The proposal will support the transnational mobility of 20 learners, undergoing initial vocational education and training, through providing access for students studying relevant vocational courses such as Hospitality, Travel and Tourism, Events Management and Business to an overseas work placement (Traineeship) that will develop skills and competencies appropriate to their chosen vocational area and add value to and complement their existing programme. This will be achieved by Bury College (Sending Organisation) working with Tribeka, based in Malaga, Spain (Host Organisation) to develop and deliver two cohorts of two month international work experience opportunities to learners undertaking relevant vocational courses including Hospitality, Travel and Tourism, Events Management and Business Management with Bury College. The programme will include: Preparatory activities that will fully prepare learners for their overseas placement. For example, experiential learning with those who have experience of working/living abroad, sharing experiences and lessons learned; group learning to develop a feeling of inter-dependence between the cohort / encourage active citizenship; Inter-cultural and Linguistic preparation. Traineeships in hotels across Malaga to help develop vocational skills and competencies, and better understand current working practices. All hotels will be 4-5 star and work will include various departments, e.g. Reception, Administration, Marketing, Management, Entertainment, Events, Housekeeping, Bar, Restaurant or Kitchen.
