End date: Sep 30, 2015
PROJECT
FINISHED
CONTEXT AND ANTECEDENTS OF THE PROJECT
The IES La Zafra got the ECHE (Erasmus Charter for Higher Education) for 2009-2013 and carried out then some mobility for students’ practices in that period, in the form of consortium. That experience has been useful so that, after the renovation of the ECHE for the period 2014-2020, the structure and management of these mobilities can be better and more agile, being the participation in the mobility programme for higher education students in the course 2014-2015 a starting point, based on the project here described, as individual institution. Within the framework of the educational offer on this higher level, which includes in our School upper grade training cycles (CFGS) from Administration, Health and Prevention of Occupational Risks, we have always paid a special attention to job prospects and so it was particularly essential for us to take advantage of what the Erasmus Programme proposes.
We must add that the scholar education has been involved in the internationalization of academic life, by developing some projects and in addition we aim to involve Intermediate Vocational Training Education in the Erasmus + program, providing our institution with an important European dimension.
OBJECTIVES
Although the antecedents of our school participation in these kind of programmes has been the described above, we consider this as a start project, which has as main objectives the progressive improvement of the quality of the members, both the firms receiving our students and the schools welcoming teachers, as well as the diffusion of the possibilities of the programme among the educational community of the schools, trying so to gather wills for an international opening of our schools and to be able to offer our students the benefits of this great personal and professional experience.
