improve your skills
and increase your chances on the labour market
What is the project about?
The main objective of the SILVER project is to create and implement a distance training
which would help to improve skills and employability of people over 50 years old. Our mission is to support the discussion with all the relevant stakeholders (employers, training institutions, career advisors), in order to identify the constraints of seniors in access to qualification and employment and expand the lifelong learning and "silver economy" concepts in companies and training organizations.
The primary objective of our project is to improve qualifications and competences of 50+ people by creating and implementing an innovative training. In order to create a training which will match the requirements of this target group, we will do research and analysis work, we will talk to relevant stakeholders and seniors, send out questionnaires to seniors and employers and analyze them afterwards.
We believe the training will help people over 50 years old to become more confident when looking for a job or when trying to (re)integrate on the labour market.
