THE PROJECTLLFW aims to address the barriers to
employment/employability experienced by migrant workers and
other minority ethnic groups who require support to learn
the language skills they require for employment. Free movement of labour within the European Union has resulted in both the UK and partner countries needing to respond in the VET (vocational education and training) context to the employability needs of migrant workers and other minority ethnic groups who experience labour market disadvantage particularly but not exclusively in relation to the language barrier. Transnational co-operation allows the partner countries to develop programmes to support the VET process with migrant workers and other minority ethnic groups enabling the sharing and dissemination of best practice and a co-ordinated approach to addressing the needs of migrant workers and other minority ethnic groups. Through a partnership of European countries, LLFW will enhance the quality of the VET process through the development and provision of a standardised quality assured learning language for work programme in each partner country’s mother tongue designed to support the learning and employability needs of migrant workers and other minority ethnic groups thus improving the skills of the workforce in each |
