The 2nd Advisory Group Meeting of Municipality of Maribor and PRIZMA was carried out online on June 1st.

The meeting was set to be as interactive as possible, as we wanted to get as much information as possible from the members about the proposed tools. After each introductory presentation of the tools, members wrote down the pros, cons, and possible improvements in the google jamboard.

Already during the presentation of each module, a lively debate developed. In the beginning, members form the Employment service of Slovenia, which will help in finding participants in the training, said that it is unlikely that other vulnerable groups will be included (such as migrants etc), so the focus will be on the elderly. 

In the CAMPUS module, most members pointed out that it would be very effective to include representatives of companies looking for such a profile of employees to get to know them during the training. They also mentioned the importance of mentoring or people who would encourage and help the participants. Concerns were expressed about the number of hours of training that participants might not gain all the knowledge and about the size of the group, that it might make more sense for the groups to be smaller. 

For the LABEL module, they welcomed the possibility of continuing the training and modules after the project is completed. They reiterated the involvement of employers in the education process so that they could make suggestions during the education process about their needs, requirements and expectations. They also suggested the inclusion of examples of good practice, as they are always positively received. When certifying, they considered it important that the certificate be recognized by companies.
