We are at work too

Description

In order to achieve smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, which is one of the objectives of the EU 2020, it's vitally important to obtain employment, productivity and new skills. PISA Director Andreas Schleicher: “If you're from disadvantaged areas, there's only one chance in your life: to get good education. The main issue in education is that the needy gets the best education.” According to the European Disability Academic Network (ANED) report published in January 2018, the rate of mild and moderate disability at EU level is 17.1%. While the employment rate of non-disabled individuals in EU28 countries was 73.1%, the rate of disabled individuals remained at 47.4%. European Special Education Needs and Integration Education Agency says “individuals with special education needs are often categorized as marginal or at risk of social exclusion in relation to the labour market.” So, it's important to ensure that vocational education should be of a high standard, suitable for individual needs of students, and all groups are integrated, especially those with disabilitiesWithin the scope of the project, in our needs analysis;a)65% of parents in partner countries come from low education and socio-economic levelb)72% of parents stated that they had never received a professional education for the special situation of their children.c)54% of teachers stated that students could not be successful in career due to their inability to continue their skills at school/at home.d)It has been determined that the most common problems faced by students who graduated from the Department of Food and Beverage Services are personal hygiene (self-care skills), courtesy, social skills and working skills.The aim of the project is to provide better social and self-care skills at home (in the family) with a holistic approach for the mentally disabled students who are educated in special education vocational schools and to increase the employability of these students after graduation in their own fields by taking a higher quality vocational education at the standards demanded by the labour market. For this purpose, there will be 5 intellectual output(IO), 5 transnational project meetings(TPM), 3 learning teaching training activities(LTT), 4 multiplier events(M) and local trainings for students and their parents. Two people will participate in the TPM meetings of the project and these will be project coordinators and managers from the partner countries. A total of 30 teachers, project coordinators and managers from special education vocational schools will participate in LTT activities. The project will be carried out in the field of developing innovation and 5 outputs will be developedThese are;O1 Research on Family Education and students’ vocational qualificationsO2 Family Education ProgramO3 Supportive vocational training modules for studentsO4 Handbook for TrainersO5 E-Learning PlatformTwo learning-teaching training activities will be carried out for the testing of project intellectual outputs and training of trainers3 national and 1 international multiplier events will be organized for dissemination of IOs. A total of 240 people will attend these conferencesWe plan to use qualitative and quantitative indicators to monitor management meetings, intellectual outputs, training activities, dissemination activities and project products throughout the project.Konya Il MEM will plan and follow the process in coordination with our university partner SSW and tech partner VITECO in order to ensure that all project activities have good quality results in terms of quantity and quality. Quality control, monitoring and successful implementation of the activities will be discussed at TPMs. In order to evaluate whether our project has achieved its objectives, we will use the most commonly used PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle to project management. Accordingly, the success indicators we have identified earlier will be a guide for us.The potential short and long term benefits are;Parents of the students who are studying in the partner schools will benefit from the training activities at schools and other parents from different schools will benefit from e-learning platform and dissemination conferences. So that they will complete these trainings and will support their children at home for their vocational education. In this way, they will not only improve their own personal development but will also contribute to their children's education in the home environment for a better future and career. The most important target group in our project, the students who are studying in the department of food and beverage services, will receive support from their families as well as the problems they face in business life will be completed with supportive training modules and they will be ready for the work life. Employment and job attendance rates will increase and they will be able to have the job as the demanded personnel demanded by employers
