EMPLOY_S - Sport Skills for Employment

The Sport Skills for Employment (EMPLOY_S) project aims to contribute to youth athletes' employability by cataloging sport values developed at different modalities, levels and sport lifestyles into labour market skills, throught the design and test of a booklet that could be added to the CV and valuated by the employers. The proposal contains a simple but effective project design with three work packages, guaranteeing the three main tasks for its success: quality management, rigorous research and a pilot program from which to draw conclusions and recommendations based on experience. Each os these packages is leaded by a partner, based on their strengths and abilities. The consortium is composed by a sport event's organizer (Tempo Finito), a research entity (University of Zaragoza) and a multisports camps and competitions developer (Sunlive) which will ensure the achievement of all the three main aspects and quality outputs. The project is structured into 8 Project Actions (PA), distributed in the different project phases: - Preparation: Virtual Meeting 1 (PA1), EACEA Kick-Off meeting and Transnational Project Meeting 1 (PA2). - Implementation: Survey A to athletes (PA3), Transnational Project Meeting 2 (PA4) and the former athletes and employers questionare-Surevy B (PA5). A second virtual meeting is planned (PA6) before designing the Booklete (PA7 ) and testing it (PA8) in a pilot prohramme. - Evaluation will be done by satisfaction surveys, feedback interview as well as project impact indicators. Project management and disseminations are two transversal phases. EMPLOY_S will result in a evidence-based contrinution to knowledge about how to incorporate sport skills into labor market, revaluing the values ​​that sport offers our European youth. These values ​​largely coincide with some of the European values ​​that are so necessary to promote today.
