The project is based on an international, inclusive approach, supported by digital innovation, to bring together information, careers guidance, skills and career prospects.

Investment and partnership axes

  • Digital career guidance platforms
  • Service centres and facilities
  • Data and decision-making tools

  • Networks of academic and professional partners

Required need

Technology, service infrastructure, expertise, funding, and institutional, educational and digital partnerships.

Expected impact

To enhance educational success, reduce misalignment in career choices and drop-out rates, improve the match between training and employment, and make access to high-quality careers guidance more widely available, particularly for under-served groups.
