The project is a cooperation between three Swedish Upper Secondary Schools, two supporting organisations and companies from five different European countries, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Spain and Malta. The aim is to provide Swedish Secondary School Students in the vocational education of Business and Administration with work-experience from the retail and sales field in different European countries. And to guarantee that the education provided to students in the three schools is up to date and has relevancy on the international level. The objectives are to prevent student drop out by raising the interest and experienced relevance in the education, and to increase employability of students by quality assurance through development of teacher skills, and by knowledge, skills and attitudes gained in students from the experience of working outside of Sweden in the field relevant to the education. 26 students from Business and Administration will have work-placement for five to seven weeks in retail stores and service centres in these countries, and 12 teachers will be given the opportunity to study the work in the partner companies and organisations. The project coordinator is Hvitfeldtska gymnasiet in Gothenburg, where one staff member will act as coordinator and supervise the project. There will be teachers responsible for each country hosting students, providing preparation for students in terms of language skills and cultural and historical awareness. Previous to the mobility the students will have work-practice in Sweden in the same field of work as they will be expected to do in the European work-placement. The participants from the project are expected to achieve openness towards working in another European country, and to influence others in the same direction both inside and outside of Sweden. The aim is to provide them with the necessary competencies and attitudes to be attractive to employers all over the world in the field of service and retail. High competence in the work-force is the key to future success for the individual as well as for the nation and for Europe.
