Mentoring for employability

‘Mentoring for Employability’ is a 9-day Training Course aimed at increasing young people’s participation in the labour market by improving youth workers and youth organizations’ capacities in mentoring young people for employability.
The objectives of the activity are:
  • To deepen youth workers’ understanding on the importance of mentoring for employability,
  • To provide youth workers and youth organizations tools, methods, and techniques in mentoring young people for employment,
  • To provide youth workers examples of mentorship practices in actively supporting young people’s sense of initiative and entrepreneurship,

The objectives will be addressed by gathering 29 participants from 10 partner organizations to work across nationalities and cultures, enhancing creative competence and innovation by broadening their idea process and knowledge within the field of youth work.

The Training Course will take place between the 10th – 20th December 2021, the 10th being arrival day and the 20th being departure day.
