Berufliche Orientierung

Another remarkable finding to be emphasised as a last point is that in the light of all personal and professional benefits and future plans of the participants, their hopes of employability increase. Eight out of ten young people who participated in the Youth Exchanges think that their employment chances increased after the project. Focus group meetings and interviews also provide concrete examples regarding employability.

Turkish Social Sciences Association won the bidding process of the National Agency of Turkey in May 2012 and fulfilled the duties of implementation of the quantitative and qualitative research, as the national research partner of the RAY research for the duration of June 2012-June 2014. Turkey became a partner country of the RAY Network in 2012, and in 2012, 2013 and 2014 the Turkish versions of the online questionnaires, prepared by the National Agency of Turkey and its research partner, were sent to all Youth in Action Programme participants as an invitation. Within the context of the RAY research, a number of qualitative research methods were also used in order to support the Special Survey.
