Right Skills 4U
Skills and abilities in the centre of career orientation
The Right Skills 4U can be considered as the continuation of a Right Profession I. and II., as well as Dual Transfer project, however this project focuses on different challenges, than our previous projects.
The success of our projects; the topic itself - the vocational training; the excellent cooperation between the project partners; as well as the results of the implemented activities are also proven by the fact that the Dual Transfer project won the European Commission's Special Award in the Interreg Slam competition for the European Year of Youth in 2022.
As the world, the society and thus the youngsters constantly change, so should the vocational education system adjust to the students both in Hungary and Slovenia. Chambers and other institutions have an important coordinating role in vocational education, so the largest challenge for them is to reach and address youngsters – that they not only hear, but also listen to what is intended for them. The European Commission declared the year 2023 the European Year of Skills, which absolutely supports the thematic of our project. Our aim is to guide our youngsters into the right direction considering the constantly changing labour market needs, to draw their attention to their abilities and skills which should play a crucial role in the career choice. Our long-term goal is to reduce unemployment and by the strengthening and exploiting the suitable competences we can increase the competitiveness of Slovenian and Hungarian SMEs and contribute to the sustainable growth.
The European Commission placed skill development in the centre of the European Union’s policy agenda, aiming to support skill development and acquisition of new skills, as well as the public and private investment in people’s abilities. Our plan is to visit and test the Talentcenter in Graz, and to study the legitimacy of a similar, establish-to-be centre in the Slovenian-Hungarian border region.
The founding strategy prepared in the project will present the justification of this career orientation institution.
We direct the attention of decisionmakers the presumed positive result of the strategy, and support
The presumed positive outcome of the strategy will be directed to the attention of decisionmakers, and the establishment of a joint, Slovenian-Hungarian, professionally founded career orientation centre will be supported. It is important, that skills are relevant to labour market needs, so we will cooperate also with the enterprises to achieve this. To exploit the opportunities in the labour market, more effective, efficient and inclusive investments in the development of training and vocational education is needed.
With the activities planned in the Right Skills 4U project, we would like to guide the concerned institutions in the establishing and strengthening efficient communication with the youth; as well as we support the career choice that suits the abilities and skills of youngsters. An action plan will be prepared with the involvement of professionals, to highlight those communication forms that can address the young generation. Besides providing relevant information, our primary task is to call youngsters attention to a career choice that is suited for their abilities and skills, since this could be the basis of their professional promotion and balanced future.
Our activities will be achieved by a new and innovative way, utilizing the resources of digital opportunities, giving a new approach to the way of reaching and communicating with youngsters.
We want to pay special attention to skills essential for the green and digital transition, as businesses need such workforce.
As a result of our project, we will further strengthen the professional collaboration between the institutions of project partners, the common thinking, and the joint management of problems in the Slovenian-Hungarian border region, as well as the mapping of solution opportunities.
The Right Skills 4U project is co-financed by the European Union within the Interreg program Slovenia-Hungary 2021-2027.
