The purpose of the program is to activate and help young people gain new skills. Nowadays, young people have minimum skills and qualifications after graduating and that’s is way they are often unemployed. As vocational school graduates are out of work mainly due to lack of appropriate practical skills for their trained professions, the experience and practical knowledge gained during traineeship increased the professional qualifications of participants, which in turn raised their attractiveness in the labor market. The purpose of the project ”Mobility as a way to success” was to gain new skills and job experience. The project had 39 participants – students and graduates from vocational and technical schools from zachodniopomorskie voivodeship which were learning in the field of tourism, catering and hospitality through training in Spanish and Italian work places.
