As the In-Work project comes to an end after two years of dedicated effort, the final event “Best practices in Inclusive Work-Integrated Learning in Higher Education”, will be held to celebrate its success and present its results.
This initiative, which began in 2022, addresses the role of the university within its reference region as a driver for an inclusive culture, by developing and testing a model of intervention that focuses on the relation between the inside and the outside the university and the involvemnet of the people. The project uses the Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) method, which includes work-based learning (internships and traineeships) to support people with special needs to undertake meaningful learning experiences with the world of work.
The final event will take the form of a webinar, to ensure that everyone can participate. The webinar will be held via Microsoft Teams, on Thursday the 10 of October 2024 from 10 to 11:30 am CEST.
The event will begin with an overview of the project, and then move into a presentation of the WIL guidelines, and real-life testimonials from those involved. The event will conclude with an interactive Q&A session.
