"Job Action Project"

At the end of February, the number of participants in the project was 14 young people, so one place is still vacant. Three participants have left the project this month. One participant left due to starting an integration language course, one participant left for health reasons and one participant had to end the programme due to a prison sentence. 
The team welcomed five new young people in February.

The new participants first received safety instructions and then began to familiarise themselves with the various materials and tools in the wood workshop. The remaining participants continued to work diligently on the project. 
The construction of benches for the Celtic village was one of the first tasks. For this, the wood had to be peeled, sanded and filed. The seats were then joined to the stamps and the backrest. The dilapidated bridge and wooden fence in the Celtic village have been demolished. Both will be rebuilt in the next stage of work.

As part of the socio-pedagogical support, the first crisis discussions took place in the area of everyday life and social skills, and goals were formulated in the help plan processes. The participants received support with application processes and job acquisition, including the joint preparation and sending of applications. Two participants have already been successfully placed in an internship. Two further participants have successfully passed their job interview and will start their internship in March.

An additional German course was started on our premises with the non-German-speaking participants in order to reduce language deficits and increase integration and placement opportunities. The young people are interested and actively participate in the theoretical and practical sessions.

All participants in the project took part in a joint trip to the Kaiserslautern Master Craftsman School for the "Training Day". During this event, the young people were able to find out about various training occupations and areas of work, including carpentry, painting, blacksmithing, electrical work and C&C machine production, and try out some of the activities.

"Job Action Project"

The project started successfully on 1 January 2024 with eight participants, with two more participants joining in the course of the month, meaning that there are currently 10 participants working on the project.

We started the first week with personal meetings and group discussions to get to know each other and consolidate the team structure.

A career interest test was carried out with the participants as part of the induction week. This showed the young people which professions might suit their personal interests and strengths. It was also possible to crystallise professions that the participants had not previously considered. Another module was an introductory test in the subject areas of German, maths and social studies. This tested basic arithmetic, spelling and grammar as well as general knowledge. The analyses of both tests were discussed in detail with the participants and the results were incorporated into the support planning. The workshops initially focussed on teaching safety regulations, the proper use of tools and machines and the correct handling of different materials.

Here, the different types of wood processing were taught and practically tested in practice sessions. 
The participants then made the first stools for the Celtic village.

Based on the "Celtic Village on the Donnersberg" project, the first training session was on the topic of "Celtic life in Germany and on the Donnersberg" and included a tour of the Celtic village. This gave the participants a comprehensive insight into the future project work.
