2nd International Webinar -
‘Self-assessment approaches for adult learners’
MOVE-UP initiative aims to improve approaches for self-assessment activities with adult learners to support their participation in upskilling pathways.
The MOVE-UP project is developing a flexible and quality upskilling pathway for unemployed women who are dedicating most of their time and efforts to the role of mother and who are in need to (re) join education activities and the job market.

Outreach Strategy is officially out!
Key takeaways on the development phase:
-
The main target group in the four collaborating countries varies in profiles and characteristics throughout the strategy's design phases.
-
These women are vulnerable to social exclusion due to gender, education, and employment factors. The transition to parenthood is a critical period, often exacerbating inequalities and intersectional discrimination, further intensified by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
-
The MOVE-UP stakeholder approach aims to mobilise stakeholders in different countries in developing and implementing activities.
-
Peer learning and reviewing methodologies involve practitioners, foster systemic change for lifelong learning, and promote gender equality.
-
The Adult Education systems must adopt a gender-oriented approach, considering women's specific needs and skills acquired as mothers.
MOVE-UP - International Webinar ‘’Reaching out to adult learners: Key success factor for upskilling pathways’’
What are we working on?
The first phase of activities of the MOVE-UP project International Alliance are focusing on investigating and sharing experiences on the best approach to outreach to adults’ learners, to support them in accessing education activities and possibly the labour market.
This first International Alliance Webinar focuses on challenges and enablers for ALE organisations (Adult Learning and Education) to reach, inform, guide and mentor adult women to join or re-join the education system, from the perspective of policy makers, educators and the learners themselves.
If you are interested in supporting adults to re-join education activities and to enhance Personal Social and Learning competences as well as basic skills (literacy, digital, financial etc.), we invite you to join us this online seminar on 16 November at 16.00 CET, to give us feedback on our outreach strategy and share your experiences and good practices on how to improve adult participation in education across Europe.
