Project coordinator – Projet soutien Liban – Boot camps

Beyrouth, Liban

CONTEXTE

IECD (Institut Européen de Coopération et de Développement) is a French non-governmental organization founded in 1988 and operating in the field of social and economic development in partnership with local institutions. The main areas of activity of the IECD are training and professional integration, assistance to micro and small businesses and access to education and health for the most vulnerable.

In Lebanon, ECD has been operating in the country since 1989 (www.iecd.org). Semeurs d'Avenir is a Lebanese association, created in 2010. It is the operational partner of the IECD in vocational and professional training. (www.sda-lb.org). IECD and Semeurs d'Avenir are jointly developing qualifying training courses in sectors with high employment potential and supporting their partners to improve their educational offer and strengthen themselves institutionally.

The practical work has been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and the online teaching. In addition, the students were unable to attend internships in companies. The graduate students did not reach the required competencies level. To give them a better chance of finding a job, Semeurs d'Avenir wants to set up training courses for students and recent graduates to recover missing skills and create new profiles to meet the needs of the labor market.

Semeurs d'Avenir is therefore seeking to strengthen its project team by recruiting a project coordinator to help create and implement these boot camps
