FUTURE

The project transferred a psychological assessment with which the skills and competences of vocational students (between the age of 14-21 years) are measured. This assessment is developed during a previous project called "Searched & Found". The previous assessment has been enhanced and modified and a geographical expansion (to the Netherlands, Germany, United Kingdom, Ireland, Turkey and Romania) of the test system has been made. At this moment the diagnostic system is ready to use in the versions of new countries such as the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, United Kingdom, Ireland, Turkey and Romania. The diagnostic system is culturally adapted by the partner countries and it contains the testing sections for the personality, interests and abilities for the youngsters aged between 14 and 21. The most important achievement of the project is an easy use of the diagnostic system, based on an online access, by the youngsters. As a result, more than 2.000 individuals in 7 countries took part in the pilot phase and executed the diagnostic system. Furthermore, more than 700 companies showed their interest in the project and enrolled on our online platform. The main impact on the target group of the project (youngsters between 14 and 21 years old) is:- Recognize their own personality traits and identity;- Insight in their skills and competences;- Knowledge about their strengths and weaknesses. The diagnostic system is now existing in versions of 11 countries including a candidate country for the EU. It is planned to expand the system to all EU countries and candidate countries. Within these activities it is planned to bring both programmes together (from the pilot project and the transfer project), integrate the existing ones and foster the activities in the new project countries. Therefore, all project partners will be informed on further project activities and will be involved in future developments to continually improve their own system.It is planned by all partners to continue the testing and integrate more training organizations, schools and counselling institutions into the project. Some of the countries will offer a course for counsellors, to learn them how to use the system. Furthermore, it is planned to integrate more companies and help them finding new trainees.
