Objectives of the project/program: 

D-zručnosti pre zamestnanie is one of the main outcomes of the VOLWEM (Volunteering as Way to Employment) Project.

Description of project/program: 

D-zručnosti pre zamestnanie is an online tool thanks to which volunteers can recognize, name, record, and prove competences they have developed or improved through volunteering. The online tool helps them to support their self-evaluation through pictures, videos, documents or any other results or outcomes of their volunteer activity. The questionnaire is then approved by the volunteer coordinator in the organization the volunteer was volunteering for. Once the coordinator confirms the competencies of the volunteer, they are validated by a special committee at the Matej Bel University in Banska Bystrica. The committee will issue a certificate with the competences listed on it. The volunteers can add the certificate to their CV while applying for a job or list the competences directly in their CVs – among working or volunteering experience. It can help the potential employer to select the suitable candidate for their companies.
