Uraohjain+ project
Uraohjain+ builds a new model for sustainable employment
The Uraohjain+ development project has developed a new operating model to promote employment and is seeking businesses to cooperate with. The partners we seek are ready to contribute to the development of labour available to make it best suit their own needs.
The Uraohjain service involves using businesses’ labour needs as the basis for developing job seekers’ know-how and other competences, both at the general level and business-specifically. The business’s cooperation with the service will consist of meetings and presentation events to chart know-how and labour needs, and taking job seekers participating in the service into account in recruitment.
In the Uraohjain service, job seekers will develop their know-how in the field of ICT / software development / media and their career management skills and strengthen their operational capabilities. The basics of the operating model were established in previous projects that achieved good results. The service is intended for unemployed job seekers who have an upper secondary or higher education degree and are looking for employment in the fields of ICT, software development or media.
The Uraohjainr+ project is carried out by the City of Helsinki (Helsinki Vocational College and Adult Institute), Laurea University of Applied Sciences and Metropolia University of Applied Sciences. The project is partially funded by the EU.
The results and outputs of the CareerDriver+ project can be found in full from Innokylä (in Finnish): https://innokyla.fi/fi/kokonaisuus/uraohjain

The Uraohjain+ project focuses on four points of emphasis

Uraohjain+ launched on 1 March 2023 and will continue until 28 February 2025. The service will be developed throughout the entire project, and a model of the service developed and its effectiveness will be published at the end of the project period.
