Aim of the project

A more definite accompaniment in the company should allow trainees to optimise their practical training or trial period in order to improve their chances to be integrated in a permanent way.
We will carry out an experiment together with Inter-Cosmetiques, that is a private company and a member of the Development Partnership.

Objectives

To make trainees and employees involved in order to facilitate their appropriation of the project
To allow better coordination between partners
To facilitate the accompaniment on demand after the end of integration period in order to reduce the risk of failure when people return to work
To allow better understanding of the integration by companies and so their adherence.
To continue the work on identification of people’s behaviour at work
