The situation of older workers at the labour market is very complicated. Current Europe faces the rising unemployment of older workers and many potential employers have ageist assumptions against them. Therefore the aim of the project is to contribute to the improvement of the skills and competencies of older workers on the European labour market. The objective is through the exchange of good practices between private and not for profit entities to come up with the methodology and training module which will address the needs of the current labour market for the citizens 50+ and provide the basis for other educating centres and organisations with regard to the education of the older workers.
The project partnership consists of 7 partners: Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Spain and Sweden.
Within the project the market research aimed at the situation of older workers on the labour market and on their skills are conducted. The main outputs of the project are the methodology and the training module for the target group that will be tested during the project. The outputs are based on the exchange of best practices and summarise the experience of all partners in this fields.
The results of the project are freely available online for all interested stakeholders and therefore result in long-term benefits for the European community. The project has impact on the participants, the participating organisations, the target group, and the stakeholders. The project forms effective partnership of organisations active in the field of the employment and education of the older workers that will bring wider benefits for European community.
