CHANCE

Midlife Career Chance (Change) - Life Long Learning

The Chance project (Midlife Career Chance/Change – Life Long Learning) responds to the need to support people aged 50+ in career change and entrepreneurship through an open online course (MOOC). The aim is to create a multilingual, practice-oriented course based on research into the needs of the target group, continuously adapted according to feedback, and offering a micro-credential upon completion as proof of competences.

WP2 – MOOC Development

WP2 – MOOC Development

The aim of this work package is to create content and an e-learning platform: the partners will carry out desk research and surveys among people aged 50+ and, based on the findings, prepare six chapters (e.g. financial planning, marketing, stress & work-life balance) plus a “legal essentials” module for each country. At the same time, online and audiovisual materials will be created and continuous revisions will take place.

WP3 – MOOC Pilot

WP3 – MOOC Pilot

The course will be piloted in five countries with a target of 70 trained participants per country. The activities include internal training of two mentors per partner, collection of feedback, and a follow-up workshop to adjust the course. A questionnaire survey will then be conducted to finalise improvements to both methodology and content.

WP4 – Dissemination and Exploitation

WP4 – Dissemination and Exploitation
