The project aims to provide incentives to employers to participate with their employees in training programmes organised by Vocational Training Centres (VTCs), according to conditions and criteria set by the ANAD, to meet specific needs of the economy for highly qualified managerial and other skilled personnel in key positions, through the activation and proper utilisation of the capabilities and experience of VTCs.

Over 9 out of 10 (91.0%) participants were still in the company through which they had participated in the project.
The majority (61.4%) of employed participants reported that the degree of impact of the project on finding a better job was very good or good. More than 8 out of 10 (81.5%) employed participants stated that the degree of connection between their tasks/jobs at the time of the survey and the knowledge gained from the training programme they attended as part of the project was very good or good.

More than 6 out of 10 (63.7%) reported "improving professional knowledge and skills" as the main benefit, followed by "gaining new experience" (43.4%) and "improving personal knowledge and skills" (41.9%), with smaller percentages.
Participants reported that the degree of use of the knowledge and skills acquired through their participation in the project was very good or good (80.8%). More than 9 out of 10 (90.6%) reported that they considered the knowledge and skills acquired through their participation in the project very useful to useful. 95.3% of participants were either very satisfied or satisfied with their participation in the project and 99.0% would encourage others to participate.
In conclusion, the project appears to be largely achieving its objectives. The value of the project is particularly evident from the high degree of satisfaction expressed by participants. The aim remains to enrich and continuously improve the project, with the ultimate goal of contributing to the upgrading of human resource knowledge and skills.
