Introduction

The “Torno Subito” Programme is part of the ESF 2014-2020, the ROP Lazio ESF Axis III - Education and Training programming with “Investment Priority, 10.ii” Improvement in the quality and efficiency of higher education or equivalent level, and access to the same, in order to increase participation and the success rate, particularly for disadvantaged groups , “Specific Objective, 10.5” Raising levels of competence, participation and training success in university and/or equivalent education. The key action for the joint programming of the Regione Lazio is action 23. “Torno Subito: job placement of young people through training/work in Italy and abroad".

Starting in 2016, the “Torno Subito” Programme is part of the Generazioni (Generations) Plan, a tool that the Regional Executive Committee for the Lazio Region has implemented as a tangible, operative signal to the crisis situation and employment and general social problems which affect a large part of the population like the one consisting of young people. These are projects that take advantage of the European Social Fund (ESF) available for 2014-2020 programming to build a variety of opportunities, complementary to and in synergy with one another in order to support and strengthen the path of young people towards inclusion and affirmation, not just in the field of employment, but also in a social and personal context as well.

With the “Torno Subito” programme, the Regione Lazio intends to participate in achieving the objectives that the new Europe 2020 Strategy has identified to exit the crisis through a process of growth that must be:

smart: developing an economy based on knowledge and innovation; sustainable: promoting a more resource-efficient, greener and competitive

economy; Inclusive: fostering an economy with a higher level of employment which

promotes social and territorial cohesion.

“Torno Subito” 2016 fits into the “Porta Futuro Rete Università” project by making a significant contribution to the enhancement of human capital as a strategic growth factor and by financing projects for learning, training and work experience. These are aimed at improving the opportunities for integration in the job market, with the direct involvement of public and private organisations.

3




The principles and aims of the programme of actions are to:• sustain the improvement and strengthening of the human capital of young people by

encouraging: mobility nationally, in Europe and internationally; the comparison with relevant experiences in their field of interest; the increase in formal and informal skills through a learning by doing approach;

• encourage the acquisition of excellent skills by sustaining higher education through study and work experience pathways and, at the same time, creating opportunities for the development of important relations, both in Italy and abroad;

• promote the use of skills and experience in the region by increasing the opportunities for qualified employment in response to the requirements of the region’s economy for a smart, sustainable and inclusive growth;

• contribute to reducing the gap between demand and supply of work by allowing young people to build career paths suited to their growth and specialisation requirements in specific professional areas;

• sustain opportunities for individual growth of young people through knowledgeable choices about their future which help to open up pathways to independence and participation;

• allow firms and third sector and research organisations to internalise excellent skills based on shared experiences of training and work as well.

The programme pursues the principles of equal opportunity and accessibility for everyone and in particular, includes specific support measures to encourage the participation of people with disabilities.

The proposer may submit projects divided into two main phases:A) phase 1: aimed at a study pathway or work experience outside the Lazio region

which must involve one host-partner, where a training or work experience activity is carried out, depending on the chosen project line;

B) phase 2: aimed at redeploying the skills acquired in Phase 1 within the Lazio region by carrying out internships at one host-partner or alternatively, through guided pathways to self-employment at a coworking site.

Each project must refer to one of the three project lines indicated below and outlined in detail in article 4 of this call for proposals:

Project Line 1 - “Torno Subito Training”; Project Line 1 - “Torno Subito Work Experience”; Project Line 3 - “Torno Subito Cinema”;

2. a guided pathway to self-employment for a period of three to six months, to be carried out at a coworking site, aimed at redeploying the skills acquired in Phase 1 and building/experimenting an idea for a start-up business in the cinematographic industry.The work experience in the coworking site will be governed by signing a three-way agreement between the recipient, Laziodisu and the host coworking site (Annex 6b).

For each month, the activity indicated in the project and agreed with the host-partner must be guaranteed for a minimum duration of fifteen days and at least eighty hours and each day may not be less than 4 hours. The activity carried out must be certified by a register of monthly attendance (Annex 7), signed daily by the recipient and countersigned by the tutor identified by the host. Upon termination of the activity, a final certification of the pathway must be produced, signed by a tutor identified by the host, which clearly states attendance of the activities and the type of activities performed.

