AmuNEET<\/a> supports NEET (Not in Employment, Education or Training) youth in Sicily by facilitating their transition to employment through a work-based learning experience in another EU country to integrate them into society and the labor market.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It started at the end of June 2024 the internship experience abroad for 24 young Sicilian NEETs between 18 and 29 years old selected within the project, implemented within the ALMA<\/a> programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through a call for selection published by CESIE ETS in March 2024, a selection process was launched, which saw the participation of many young unemployed, unemployable and not engaged in training. At the end of the selection process,<\/strong> 24 boys and girls, from all over Sicily, participated in a path to prepare for departure, carrying out non-formal education activities aimed at improving and developing soft skills such as the ability to work in a team, speak in public, and organise one's own time, as well as an orientation path to understand the professional interests<\/strong> of each one and an English course to prepare for the experience abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of June, three groups of 8 participants, accompanied by the project tutors, left for the locations of Syros (Greece), Lisbon (Portugal) and T\u00e0rrega (Spain).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the destination countries, the three groups will be supported by partner organisations that will offer them assistance with accommodation, job placement and participation in training and cultural activities. <\/strong>The partner organisations have looked for companies in their territories, willing to host the trainees for 6 months, which would meet the interests and aspirations of each of the participants; at the same time, the partner organisations will organise cultural and training activities, such as language courses, which will enrich the experience of all the participants.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are then doing a work related learning experience in companies specialised in different sectors, from tourism, to education, to culture<\/strong>, where a tutor supports them in the assignment of tasks and vocational training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon their return, participants will be involved in a follow-up period during which orientation activities will be carried out to accompany them in their integration into the world of work.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opportunity to have this experience abroad is a unique opportunity for many of the participants, which will have a strong impact on their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
