The essence of the project is to fulfil the gap of adequate guidance for the Deaf by establishing vocational guidance standards based on the “Vocational Guidance Standard for Deaf People” created by the Austrian partner institute within the scope of LEONARDO Pilot Project VOGS. For this purpose the European vocational guidance model for the Deaf will be created, tested and approved in three partner states during the same period. The resulting establishment process and experiences in different backgrounds will test the basic VOGS in new circumstances, disseminate and complete it. The completed VOGS model will be integrated into existing vocational guidance systems through the training of practising counsellors and the validation of VOGS+ by national authorities.
