Higher education student and staff mobility project
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Oct 30, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

In the current framework of education internationalisation and professional activities, as well as the required strong binding to the labour market, it is a central goal for the Polytechnic Institute of Castelo Branco (IPCB) to promote the internationalisation of students and lecturers. The purpose is to contribute to improve student language skills and techniques, as well as facilitate their employability in the labour market, which is increasingly not only a national resolution but also European. It is also with the prospect of the always-desirable education quality and the constant updating of teacher training, who leads the IPCB to invest in the teacher mobility with European institutions. This policy of teacher mobility and exchange is also essential to facilitate and promote student mobility. The focus on internationalisation is evident in IPCB´s development strategy, expressed in the IPCB’s Evaluation and Responsibility Framework (QUAR) that elucidates the perspective of teaching internationalisation. This Erasmus+ project is therefore a response to this IPCB’s goal. The mobility results were remarkably positive, in some cases even superseding the original objectives. All the mobilities allowed establishing or strengthening the partnership and cooperation not only for the direct participants (students and lecturers) but also for the IPCB as general. All student mobilities were fully recognised by the IPCB through the recognition in the student’s study plans and in the Europass Mobility, which allows showing the skills and qualifications in a clear and easily recognisable form. Lecturers also saw their mobility reflected in the internal evaluation of their annual performance.
