According to a study by the European Commission, the percentage of the population aged 18-24 with at most lower secondary education and not in further education or training at EU-27 was 14,4 in 2009.
Even though this average is above the percentage found for the partner countries of the CESSIT Project with the exception of Portugal (with 31,2%), the numbers vary from 5,3 % (for Poland) to 13,9 % (for Latvia).
As such, projects such as CESSIT are of great importance as it will directly impact on the quality and effectiveness of training for early school leavers, and indirectly impact on a trainee’s employability, European competitiveness and social cohesion through its effective dissemination and exploitation – an innovative combination of key competencies, target group and methodology.
