Exciting News from the GeGS Project!

We are thrilled to announce the release of a new article detailing the remarkable achievements of the GeGS project!

The GeGS project aimed to revolutionize Information, Advice, and Guidance (IAG) service provision by accelerating the digital shift within organizations and implementing cutting-edge e-services in IAG counseling.

Key highlights from the article include:

  •  Testing of an AI-driven online career counseling tool called Jobiri, developed by an Italian company, which offers comprehensive support for job seekers including CV and cover letter assistance, as well as employability skills training.
  • Adaptation and redevelopment of Jobiri to suit the specific needs and circumstances of the Thessaly, Sardinia, and Berlin regions.
  • Collaboration with public authorities and professionals in the field trial regions to validate the adaptation process.
  • Involvement of 35 IAG practitioners who used the tool to assist over 350 clients during the project period.

The field trials spanned almost 18 months from November 2022 to March 2024.

It’s worth noting the diverse range of clients served, including young adults entering the job market, individuals over 30 years old, and even employed individuals seeking career planning guidance.

This article showcases not only the success of the GeGS project but also the potential for personalized guidance services to make a meaningful impact on individual clients’ lives.
