About the project
This project includes 10 partners from: Serbia, Romania, Greece, Lithuania, Slovakia, Turkey, Spain, Bulgaria
and FYROM, gathered together to implement the project "EU school of T-skills & self-employment" applied
by Youth organization of Europe for International Cooperation from Serbia.
Youth employment is a priority for the European Union. One of the biggest challenges that youth is facing
today is the economic and social crisis, a scenario that has had a major impact on the life of all European
youngsters, challenging them to struggle with unacceptable youth unemployment rates and the decrease
of quality education, training and job opportunities.
Modern, knowledge-based economies require people with higher and more relevant skills. Most employers
believe soft skills are important to their business and over half rated them more highly than academic qual-

employers expect employees to have: social skills; communication; and higher-order thinking skills (includ-

control and positive self-concept - the skills that will be tackled during the activities of project which are:
1. Coordination meeting 2. T-skills Training course 3. Self-employment Training course 4. Online final evaluation meeting Methods used: team building exercises, brainstorming, round tables, working in a pairs, problem solving
