UpGrad_Me 2.0_Research_FV_EN

3 offers a broad and varied framework of professions in the European Union, based on a European approach and the International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities of the United Nations (ISIC). This model was discussed and simplified, with the participation of different professionals involved in the project, in order to obtain a simplified table of classifications. Likewise, the competences and skills were also the result of round tables and discussion groups between different professional experts of human resources, labour counsellors, researchers and project technicians, in order to offer a wide range of transversal and specific competences that could be associated with each of the resulting professional families. In relation to the last questions, the answer is more complex. On the one hand, the competences and skills considered key to discriminating between occupational families will depend on the criteria of 83 experts in the labour field (human resources, labour counsellors, employment technicians, etc.), who have actively participated in the research by pointing out the main competences, skills and personality traits associated with each occupational family. This exercise will involve benefits and limitations, as will be seen below. On the other hand, the transferability of the contents will depend on the model used to classify the professional families and, in this sense, we are guaranteeing a common framework in the European Union, by basing the research on the NACE classification system. Secondly, the transferability of the results will depend on their validation by Stakeholder Committees that have been set up in Malta, Italy, Cyprus, and Spain, which will evaluate the results of the research, as well as the resulting Intellectual Outputs. Finally, the transferability of the research results will depend on the validation of the "UpGrad_Me Gamified Experience", in which 200 young migrants, refugees and asylum seekers from the different partner countries will have the opportunity to evaluate, not only the final result of the research, but also the model itself, through piloting sessions. Likewise, as an initial section of the project, qualitative research carried out by each of the member countries of the consortium is offered (State of the Art), which presents the current situation of the country in terms of career guidance, as well as the main guidance resources available. Thus, this research is divided into the following main sections: firstly, "Desk Research: State of the Art" which contains qualitative information on the state of the art of each consortium member country in terms of employment and career guidance; secondly, a “ Professional Families: NACE System and UpGrad_Me 2.0 Model”. Thirdly, the “UpGrad_Me 2.0 Research” and finally, a section of “Conclusions” that wi ll be useful both for young migrants, refugees, asylum seekers and newcomers, and for practitioners in the career guidance sector. Finally, this last section of conclusions will lay the foundations for the creation and design of the gamified experience of the "UpGrad_Me 2.0" project.
