The main purpose was to gain experience on one’s CV and to obtain more opportunity to find a job.
The objectives were given to the adults: to discover European educational and professional practices, to strengthen their skills in engineering of project of transnational mobility, to maintain and update their knowledge regarding Europe. The main purpose was professionalization and making the bounds between the MFR and the workplace stronger.
102 young people (66 girls and 36 boys) aged from 15 to 20 years old included 63 under age young ones have accomplished a 2 or 3 week work placement in Europe between November 2014 and February 2016.
There were 24 young people from Limoise MFR studying in agricultural or agro equipment field level 3 vocational baccalaureate (in Romany), 16 from the Saint Leopardin MFR studying in level 2 in Aid and Support for Rural Residents vocational Baccalaureate (in Belgium), 22 from Saligny MFR studying cow or horse breeding level 3 vocational Baccalaureate (in the Netherlands), 40 from Sainte Florine MFR who were students in level 2 Services to People vocational A level.

The activities were organized in 3 main steps, upstream (information to the various people, communication, management of the practical and logistic aspects,prospecting for work placements,activities for the “PPLC”and the content agreement), during (work placements,follow their improvement,assessed the participants connected to the required skills),after (various media,listed the acquired skills,used the Europass tools, communicated, valued the mobility actions towards various partners, informed of the results).
A methodology of project management was important to the institutions.
A technical team and a committee were created helped by 1 or 2 assistants in European Mobility in each MFR and at the territorial level to guarantee the quality of the mobilities. The woman in charge was of great help for all the MFR schools all along the project, individually or in groups.
The MFR schools have prospected for the various work placements, negotiated the tasks in the companies, dealt with the pedagogical and logistic aspects, realized a budget, regularly communicated with the families and the hosting companies, went with the young people abroad, paid them visits at the workplace, made the intermediate and final evaluations, assessed them after the mobility, valued the mobility actions towards various partners, informed people of the results.
The hosting companies have named a tutor, identified the tasks on the work placement, were in charge of the monitoring and tutoring all along the training course, the intermediate and final evaluation, of writing and signing the European documents connected to the training course.
After the mobility, the results were communicated thanks to many events (meetings, Europass Mobility celebration) and thanks to press articles (press, internet sites and social networks).
