Prior Learning Recognition is a complementing part of the activities that Albcontact is offering recently as part of diversified portfolio in the Bakery& Patisserie profession. Returned emigrants, who learned a profession working abroad, have a big need to certify their skills and knowledge in order to be licensed and open their own business.

IMPACT

15 PLR test for certification have been organized for 2019 -2020. We have approached the community of bakeries and restaurants in Albania doing this. 70 business men and women in bakery are evaluated by the bakery commission and in the end certified as professional baker and helpers.

Albcontact is further developing the mediation for employment project in the area of Tirana & Durres. In this aspect we have developed and consolidated a coaching system and methodology inside the organization. The pandemic and earthquake situation have created a gap in the normal running of the mediation for employment activity due to the difficulties of the business to be developed.

The website is an interactive platform directly in the service for both job seekers and businesses. We already have a database with vacancies and potential job positions in various sectors. Albcontact is present on social media through the “Kerkoj Pune” Facebook page dedicated uniquely to employment.

There are other projects ongoing from our organization.