In order to receive the entire amount of the monthly remuneration, the recipient must guarantee attendance for at least 80% of the planned hours. Below that level, for an attendance between 80% and 60% of the planned hours, a cost calculated as a

18




percentage of the hours actually attended and those initially planned will be acknowledged. Below the level of 60% of hours of planned attendance, the amount acknowledged will be zero. The work experience activities should always begin between the first and the fifth day of the month

Upon penalty of exclusion, the participants may only submit one proposal chosen from one of the three Project Lines described above.

Article 5 - The role of the host-partnersIn order to be able to submit a project, the proposer must identify two host-partners: the first for Phase 1 to be carried out outside Lazio and the second for Phase 2 to be carried out in Lazio.

19




In both Phases of the project, the role of the partner is to allow a true sharing of the skills improvement path and their redeployment with the aim of maximising the positive effects of the project. The collaboration between the proposer and the partners must be certified by signing a letter of intent (Annex 1 for Phase 1 of the Work Experience Project Line and Annex 2 for Phase 2 of all three Project Lines). The letter of intent must be signed by the legal representative or his substitute. In the case of training activities, the training and cinema project lines, it is sufficient to submit the training programme and the relevant estimate to be attached by the proposer when completing the on-line form.The “letter of intent” (Annex 1 and 2) is intended to demonstrate the willingness to host the proposer if the project idea submitted by the latter is awarded funding, and upon completion of the activities covered by the project does not imply any further obligations.The host-partners must be identified by the proposer completely independently based on the goals that the latter aims to achieve through the project. There are no limitations for the choice of host-partners which can be chosen among universities, research centres, public institutes, private companies, profit and non-profit associations, cooperatives, professional studios etc., provided they respect the project idea and the project objectives.To help identify partners, a short-list of institutes available to participate in the “Torno Subito” programme can be consulted under the heading “Institutes/Companies” on the web site www.tornosubito.laziodisu.it This list is provided solely for the purpose of making it easier to find partners and is neither exhaustive nor binding since the proposer may also identify his/her own partners outside this list completely independently and without any restriction or preference.The list is open and is therefore liable to be updated.

Annex 8 - Standard Scales of Unit Costs (for subsistence and travel expenses)

Implementation of ROP - Operational Programme of the European Social Fund 2014-2020 - Axis III Education and Training – Investment Priority 10.ii, Specific

Objective 10.5

Adoption of Standard Scales of Unit Costs as part of thesimplified cost options for reporting of costs to the European Social Fund in

accordance with art.11.3 (b) (i) (ii) Regulation EC 1081/2006 modified by Regulation (EC) 396/2009 to be applied to the Call for Proposals “Torno Subito” Programme of

actions for university students or graduates

Approved with Executive Decision No G05204 of 17/12/2013

1. KEY ELEMENTS OF PRELIMINARY FACT-FINDING ENQUIRY FOR THE DEFINITIONS OF THE SCALES OF STANDARD COSTS

The key elements of the preliminary fact-finding enquiry for the definition of the scales of standard costs can be summed up in the following categories: travel, meals and accommodation (hereinafter “ancillary expenses”) in order to reduce the burden associated with demonstrating and checking these elements and at the same time, to ensure an efficient and timely implementation of the operation.

This document takes, as its basis and as a whole, the result of the study carried out to identify the parameters to use for the recognition of mobility costs as part of actions to promote pathways for vocational transnational and interregional mobility aimed at acquiring and improving the skills of people who have never worked, the unemployed and the employed. Specifically, in order to fully meet allocation requirements, a fact-finding survey was conducted on both a regional/national and EC level on Programmes/Call for Tenders which fund mobility actions.

For interregional programmes, the survey identified the “Catalogo Interregionale Alta Formazione 2013” (Interregional Catalogue for Higher Education) as a key element, adopted by the Regione Lazio with Executive Decision No B01887 of 20/05/2013 which identifies, on the basis of a national survey, lump sums for mobility costs when attending training courses.

