"<< Background >>The project partnership came together and worked in the design of this project because its members believe that through its completion several benefits can be accomplished:- all partners expect to develop and share innovative practices and promote cooperation; by performing peer learning and exchanging experiences in diverse fields of expertise, they will be able to enhance technical and transversal skills.- the partnership is able to leverage its project management competencies at an international level and shape a cross-border collaborative professional network. - reach wider and more distant audiences but to help reap the full benefits of globalisation in local contexts.- evaluate partner organisations' current performance and design improvement plans. - increase their visibility and recognition, and open doors to further participation in collective developments. As related to the target groups, the following needs plan to be addressed:1. Adult educators/trainers of partner organisations, educational institutions, public bodies, and every other personnel involved in adult training: Access a proper training and preparation that can train them for appropriately attending migrants’ necessities and favour their integration into the local context; acquire and enhance skills and capabilities relevant to that purpose. 2.Adult immigrants at risk of social exclusion and with unfavourable conditions: - Their successful integration into their host environment; accessing work opportunities that allow them to carry a dignified life and be professionally competitive in the local labour market. - for their formerly acquired skills, knowledge and experience to be evaluated, recognised and valued. - develop the employability skills and competencies they lack but need to live and work in their new home country. The project aims at developing an effective immigrant qualifications and competencies recognition and validation process. - provide immigrants with equitable access to appropriate learning: with the aim of improving their employability, broadening their skills, as well as encouraging retraining and professional specialisation.<< Objectives >>The main objective of this project is to offer proper training and effective tools to adult educators, so they are capable of recognising, assessing and validating migrants’ employability skills and core competencies, previous work experience and other relevant attributes. More specifically:- Offer effective solutions to facilitate migrants’ social integration and access to training and employment. - Contribute to the professionalisation of adult educators’ work; promote the acquisition of soft skills to strengthen their professional development. - Promote interregional and international cooperation within the education sector. - Foster European values and goals.<< Implementation >>The project includes three transnational meetings:-Kick-off meeting-ReSkill Methodology Meeting-Intermediate Monitoring and Testing MeetingDuring these meetings workshops, collaborative investigation sessions, reports, and other relevant material will be used in order to address and approach each phase/subject of the project. In relation to the project results five different phases have been planned that will include practical and theoretical sessions such as round tables, brainstorming sessions, interactive games, educative videos, and presentations. The phases are:A1 – PREPARATION PHASEA2 – ADULT EDUCATORS TRAININGA3 – TESTINGA4 – “ReSkill” FINAL SETTINGA5 – WEBSITE<< Results >>The project Innova intends to develop the following outcomes and results:- design a replicable, scalable, and malleable project model and specialised methodology to guide adult educators in validating migrants’ skills and recognising abroad previous working experience.- carry out a training for educators where they exchange best practices, share knowledge and promote the integration of non-formal activities.- develop an online platform to hold project results and make them available for a wider audience, create holistic learning experiences and allow people from around the globe to take advantage of the developed tools, for free. - a written report of the documented process held along the project for migration-related data analysis and further action implementation.- Hold 4 local partnerships (1 per partner country) between project members, stakeholders, third-party organisations, educational institutions, and/or public bodies, aimed to enhance the dissemination potential of the project. - Hold 4 multiplier events (1 per partner country) to disseminate the project’s main aspects, highlight its benefits and attract more collaborators/beneficiaries. - The training of 200 adult educators and/or related workers through the creation and execution of an ""immigrant skill validation and recognition"" programme.- The evaluation of 1000 migrants' performance under the “ReSkill” methodology and correlative tools."

"According to the 2015 Eurydice Report, the average summer holidays in Portugal, Bulgaria, Cyprus and Greece was about 11-13 weeks. Could this non-working period be occupied in a useful and productive way so that young people can acquire skills and competencies that are not promoted in formal education? Are the families and educators available all over this period to support and accompany their children? Does the territory has any alternatives to offer for the occupation of the younger? On other hand, Non-formal learning has been acknowledged widely in the last decade proving unique opportunity to involve young people in activities on a voluntary basis and to develop their skills. Having all of the above in mind, the ‘SUMMER e-CHALLENGE” project was designed aiming, first of all, using the summer non-school time in order to promote the acquisition, recognition and validation of basic and soft skills, with emphasis on digital skills, that young people gain in non-formal learning opportunities, so that they become transparent, visible and useful for their academic and adult life. As for its main activity, the project proposed the introduction of an innovative ""Summer eChallenge Programme” (4 Summer Camps held one in each of the partner countries - Portugal, Bulgaria, Cyprus and Greece) which young people (10-16 yo) could participate on a voluntary basis in order to acquire a combination of skills, competencies, knowledge and attitudes that are considered essential for personal fulfillment and development, active citizenship, social inclusion and employment. It is in essence a self-directed, non-competitive, voluntary, flexible, and adaptable scheme of non-formal learning activities based on young people's' personal development. The programme provided holistic opportunities away from subject boundaries for young people to acquire record, recognize and validate those key competencies and transversal skills, while developing personal qualities which are not so much emphasized in formal education. In doing so young people could be guided in an effective and constructive way towards a better career selection, bridging the mismatch between skills and the demands of the future labor market. The main outputs of the project include, besides the comprehensive framework of skills (entrepreneurial, digital, soft skills) and the 4 Summer eChallenge Programmes, a dynamic and interactive e-Learning tool, based on cutting-edge technology, designed to manage the implementation of the programme, and to record, present and support young people's learning. As well, a dissemination guide, a project website and a social network page were produced to facilitate the communication and dissemination of the project and of its results.Direct impact is acknowledged on the target groups, namely on their performance, motivation, confidence and self-esteem, as their progress could be closely monitored and reviewed, while a closer skills match and career orientation was envisioned. The participation, communication and active citizenship of young people could as well be improved and new synergies between stakeholders was initiated (third party institutions, such as schools and parents associations were involved and motivated to support new Summer eChallenge initiatives in the nearest future). Through the Joint training of staff implemented, the digital skills of youth workers and educators, and their skills to work with non-formal methods were as well upgraded and their professional profiles developed thus enriching their quality of work.The Summer eChallenge Programme was based on the principles of a research project cycle seeking its continuous adaptation to different contexts of implementation and variations in the profile of the target groups, and the openness and accessibility for its main technical resources, being thus prompt to be replicated in the same or in other educational contexts."
