CALL FOR PROPOSALS - CONCEPT NOTE

Folkeuniversitetet will share their experience in working with young NEETs in cooperation with
companies and government institutions from two IPS projects like:

- Second Chance School “ The Norwegian approach. One will find a Second Chance
School(SCS) in many European countries. Although they are named SCS, they have different
programs, methods and framework. FU will share how IPS works in this project, with focus on
creating, implement and conduct individual training and tutoring at the workplace.

- Cultural Patrol An innovative method. Concept developed by FU for the past 4 years, now
receiving both national and international attention because of used methods and the good
results. The culture patrol consist of young adults who have been outside school and work life
for a long time. Often these have lack of self-confident, bad self-esteem, bad habits (diet, sleep
and physical activity) etc. This means they need more time than other NEETs to find and get a
job. Key factors in the project is allowing the participants to train and work on issues that
interest them, gives energy, ex. culture, music, ICT, etc. FU will share how IPS is conduct
together with government institutions for young NEETs that are most far away from the labour
market.
