About Us
The Pathways project intends to develop a toolkit for adult education and career professionals who work with unemployed low-skilled adults. The toolkit will serve
the purpose of helping these two categories of professionals in recognising basic skills acquired through informal or non-formal learning contexts, as a means to
improve the employability of low-skilled adults.
Alongside the recognition of skills, the direct target group will be in the position of helping the final beneficiaries in creating their individualised learning pathway, as a means of upskilling and improving their position in the labour market, but also for self-improvement, in the context of lifelong learning promotion.
