Priority axis 1: Innovation and knowledge development

Specific objective 1.2: To improve skills and entrepreneurial
competences for advancing economic and social innovation in
central European regions
The project faces the problem of high number of employees aged over 50
who are not qualified with regard to the requirements related to the
development of technology and innovations in the economy.
Ageing society and reduction in the number of employees require new
approach in human resources management. Due to the fact that the
number of young who enter the job market drops, it becomes necessary to
encourage older people to remain in the company even after they reach
the retirement age. There is no reason that their leave was sudden and
definite. For both parties it may prove to be purposeful to maintain
employment e.g. in proportion of working time, or for the time of specific
tasks' implementation.
In order to maintain the current number of people who work in economy it
seems necessary to activate older people, both at working and postworking age. Furthermore, it is important to increase competences of
employees of public institutions and associations, which task is to ensure
support and care over older people.
The main objective of the project is to increase the professional activity
and growth in self-employment and the employment of older people. In
addition, the objective of the project is to raise knowledge and abilities of
employees and entrepreneurs from the SME's sector with regard to
creation of the game-learning applications, simulation games and their
efficient use.
The project plans appropriate activities which are addressed to each of
target groups.
The project covers 4 groups of recipients. In accordance to the stage of
the project it is planned to participate: owners of SMEs enterprises and
staff responsible for human resources management, IT engineers, gamelearning methodologists, staff from local government units from the
Capital City of Warsaw (e.g. social assistance homes, daytime assistance
homes and social welfare centres), non-governmental organizations and
older people.
Main activities:
1. Examination of employees and entrepreneurs knowledge and
abilities as a factor which stimulates economic and social
innovation.
2. Exchange of knowledge and acquisition of information from
Partners on past experience with regard to the use of gamelearning applications.
3. Creation and testing teaching methods with regard to creation of
game-learning application.
4. Simulation games tests – pilotage.
