Opening doors to skills, jobs and inclusion
HEIDI helps higher-educated immigrants in Europe put their qualifications to work. Its free portal brings them together with employers and with the counsellors who advise them, in seven countries.
How will you use HEIDI?
Many higher-educated immigrants in Europe work far below their qualifications
Their diplomas are hard to compare, their skills are hard to show, and the rules for regulated professions differ from country to country. HEIDI is an Erasmus+ project of seven partners in seven countries. Together they built free tools and a network of organisations that make this easier.
What the project does
-
Improves how the skills of adult immigrants are identified, screened and mapped against the labour market.
-
Helps adult immigrants develop and show the transversal skills employers ask for.
-
Connects adult education centres, career services, employers, public agencies and immigrant organisations.
-
Works with public institutions to strengthen their support for integration into work.
One portal, three ways in
The HEIDI portal is free and works in seven languages. Job seekers, employers and counsellors each have their own account, and they can write to each other in the portal.
Job seekers
See what your profession needs in the country where you live, get a score for eight transversal skills, build your CV and apply for jobs.
Employers
Post jobs, browse candidates who chose to share their CV and skills results, and receive each application as a conversation.
Counsellors
Follow the job seekers you support, be found by people looking for advice, and talk to employers in the same inbox.
Partnership
HEIDI is an Erasmus+ project run by universities, adult education providers, development agencies and technology companies.
