Franchise Details
Sector: Education
Key social purpose:
The aim of the scheme is to offer training to the young long-term unemployed. Based on a ground-breaking method developed by social entrepreneur Sandra Schürmann, JobAct® uses theatrical teaching techniques to prepare young adults for career and life challenges.
Key elements of your franchise offer:
The projects are targeted specifically at unemployed young adults and are based on a three-block educational method of JobAct®. Participants learn professional skills (Block 1) in combination with social skills (Block 2). These are underpinned by individual, creative approaches to boost self-confidence (Block 3). This is achieved by drawing on techniques used in theatrical teaching and personal development. Most JobAct® training actually takes place on stage. As part of their joint challenge to produce a play, the young adults not only learn practical skills (ranging from stage design to lighting, costume, marketing and PR), they also develop key soft skills. The underlying emphasis, however, is on stimulating participants’ intrinsic creativity, thus empowering them to take control of their lives, their learning and their work. The projects last ten months and also include training on submitting job applications, plus an industrial placement at a potential future employer or a company offering training.
What support is provided by you to franchisees:
The aim of PROJEKTFABRIK is to roll out the scheme JobAct® nationwide and interantional. The clients of PROJEKTFABRIK are primarily local employment consortia and other training centres.
