Estudiar y trabajar en el extranjero: una nueva dimensión a la movilidad en Europa
Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Pare Vitoria School requests mobility for learning in school education and Short cycle higher education in this call. With this project we want our VET students to acquire language skills and additional training, experience in European companies; we want them to meet new cultures and ways of working, suitable for their incorporation into the labour market. We consider a priority the need to analyze the learning outcomes of the studies taught in our centre with those obtained in European countries and to develop educational materials in common. The need for recognition of professional qualifications and labour mobility in Europe are a requirement to establish a credit system of training recognized and accepted by all countries Project partners countries have similar studies with level 3 and 4 of the EQF (European Qualifications Framework). With this mobility project for learning we want to strengthen the links between education and business field and improve the quality of the training content. We will make this project with 3 partners from vocational training centres in the Netherlands, Greece and Italy. In order to carry out the project students from the intermediate VET laboratory course will be selected to complete six mobilities. These students will undertake a period of training in the host member centre combined with an internship in companies in the sector in the selected country. The selected students will be final year students and recent graduated students. The teachers participating in the project will be selected from those who teach in the VET cycles. The process of selection of candidates will be carried in a transparent and clear way, giving all teachers and students the opportunity for mobility. Erasmus Coordination Team, composed of the Director, the Erasmus coordinator, the VET coordinator, the counsellor and three teachers selected, will be responsible to inform and make the selection of the participants. Participation in this project will bring an improvement in our institution because it favours social cohesion through these projects that enhance learning opportunities for students and teachers and bring the field of education / training to the workplace together, the main objective of VET. Each partner will design the activities to undertake in the host school and the selected companies. Job shadowings and meetings will take place to establish the training agreement and learning programs, establishing a framework regarding learning outcomes in studies of each country to establish ECVET credit validation. Teaching materials regarding professional qualifications and basic competencies acquired by students will be developed. The activities to be developed in the project will consist of students’ mobilities at the host school, where activities with other students will be done according to a plan set by the project partners. Previous agreements between the institutions will be necessary to establish cooperation. These agreements will set out the roles and responsibilities of the different parties and their commitment to the common quality criteria in the selection, preparation, reception and integration of participants in mobility. The student, from the beginning of the project, will be assigned two tutors, one from origin centre and the other from the host school, who will be in continuous contact before, during and after the mobility to analyze, apply and disseminate the results. The tutor of the host school will support and guide students throughout the mobility. The tutor from the origin school will monitor the students’ progress via email, telephone and using the moodle platform. The mobilities that will be carried out in this project, both for students and faculty are vital in VET education in order to prepare them for today's society and to ensure their future competitiveness and innovation in Europe. The impact we want to achieve with this project is to introduce the centre in the learning mobilities for intermediate VET in laboratory and to improve the teaching skills to be applied in the class by the faculty, as well as to establish ECVET validations. Increase the prestige of intermediate VET courses in our environment and in the Public Education System in the European Union and to raise awareness among students of the importance of lifelong learning in the European Union
