MigraCode Sweden
The project was inspired by the first Migracode, Migracode Spain (2018-3-ES02-KA205-012299), where the main goal was to match two main needs and contexts:
- the demand for digital skills in the EU labour market and
- the need for the vulnerable to have equal access to opportunities in education and employment.
Hence, the idea is to replicate its scope in the local communities, by starting a new Coding School. In this project, these NGOs are the Föreningen Framtidståget & Ticket2Europe. The expansion of digital upskilling and employability skills schools network will enable the implementation of good-case practices that will be generated through the Project’s activities.
We have designed 3 short-term training events that will cover different but important aspects of social integration and IT Industry: Vocational Training, Skills Certification, Employability & Hiring Processes Standardization, Increase of Graduation Rate and The role of Youth Work in these aspects above).
