Objective
There is an increasing number of young university graduates who, a year or more after graduating, have still failed to secure any employment. There is an even greater number whose level of employment does not utilise the advanced skills and knowledge they have acquired in their university education. This project is designed to help them acquire better career management and job hunting skills so that they might make a more effective contribution to the economies of the regions involved in the project.
The Sussex region, with its transnational partners, will develop a career management programme for use by careers counselling services within their regions. The pack will include a CD-Rom and supporting workbook to provide an open and distance learning opportunity. However, the full forty-hour programme will require graduates to liaise with a qualified career counsellor for additional tutorial support and guidance. A second CD-Rom, for use in libraries and other services providing public access to a PC facility, will be available to promote the programme. The partners will co-operate in designing the programme - promoting its use within their regions - and in evaluating the outcomes.
Impact
The impact will be the re-entry into the job market of a group of qualified and able young people with greater motivation and self confidence in their abilities.
