The B-WISE project<\/a> partners are glad to announce the publication of the \u201cReport understanding user (digital) skill needs in WISEs<\/a>\u201d. The deliverable is the result of the research work conducted during WP. 2 coordinated, on behalf of the B-WISE partnership, by the Consorzio Nazionale Idee<\/a> in Rete<\/u>, one\u00a0 of the\u00a0 Italian\u00a0 partners\u00a0 of the\u00a0 project,\u00a0 under the\u00a0 leadership of\u00a0 Camilla\u00a0 Baldini and Gianfranco\u00a0 Marocchi,\u00a0 responsible\u00a0 for\u00a0 the\u00a0 research\u00a0 work\u00a0 and\u00a0 the\u00a0 content\u00a0 presented. The report aims to make the link between the report from WP.1 \u201cReport on current situation of skills gaps, especially in the digital area, in WISEs sector and anticipating future needs<\/a>\u201d which was published in October and the work foreseen in WP3 to design VET curricula meeting skills gaps which will soon be published.<\/p>\n

European work integration social enterprises (WISEs) are at the core of the B-WISE project, which aims to develop skills strategies to address skills needs in the sector methodological choice, this implied during the research, the direct involvement and the active participation of the entire partnership, which actively contributed to the work presented.<\/p>\n

The research framework started from an assumption that the objective of capacity building cannot be adequately realised unless we are able to understand that European WISEs, although within certain unifying traits, are different from each other in their objectives, operational styles, organisation, size, entrepreneurial orientation, etc; and that the people working in WISEs, disadvantaged workers, supporters and enablers, are diverse in terms of starting skill levels, life histories, investment in learning, etc.<\/p>\n

From this it follows that, in order to be effective, the definition of a capacity building strategy must be designed with reference to the different types of WISEs and the different types of persons working in them. In other words, attention has been paid to the creation of ‘Scenarios’ (the different types of WISEs) and ‘Personas’ (the different types of disadvantaged workers, supporters and enablers), so as to ensure that training and learning respond to the different skills needs.<\/p>\n

The report tries in fact to answers two main questions:<\/p>\n
