| Purpose and classifications - Intervention - (Value) | Through this pilot project, the Flemish Service for Employment and Vocational Training (VDAB) is looking to get youngsters in Antwerp who are difficult to reach – the so-called 'NEETs' (Not in Education, Employment or Training) in particular - into work. BeCode provides low-threshold training courses in day-time education, familiarising young people with digital technologies. For the youngsters who enrol, the training is free of charge. BeCode works both on their technical skills, such as building a website or a mobile application, and their soft skills, such as creativity, problem solving, working in a team and project management. |
