Abstract

In accordance with the document Europe 2020, Europe wants to become smarter, more sustainable and inclusive. It stimulates innovations adapted to the individual learner's, which consequently supports the process of self-employment. Since both Slovenia's and Croatia's unemployment rates are above the EU average, all forms of alternative employment should be promoted, and one of the main outstanding possibilities is represented by a wide spectrum of self-employment possibilities. As the concrete response to the deficiencies identified above, the general aim of the SELPRAF project is to encourage people's interest for entrepreneurship by an innovative SELPRAF Training Programme for the acquisition of the four key competences. Besides, the SELPRAF will promote individual educational pathways beyond VET and improve permeability in the VET.
