FROM LITERACY TO DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING
Despite the fact that the education of adults is in many cases conceived as a basic education focused mostly on social and personal fulfillment, adults have a great potential for employability if they receive an adequate training matching the needs of companies. This is especially true for adults between the ages of 18 and 30 who neither study nor work.

In the new production models generated in recent years, the innovation and technology sector stands out in a striking way, since it became in 2018 one of the sectors with the greatest capabilities for growth and hiring.

This sector has a wide variability of jobs with very diverse profiles (from researchers to staff without degrees) and it can be a great opportunity for our beneficiary group, not only for the real possibilities of employability, but also for offering a striking and motivating objective for these adults. But in order to access these jobs, it is essential that they develop some specific skills.

FROM LITERACY TO DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING is a project aimed at structuring the learning of these adults through a complete itinerary adapted to employability in the technology sector, from the most basic stages of adult training to the basic knowledge required by technology companies through the development of digital and technological skills, such as scientific thinking, critical analysis, and digital skills.
PREPARATION STAGE

The preparation stage has made it possible to define the work teams and the contents of the various results (intellectual outputs, tangible, and structural), and to strengthen the ties of an intersectoral partnership comprised of cooperatives, universities, VET centers, and technology companies.

IMPLEMENTATION STAGE

The implementation stage allowed to carry out very diverse activities, including Transnational Meetings, virtual meetings, and national activities aimed at developing the project’s results -like its Intellectual Outputs and tangible or structural results- and pilot tests that validate the materials.

Slider

DISSEMINATION STAGE

The dissemination and visibility stage made the project visible from its beginning and intensified towards its end. Partners spread information about it and promote the use of its results through activities aimed at the most appropriate multipliers, to achieve a great impact on the beneficiaries.

EVALUATION STAGE

The evaluation stage is transversal to the entire project, and allowed us to monitor it to avoid any issues on the quality of its results, being able to adjust the budget or the schedule.

CUSTOMIZED COURSE FOR THE DIGITAL TRAINING OF ADULT PERSONS
The main result of this project is a virtual training course with three educational levels, structured and approved by lifelong learning centers in Europe, and certified through the digital badge DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING DIPLOMA, which is compatible with the curriculum of adult education LITERACY FOR DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING.

This course proposes learning adapted to adults, building its contents through specific itineraries of improvement, identification, and monitoring of capabilities, with a learning offer adapted to the individual needs of the student, and based on a flexible and digital learning methodology.

Starting from an initial evaluation of the student, a personalized itinerary will be established with the necessary contents and materials. This course will be structured into three levels:

INITIAL LEVEL: Basic literacy from a technological perspective.

This level focuses on the basic literacy of the student with low or without qualifications, in order to improve their reading, writing, and math skills. It includes specific materials and contents for the development of basic skills, all of it through a technological perspective that develops critical analysis.

ADVANCED LEVEL: digital training through critical thinking.

This level is focused on developing the competences of initiative and entrepreneurship, critical thinking and analysis, and especially the digital skills of adult students through all the above. Scientific thinking is also worked on as a basis for future employability in the digital sector.

EXPERT LEVEL: Basic technological training and scientific thinking for employability.

This level specifically focuses on the skills and abilities required by the technology sector, among which are the processes of analysis, job responsibilities, teamwork, responsibility, initiative, and innovation. It is specifically aimed at basic technological training for employability, but it is also intended to serve as a key progress to improve the inclusion of students in the educational system.

FROM LITERACY TO DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING
A project that aims to guide young adults from basic training to training for employment in the technological sector, through a virtual and personalized learning.
What people say about us

This project is very interesting for adult students who want to improve their employability in the technology sector and/or rejoin the educational system to achieve higher qualifications. The large number of learning pills that make up the online course allow the development of all the student’s key skills based on an innovative methodology that is dynamic, flexible, and adapted to the needs of adult students. The Guide for Trainers also is considered very useful, since it facilitates the teaching work of the education professionals who will implement this course.

Ana García, Primary Education Teacher.

The STRUCTURED AND PERSONALIZED COURSE FOR THE DIGITAL TRAINING OF ADULTS: FROM LITERACY TO DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING is very complete and of good quality. That is why it is considered that this project can provide adult students with ways to re-enter the educational system and improve their employability. Also, an online format allows to reach a greater number of students from all over Europe due to its great flexibility to study at any time and place. This is reinforced by the micro e-Learning methodology implemented in the course that allows students to advance at their own pace through short learning pills that can be solved in less than an hour.

David Chorda, Primary Education Teacher.

“The results of this project are very relevant to enhance the educational inclusion of adult students with difficulties. The online course FROM LITERACY TO DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING, contains a wide variety of learning activities that, in addition to enhancing the students’ motivation through practical and day-to-day cases, also facilitates the acquisition of all key competences.
I find the contents of the learning activities for the development of critical thinking and labor skills and rights especially interesting.
The Manual for trainers is also very relevant, since it makes it easier for teachers to implement the course adapted to different contexts, whether on-site, mixed, or distance learning.”
