One of the main priorities of Erasmus + programme is tackling youth unemployment and providing more opportunities for career development and entrepreneurship. Lack of trainings for soft skills in formal education system, which are with great importance in the process of job seeking, is one of the reasons for increasing the number of unemployed young people. With this project we aim at increasing the chances of young people for employability and improving their career prospects. We believe that development of soft skills in the context of the employability is a factor for increasing the chances of young people to present themselves successfully in the selection of candidates and to demonstrate professionalism in the beginning of their career. The target group that we focus on is young people between 18 and 25 years old, who are young graduates and/or job seekers.
