Are you a guidance practitioner?
[IS] Nú á tímum þurfa náms- og starfsráðgjafar að nota margs konar tölvu- og upplýsingatækni til þess að halda utan um upplýsingar og að þjóða ráðþegum. Sífellt fleiri þeirra líta á hina nýju tækni sem handhægt verkfæri í sínu daglega starfi. Ný tegund við að veita náms- og starfsráðgjöf verður búin til og mun hún þjóða bæði þeim sem standa höllum fæti vegna landfræðilegra eða líkamlegra aðstæðna og þeim eiga í erfileikum í einkalífinu eða við vinnu sína. Við þurfum að nota hefðbundnar aðferðir með nýjustu tækni og bjóða þannig mjög breiða þjónustu.
When delivering guidance, practitioners are used to interact face to face: but how about remote-carried activities, such as videoconference sessions? How does this new approach affect the relationship with final users? Which new or different actions can be spinned through ICT-based tools?Along with final users’ employability, capacity building of guidance practitioners is the aim of eGos project. They will be trained to the use of ICT-based tools for e-guidance delivery, using the eGOS prototype during the pilots and after the project ends.
The project envisages the interaction of pilots, trainer, tester and evaluator partners from five countries, in order to get a reliable test of its functionality. The validation will be acquired after a two-year test, through a step-by-step monitoring of the activities.
That's why also practitioners, not directly involved, should monitor the development of the project, subscribing to the (absolutely free) eGos newsletter. They are going to receive periodical information about works in progress, and useful professional tools (see, for example, the document D 3.1 - Ethical guidelines for e-guidance delivery and usage by Raimo Vuorinen, Institute for Educational Research, University of Jyväskylä, and James P. Sampson, Jr., Institute for Educational Research, University of Jyväskylä, at http://www.egos-cip.eu/node/139).

Are you a private/public body?
[IS] By monitoring the development of the eGos project, private and public bodies will observe, from a close point of view, the evolution of guidance practices. Subscribing the eGos newsletter, they are going to receive periodically information about works in progress and useful documentation (see for example the "Ethical guidelines for e-guidance delivery and usage" by Mr. Raimo Vuorinen, Institute for Educational Researc, University of Jyväskylä, and Mr. James P.
Welcome to the eGOS
[ICELAND]The project will aim at improving employability and guidance practitioners’ capacity building through the activities of a prototype service that will enable the delivery of educational and vocational e-guidance services, also to cross-border mobility. This eGOS system will enable decision makers in charge with educational, training and employment policies to reach also those citizens that, for different reasons, wouldn’t be able to take benefit from traditional guidance services.
