International training plan for the qualification of young women

Objective

Research has shown that there is great need for supporting the advancement of young women (up to 27) in the hotel and restaurant business. This three-year project will investigate and establish the optimum teaching methods needed to enable women to obtain additional qualifications, to improve their prospects, and in doing so link together all factors such as job, leisure, career, etc.

The aim of the project is to expand the negotiating skills and key qualifications of young women entrepreneurs by means of teaching software delivered via the Internet.

To produce the teaching software, research will be carried out to determine the national and sectoral background conditions of the catering and hotel keeping trades in the countries participating in the project. First, a trial version of the software will be produced and tested. The teaching software will be produced with the aim of preparing the next professional generation (especially young female entrepreneurs) for national examinations and trade qualifications. Internet teaching software will be developed on a practical, didactic-methodological, and academic level and this will enable female entrepreneurs to obtain qualifications through independent study.

Impact
Through the use of the learning software, know-how of young female entrepreneurs will be transferred to the upcoming generation in SMEs. In addition, the young entrepreneurs themselves will improve their negotiating skills and key qualifica-tions. Participant mobility will be increased and possibilities will be created for optimising work time and adapting it exactly to their individual circumstances.