For international mobility programmes, EU guidelines were mainly taken into account which regulate and identify costs for mobility within the Lifelong Learning Programme – LLP. Specifically, the Programme funded by DG Education and Culture identified the scales of costs in the Guide for Applicants 2013 – general provisions to be used for mobility schemes. A second EU programme referred to for identifying standard costs in international mobility schemes is the Jean Monnet programme (promoting teaching and research) for periods of

47




time spent abroad in a non-European country and in other European countries not included in the LLP.

2. LUMP SUMS RECOGNISED FOR STANDARD COST COMPONENTS2.1 Explanation of the application of standard costs

The Standard Scales of Unit Costs, defined by this document for technical guidance, will be used in the implementation of the activities included in the first phase of the Call for Proposals, limited to the ancillary expenses incurred for the cost of meals, accommodation and travel.

A reference framework for expenses is given below for the definition of the Standard Scales of Unit Costs for ancillary expenses, depending on where the activity mainly takes place for which the costs are incurred: - remuneration for national mobility, outside the Lazio region;- remuneration for international mobility, in European countries;- remuneration for international mobility, in other European and foreign countries.

2.2 Technical and methodological aspects for calculating the standard costs components

For the reimbursement of expenses incurred in the first phase – learning outside the Lazio region, the cost parameters from the analysis which was carried out will be used, as outlined below.

A) Remuneration for national mobility, outside the Lazio region;A.1) Cost of meals A monthly remuneration of €222 was considered reasonable to cover the cost of meals in the first phase of learning when taking place in Italy. This parameter is calculated on the basis of two meals per day in the university canteen (at a cost of €11) for the number of days attending the course (twenty days per month). The cost of a single meal in the canteen is €5.50, taken from the average cost of a meal in university canteens outlined in the table (Table no. 1) of the Catalogo Interregionale Alta Formazione (CIAF).

4. METHOD OF CALCULATING PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION Once the value of the single standard components for phase 1 has been defined, the definition of the standard cost will be calculated as follows:

- the product of the identified cost parameters and the number of months included in the training phase of the individual plan with completion of the training objective by the participant;

- the sum of the amount obtained plus the eventual standard cost of travel.

The result of the above-mentioned calculations determines the amount of funds to be paid, net of any expenses to be reported as real costs.The operations must be carried out in full accordance with the provisions of the Call for Proposals “Torno Subito” and must guarantee the minimum levels of attendance as indicated in the same.Therefore, except for the specific provisions included in the Call of Proposals in question, the parameters for Standard Cost, indicated in the attached tables, will be applied in full if: a) the entire pathway for the training scheme is actually completed by the participant, in

Italy or abroad; b) the participant actually attends at least 80% of the overall time required by the pathway

for the training scheme, in Italy or abroad. All the above-mentioned factors and elements are subject to systematic checks and controls by the Management Authority and the other authorities appointed to carry out audits in accordance with regional, national and EC regulations.

5. VERIFICATION ELEMENTSThe grant for the recipients’ subsistence and travel costs is determined on the basis of pre-determined standard costs and depends on the activity being effectively completed. Therefore, in order to demonstrate that the activity in question has taken place, the participant must submit a declaration on the specific form provided with the following attachments:

- a certificate of attendance of the training scheme issued by the Italian or foreign partner showing that the participant attended at least 80% of the hours required by

56




the training scheme outside the region;- a final report on the activities performed, the training objectives achieved and the

period of stay, submitted by the participant.

Failure to complete the operation, in accordance with the provision of the Call for Proposals, will result in immediate disqualification of the operation and withdrawal of the grant.

Given that payments will be made only if the training scheme is actually completed, all participants will be required to keep and give access to the documentation required by the implementation arrangements (Regional notice) to the regional authorities concerned, for inspections and audits to be implemented systematically in itinere and ex post phases.

Specifically, the checks under Regulation (EC) No 1303/2013, from being predominantly financial checks (justification of real costs), will be redirected towards the technical and physical aspects of the operations, so that the on-the-spot checks and in itinere (so-called “surprise” checks) take precedence and become more frequent, thus a guaranteed percentage of checks will be established for the total number of funded operations, using the simplification option.
