CONVOLUT follows on from the EU projects CORE, COOCOU, SCOUT, DISCOVER and KISS, which have been successfully implemented to date, with the aim of adapting the ProfilPASS as a competence assessment tool for people at the beginning of retirement. This target group is in transition from employment to retirement, requiring support during this important transition phase. CONVOLUT aims to inspire people at the beginning of retirement to engage in fulfilling and socially relevant volunteer work by giving them impulses and motivating them to self-reflect on their skills and knowledge for volunteer work. The project is coordinated by the DIE and is aimed at counsellors in the participating countries (Germany, Greece, Austria, Sweden, Slovenia, and Spain) who work with the target group and promote their potential for volunteering.
Results and outputs to be developed
The ProfilPASS in Preparation for Retirement is aimed at people who are in transition to retirement. The ProfilPASS offers users the opportunity to create a competence profile by systematically recording and documenting their competences and to recognise their own potential, even if it is still unknown.
The CONVOLUT-Toolkit offers diverse tools and materials from various countries on retirement, aging, and volunteering. It helps people transitioning to retirement reflect on their life journey, prepare for retirement, and plan their future activities, including volunteering.
The Manual for Counsellors is an accompanying document for the CONVOLUT-Toolkit and the ProfilPASS in Preparation for Retirement. It provides background information as well as guidelines and suggestions for counsellors on how the Toolkit and the ProfilPASS in Preparation for Retirement can be applied.
The Curriculum is based on the CONVOLUT-Toolkit and the Manual for Counsellors. It provides guidance and suggestions for the training of counsellors both in terms of training content and methods.
The comprehensive report of Identification of Needs represents a compilation of the partner’s findings and includes good practices as well as useful recommendations for the development of the CONVOLUT toolkit.
