An opportunity to start again
You do not have to
take the next step
alone.
Not every journey is a straight line. NEETWork Dão-Lafões helps you discover your interests, develop skills and find your place in education, training or work.
Led by Adamastor in a consortium with IEFP and UPV, the Polytechnic University of Viseu, the project connects personal support, practical experiences and opportunities in the region.
You are the starting point: your interests, your questions and the goals you want to work towards.
