IQ Good Practice
Innovative, sustainable and transferable approaches from IQ projects and their successful implementations are recognized as IQ good practice examples in the IQ funding program. A total of 62 information sheets of IQ good practice examples are currently available, of which 24 are good practices from the current funding round - 2019 to 2022 - and 38 from the previous funding round - 2015 to 2018 - of the program. The IQ good practice examples are aimed at employment services, advice centers, educational service providers and companies and promote systematic transfer. The IQ Good Practice approach is particularly about ensuring that tried-and-tested instruments, concepts, measures and formats are used, disseminated and sustainably anchored within and outside the funding program.
