Smart technologies for improving career management skills

Project Leader: University of Camerino ITALY

ERASMUS+ Forward-Looking Cooperation Projects
The main goal of the CAREER project is to promote a better understanding of career management skills and explore the use of innovative technologies in the career management skills development process. The project thus responds to the current changes in the labour market and the increasing impact of technology. There is on-going debate and speculation about how we will work, learn and live in the future and certainty that the forms of work and skills required will constantly evolve. Career guidance services can respond to this transformation by embracing technology. Innovative use of technology can offer new forms of support, easier access to information and reach wider audiences thereby enhancing services offered. Job vacancies describe the skills to be applied in performing tasks at work; education and training programmes can deliver many forms of knowledge, skills and attitudes in specific disciplines and professions. However, very often there is limited attention paid to the skills we need to cope with complexity and change and to understand our own needs and manage our careers (e.g communication, planning, self-assessment of skills, analysing information, decision-making).
