On October 17th, 2024, the final transnational partner meeting of the Jobs4All project took place in Athens, Greece. During this meeting, the project’s current status was reviewed, and the final tasks were completed. This marks a significant milestone in our journey to improve the skills and competencies of Job Coaches, trainers, and educators who work with young people with disabilities (YPwDs). The project has provided innovative methodologies to enhance training programs for this group.

In addition to the final meeting, the International Multiplier Event for the Jobs4All project was held on October 16th at the Demokritos National Research Centre, where the project's impact and resources were shared with stakeholders and participants from across Europe.
