WHAT IS “ON TOP FOR A JOB"?
This training module is aimed at young, under-qualified individuals between the ages of 18 and 25. The concept is simple: it is a programme that combines sports coaching and job coaching.
This training is spread over a period of six weeks, after which young people enter a four-week work placement.
The aim is to energise young people, help them take charge of their lives and integrate into social and professional life.
During the module, participants have the opportunity to discover their professional potential, explore different professions, meet professionals, carry out an observation period, carry out simulated interviews, learn more about the socio-economic environment and carry out a work placement lasting several weeks.

AND WHERE DO SPORTS FIT INTO ALL THIS?
Intensive sports activities allow young people to regain self-confidence, want to surpass themselves and discover their potential. In addition to the physical and physiological changes (weight loss, better physical condition, etc.), sport allows the transmission of useful life values, such as discipline, rigour, respect for rules, perseverance and much more.
The workshops, therefore, aim to enable participants to adopt the educational and social values of sports and transfer them into the field of job searches. Sports are used as a tool for self-reflection to define a realistic professional goal, as well as a structuring element in the job search.
The combination of sports coaching and job coaching makes it possible to transpose these values into everyday life, particularly in young people's job searches. They acquire the necessary tools and techniques to manage stressful situations and calmly face difficulties that may arise, for example, during a job interview.
TESTIMONIALS
Ritchie
The Emergence-XL training course helped me solve my various administrative problems (identity card, Actiris, etc.). I was also able to get help from the CPAS-OCMW because I had no income and no permanent address. I was struggling to find a job because I had a criminal record. Thanks to Emergence XL's coaches and the training, I received an allowance from the CPAS-OCMW, which enabled me to find a flat. This allowed me to concentrate on my job search. And I still have hope, because I am motivated."
Brahim
The training mainly helped me prepare for job interviews because I didn't know the process. I had student jobs before because I knew someone in that company. The “Au Top pour un Job” ("On Top for a Job") course helped me learn how to write a CV and prepare myself for job interviews. I learned that I could also send unsolicited applications. That's how I got my job at Midas. The good thing is that I know I can count on Abdel and Jamel if I need help."

What I liked about the training was first of all the sport, it allowed me to reduce my consumption of hash. With training with Abdel, I suffered a lot at the start, especially in the race. But with the cardio work in the weight room, I made a lot of progress and I managed to improve my running time. I also learned that I was able to do things that I thought I couldn't. I learned with Julien how to prepare for my job interviews and how to present myself better. I also have to listen to feedback and correct myself because I thought I was good at interviews. I learned to question myself. I am happy with this training because I learned to work in sports animation and I really like working with young people. Now I have daily contracts that allow me to pay my bills. I also learned that at the CPAS I could be helped by the debt mediation service which allows me to stress less because I had a letter from the bailiffs and I didn't know how to solve this problem. Thanks to Emergence XL, I learned a lot and found solutions to my problems. »
