Objective
The new information and communication technologies, and the rapid developments in this field demand a continuous updating of knowledge and a readiness to confront these increasingly complex demands. In particular, older workers often do not understand how these new technologies work, and how they can be used to make work easier and save time.
This project is intended to provide this target group with an unprejudiced, individual, and motivating introduction to the new information and communication technologies designed to help break down inhibitory thresholds and anxieties and build up independence and self-confidence in dealing with the new technologies. In particular, the instructors, who will mostly be unfamiliar with dealing with this target group, need to receive the appropriate training. As a result, materials on computer technology and modern office communications (among other things) will be developed, taking into account the pedagogical needs of the elderly.
Impact
The pilot project will help make older workers open to technological changes and able to meet its demands, so that they can continue to work. The project will especially address older working women in secretarial and administrative jobs, as they are particularly affected by the changes to modern forms of office communications.
