Barriers for the participation of unqualified workers in company administered training programs

Objective

OBJECTIVES
This project is based on the following statistical observation: low-skilled people take very little part in continuing training measures organised by enterprises or government employment authorities. The partners in this project propose to carry out an in-depth study to enable them to identify the causes of this low rate of participation and to propose suitable means of remedying this deficit. This is intended to reduce the particularly high unemployment risks to which this category of workers is exposed, increase their work satisfaction and their potential for career development.

ACTIVITIES
The partnership is carrying out an empirical social study in the partner countries to find out why low-skilled people take so little part in vocational training courses offered by enterprises and the public sector. Based on the results obtained, the partners will consider what measures should be implemented at all levels to encourage their access to and participation in training. They will then prepare recommendation guides and tools for trainers, government employment authorities and business owners and publish the results of the study and their main lines of thought in order to develop a wider range of solutions.

PRODUCTS
Production of recommendation guides, tools and manuals for the various players involved in continuing training in order to increase the participation of low-skilled people in training measures.
