Erasmus+ Career Path project
Guidance
The (Erasmus +) Career Path project examines the employment conditions and career opportunities of foreigners from third
countries living in Hungary, Croatia, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The aim is to prepare policy recommendations and a set
of tools for key actors that will improve access to further career development opportunities for foreigners from third
countries.
Reasons why the project / program is considered a “good practice”
The project included an analysis of the situation in the countries concerned – identification of problems in the recognition of
qualifications obtained in a third country, and examples of good practice presented. The project activities were aimed at
developing recommendations in the field of integration of foreigners into the labour market and their professional
development.
The project formulated practical instructions for improving the access of foreigners to the labour market in Croatia, the Czech
Republic, Hungary and Slovakia. A series of four leaflets with practical instructions on how to improve third-country nationals’
access to the labour market, more effectively fulfil their career goals and participate in socio-cultural participation. Each leaflet
is addressed to a different target group – foreigners, employers and non-governmental and educational institutions. A brief
guide has also been created for the leaflets, which is used to use them as efficiently as possible.
