THE FOLLOW-US TRAINING PROGRAMME FOR NEETS
PROJECT RESULT 1
The Follow-us Training Programme for NEETs is an innovative full educational plan aimed at training, motivating, and re-activating NEETs by using Social Media as core content. This unprecedented programme of 125 hours was tailor-made for the projects’ target groups and enabled them to become Community Managers who offer their services to Small and Medium enterprises.
THE TRAINER UPSKILL COURSE
PROJECT RESULT 2
The 15 days course will be designed to provide the necessary knowledge and skill to the Follow-us trainers in a convenient way: It will be structured in form of Modules and contain subjects of Social Media, Digital Marketing, Key Competence training methods and Employment & Entrepreneurship support. With this effective strategy, organisations that will implement the Follow-us Training Programme, during and after the project lifetime, will act as “Easy-access one-stop-shops” promoted by Youth Guarantee, as they will be centres where NEETs can gain training, certifications, and transition to work but also a place where they will find motivation, engagement and peer-to-peer support to avoid future marginalization.
The Follow-us Platform will be a Web and Mobile Platform, that will allow, on the one hand, SMEs to request free social media services in form of one-off jobs, and on the other hand, young people to offer these services by applying what they have learned in “The Follow-us Programme for NEETs”, with the objective to obtain a Community Manager certificate after successfully completing 10 one-off jobs.
The platform will furthermore enable students to gain experience, create a network of contacts, and increase employability. Trainers will also have their place in the App by interacting with students to answer possible questions or difficult situations that may appear.
