The The countdown for the establishment of the Employment and Entrepreneurship Information and Training Centre for Vulnerable Groups (KEEAED) in the Nicosia Municipality has begun, as the redevelopment work on the Finieas building in the old town, where it will be housed, has been completed and details for its official operation now remain to be finalised.
According to a Nicosia Municipality announcement, the Centre will offer information, training and support services with the ultimate aim of promoting employment and developing entrepreneurship, especially among the most vulnerable groups of the population. In particular, specialised consultants of the Centre will provide training and employment integration/reintegration programmes for people from socially vulnerable groups in the field of home care of infants, toddlers, elderly and disabled people, employment of carers and extension of home care services.
In addition, the integration and reintegration of people into the labour market will be facilitated through programmes and targeted actions that require their active participation, raising awareness of professional bodies, businesses and employers on issues related to the promotion of employment, providing all the information they need on integration and reintegration into work and referring those concerned to the Public Employment Services (PES). The Centre will promote cooperation and networking of employment support structures and institutions, identify and support the development of the business profile of the beneficiary.
All services offered by the Centre will be personalised, depending on the needs of each interested person in order to provide maximum assistance and support, both in terms of strengthening their professional profile and in relation to the development and enhancement of their social skills and competences, it is noted.
