The BCN Vocational Training Foundation has held the closing event of the first edition of the ALMA project, an initiative promoted by the Foundation, supported by the Public Employment Service of Catalonia (SOC) and financed by the European Social Fund, with the aim of improving the personal and professional opportunities of the participants.
The event was attended by Marta Rodríguez, Executive President of the Board of Trustees of the BCN FP Foundation, and Francesc Castellana, Director of the SOC, who highlighted the relevance of the project and expressed their appreciation for the involvement of all the entities and professionals who made this first edition possible. Both agreed in emphasizing the value of collaborative work in generating initiatives with a real impact on people’s lives.
During the event, the positive impact of the ALMA project was also highlighted in key areas such as personal autonomy, self-esteem, resilience, and the development of social and professional skills among the participants, which are fundamental elements in supporting their socio-labour integration.
The project was made possible thanks to joint work with various entities and institutions, including the Catalan Association for Integration and Human Development, El Llindar, Barcelona Activa, the Xarxa FP, the City Council of Toulouse, the Fondazione Lepido Rocco, among others. This collaboration has made it possible to build a solid project focused on the support and empowerment of young people.
The closing event concluded with recognition of the participants, who received their certificates, and with a very positive assessment of the results achieved. The BCN Vocational Training Foundation reaffirms its commitment to continuing to promote projects such as ALMA, which contribute to generating real and transformative opportunities through training and support.
