Methodological guide

We have developed a methodological guide which combines training, empowerment and entrepreneurship in an European level, as it goes beyond the practices currently applied in our different countries.

The proposed model seeks to develop in trainees their genuine skills, values and attitudes, and to contribute to making them competent in today’s job market using coaching and the Choice Theory, among other, as main training methodologies.

After analysing current practices in training and social and labour inclusion, the partners explored some of the most innovative models in this field, and designed -on the basis of their own experience and the results of the analysis- a new training model combining technical training elements with empowerment processes and the development of self-employment skills.

The ARACNE training model described on this guide is not a linear document but a set of contents for perusal in line with readers’ interests and needs and, above all, adaptable to the individual projects that may eventually apply the Aracne model. We have been working hard on this paper to come up with a short presentation including hyperlinks to online contents for those willing to delve into specific aspects.

The guide consists of three sections:

• the creation and development process of the ARACNE model
• ARACNE model
• set of guidelines for implementation of the model in real situations, illustrated by the example of its first experimental application.
