At the Anne-Frank-Berufskolleg Schule der Sekundarstufe II der Stadt Münster exchange of apprentices and students is a structural and encouraged part of its mission statement. During this project ECVET systematics will be integrated by using learning achievement units.
• National needs:
o the achievement of higher levels of employability and flexibility to learn skills in authentic environments are priorities of this project
o experiencing new customs and using foreign languages stimulates to become more open to other ways of living/using flowers, other cultures, and to other points of view

• European needs:
o enhancement of the quality of education in floristry, of professional level and social status in floristry
