Being a parent seems to be an obstacle for employment and it causes often dropouts at work, especially for mothers . At the same time to become parents forces people to acquire precious skills that are required in the job market. Being a parent is, for instance: leadership, problem solving, time management, scheduling skills, money management and much more. According to Eurostat as of July 2018, an 8,3% of active people in EU is unemployed, with Italy having a 10,9% unemployment rate, 15,2% in Spain, 6,2% in Sweden, 5,6% in Slovenia, 3,9% in Malta and 3,6% in Hungary. Among the youth (aged under 25) the rate of unemployment in EU is at 15,2%, being 32,6% in Italy, 34,1% in Spain, 5,5% in Malta, 10% in Slovenia, 15,8% in Sweden and 9,9% Hungary. Our target group is composed of: - Young parents ith difficulties to access the job market - Young parents that had to leave job and want to re-access - Youth workers working with young people in risk of social exclusion - Youth workers working in digital competences - NGO, associations and other organisations working in youth education The aim of PSAJO was to increase the employability of the young parents by providing a comprehensive training programme that will enable the recognision and development of informal skills acquired during parenting, and apply them in a future job. - Enhance the employability of young parents who saw their studying development suddenly interrupted - Increase the availability of informal skills recognition tools - Improving the digital teaching skills of trainers to enable them to deliver trainings online - Decrease the youth unemployment rate in the most affected countries The partnership is composed of 6 partners from 6 EU countries of different organisations and institutions (NGOs, SMEs, youth organisations) with vast experience in the fields of training and social integration. Each partner has coordinated one or more important task according to their experience and professional relevance when implementing PSAJO project. During the project, two main intellectual outputs have been developed: - E-learning Platform available at https://psajo.inerciadigital.com for the delivery of the training programme (O1) which provides young learners with the training programme needed to recognise and improve the managerial and useful labour market skills acquired through the parenthood, as well as with a means to communicate with the trainers and other learners and share experiences and knowledge. - Training Programme on Parenthood Skills in the Job Market (O2), the main result of PSAJO, aims to identify, recognise, and apply informally acquired parenting skills into valuable job skills. The project implemented a final pilot phase to test and fine-tune the outputs with the target group and produce high quality deliverables, ready to be used by youth organisations, educational organisations complementing their trainings and counseling activities. All deliverables are be available in English, Swedish, Spanish, Slovenian, Hungarian, Italian, Maltese.
