Objective
OBJECTIVES
By the year 2000, 80 % of new jobs will be filled by women. Women have the skills of flexibility - and of co-operative rather than competitive team working, yet they often lack the confidence to return to the labour market, or if already in work, to progress beyond the lowest level. This project will give women the confidence and skills to make the best use of their talents in situations where they may face discrimination and lack of equal opportunities. The partner wish to help them gain access to management positions, in which they are under-represented, and to gain influence over the decision making processes in their workplaces. The project will involve confidence building, career and life planning, goal setting, assertiveness, stress reduction and putting oneself across positively. It will adapt and transfer existing distance learning materials, designed for non-management women, which facilitate personal and career review.
ACTIVITIES
The partners will translate, contextualise and 'culturalise' existing distance learning materials. A small group of women will be recruited in each Member State to train as trainers to deliver the supporting programme for the distance learning materials. The adapted materials will be piloted in end user sites in each of the Member States.
PRODUCTS
The project will produce a 300 page workbook of distance learning materials for participants to work through and a training manual for the trainers. The training manual will enable the trainers to run the workshop programmes and to train the helpers and familiarise themselves with the organisation in which they are running the programme.
