Since the WBL Training Platform envisages significant focus on digital and green occupations, our pledge until the end of 2023 is to have at least 20 trainees that would have gone through the work-based learning in the ICT companies/occupations i.e. Junior Full Stack Developer or Blockchain Junior Developer.
The E2E improves the position of youth on the Serbian labour market through modernization of youth employment policies and the development of young skilled labour demanded by the private sector.
The main purpose of the Call for Employers is to provide technical and financial assistance to private sector employers in need of qualified labour force, through the organization of various work-based learning opportunities via the WBL Training Platform for current or future jobseekers, mainly focusing on youth under 30 years of age, but not excluding other potential participants, particularly from vulnerable groups. The E2E promotes decent work and will support companies who offer decent employment conditions.
The Work-Based Learning Training Platform covers various programs/windows depending on the specific characteristics of the beneficiaries and the needs of companies:
1. Standard E2E Work-Based Learning Program for 2-6 training months for unemployed persons without formal qualifications and work experience in the envisaged occupation.
2. Short-term traineeship for 1-2 months, with the option to extend up to 4 months for jobs that require higher education, particular for the following target groups:
a. unemployed persons with formal qualifications and/or work experience and for students of the final years of VET schools/university in the requested profile or
b. integration into workplaces that do not require previous formal qualifications/experience.
3. Upskilling/reskilling for 1-4 months intended for current workers younger than 30 years and hard-to-place persons regardless of the age engaged on flexible forms or definite/indefinite employment contracts. Further info is provided in Window 3 description.
