The European migration crisis, which began in 2010, reached a growth peak in 2015. Unfortunately, the relative failure of the socio-professional integration of people from immigrant backgrounds is all too obvious. Unemployment among migrants is often higher than 30%, and those in work carry out tasks which the local population does not wish to do (the '3D' principle: dirty, difficult and dangerous jobs). Local populations, although conscious of the fact there is a labour shortage, are not supportive of the recruitment of migrants by businesses. In addition, some skills, including key skills, which are required for every citizen's development and integration, appear to be lacking among migrant populations, an obvious example being the lack of proficiency in the language of the host country.With a view to the socio-professional integration of migrants, the organisations in charge of migrant integration paths have developed tools which place specific emphasis on this aspect. For example, multi-disciplinary teams tasked with assessing migrants' skills, providing them with adapted action plans, and organising French classes, have been put in place. These initiatives are still at the very early stages, and in general, access to training programmes, as well as access to skills validation and employment, remains extremely difficult. Based on the experience obtained in the field, the main causes of these difficulties can be attributed firstly to the inadequacy of the language courses intended for socio-professional integration, and secondly, the unsuitability of tools for advisors to effectively guide this population group towards employment. Against this backdrop, and based on a confrontation of the respective practices in various European countries, the project has resulted in the co-creation and promotion of a range of solutions: - a methodological guide based on the migrant assessment and training process ;- a testing journal containing the engineering tested within the framework of the project ;- a practical guide of assessment including the principles of evaluation of migrants' transversal skills ;- a referential of 10 transversal skills ;- a flowchart of the possible paths open to migrants depending on their profile, with the aim of optimising their orientation.The results of the MOVE-EU project should enable more effective access to the job market for migrants, which remains one of the main drivers of integration.
