1st TRANSNATIONAL PARTNER MEETING IN PARIS

  • by

On November 18th and 19th, we had the Transnational Partner Meeting in Paris. It was the first time that the partners saw each other in person, due to the COVID-19 situation.

Although the online meetings have allowed the Project to continue at a good pace, having been able to work for two days in person, has been highly effective, both to strengthen the partnership and to move forward with the project and setting the next steps to follow.

During the first day, we reviewed the project in a general way, and we focused on analyzing the situation of the first project result – what we call Intellectual Output 1 (IO1) – and, in concrete, an interactive map we are preparing with the results of a wide research survey conducted with questionnaires among two main focus groups: VET learners and employees aged 50+ and VET providers, to identify the real needs of these two groups and the demanded skills, especially digital ones, that the current conditions impose them to be trained into.

We also go through the structure of the second project result (IO2), the How to stay gOLD guide, which is a digital soft skill on Work-Life Balance: A modular training tool with transversal soft skills applied in teleworking settings focusing on maintaining a balance between the personal and professional life.

Regarding the third result of the project (IO3), the training modules, our colleagues from KAINOTOMIA took the floor to explain the third result of the project (IO3), and we were working on the content and the deadlines we have to meet in the next months.

Finally, we were talking about the different evaluations carried out so far in the project, to ensure we are raising the objectives we have defined.

During the second day of the meeting, we focused on the dissemination activities, like the newsletters of the project and the current situation of the social media and website. We also established the next steps and activities of the project.

With this, we ended our workday and gave time to visit the beautiful city of Paris. We will meet again in Greece, on May 24th and 25th of next year.
