A new training Program for 50,000 unemployed and employed is expected in April by DYPA with a training allowance that will reach 1,000 euros depending on the hours of training.

In particular, the 50,000 training positions concern green skills in an effort by the Ministry of Labor and DYPA to connect the needs of the labor market with the skills of employees.

Each beneficiary who completed the program of Continuing Professional training and certification of knowledge and skills, is entitled to receive an educational allowance, which amounts to 5 €/hour of training, not including insurance contributions. Thus, depending on the hours of training, which will range from 50 to 200 hours, the beneficiary will receive up to 1,000 euros.

The implementation of continuing professional training programs is done by applying blended learning methods, i.e. with live and distance modern and asynchronous education.

In the case of distance education, a special digital learning platform is used for distance education, digital educational material, properly adapted to this method and appropriate procedures for evaluating and monitoring the trainees implemented by each K.E.D.I.V.M. AEI or K.D.V.M.

At the same time, live training ensures the immediacy of teaching through the simultaneous presence in the classroom of the teacher and trainees and enhances the learning experience.

Each trainee will attend a theoretical Training program concerning the development of digital and "green" knowledge and skills, with a total duration of 50 to 200 hours. The implementation of the continuing training programs will be carried out with live training in a percentage of at least 35% of the total hours of each program and with the method of distance education (telelearning), which will include at least 35% synchronous distance training and up to 30% asynchronous distance training education.

The daily duration of live education and modern distance education cannot exceed six (6) hours. The end time of live education and modern distance education should not exceed 22:00.

Online education and modern distance education are not allowed on Sundays, as well as public holidays. Each training program, lasting up to 200 hours, must be completed within 3 months at the latest.

The training providers should meet the required specific specifications for the proper implementation of the teletraining programs, as they are described in detail in the invitations that will be issued for the establishment of the two

Registers of Training Providers, in the context of this project.

The language in which the programs are usually implemented is Greek. In addition, the educational material (notes, presentations, etc.) is developed in the Greek language. Educational material in the English language can be made available, where this is deemed possible and necessary. It is possible to implement programs purely in the English language. In any case, in the description of each program, the language of implementation should be mentioned, as well as the necessary qualifications of each prospective trainee.

Training allowance

In particular, the payment of the educational allowance to the beneficiaries is as follows: After the successful completion of the training and the participation of the beneficiary in certification exams (regardless of the result), the beneficiary is entitled to an amount corresponding to 70% of the total entitled amount for all the hours preparation of the program, minus absences.

If he succeeds in the certification exams, he is entitled to 100% of the total entitled amount for all the training hours of the program, minus absences.

The payment is made once, after the completion of the training process and the certification process, after relevant information, from the Training Provider, through the information system and after completion of all the necessary checks that will be carried out by the D.Y.P.A.

The insurance contributions, which correspond to the training allowance of the trainee, are covered by the training check and are borne by the training provider, who is obliged to pay them on time.

Each beneficiary, beneficiary of a training voucher, must, within a predetermined period of time, as defined in the invitation, choose the training provider he wishes in order to receive the services provided by him.
