Movilidad en Europa: promover el aprendizaje cultural y profesional
Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The project Mobility in Europe: promoting international cultural and professional learning (MEPACPI) – mobility for Vocational students - has the strong support of the School Management team and the approval of the School Board. 12 students of Intermediate Vocational studies will take part in this two-year activity – 9 in France and 3 in Great Britain. In order to carry out the activity, the school counts on the permanent collaboration of the partner schools in France, which provide support as to the management of the project – locating companies if necessary, language or cultural teaching, and students’ direct tutorship. As for the partner companies, they have worked with the IES Universidad de Toledo previously and they are always available. The activity will be carried out through the European Programs Department, consisting of diverse people responsible for the different actions Erasmus +. The tutors of the reference groups of the students involved will provide a favorable report about the students intending to obtain the funds for mobility. The teachers responsible for teaching in workplaces of intermediate or higher level technical training will give their opinion, as they are more aware of the suitability of the posts offered in the host country.There will be a schedule for the Project – initially (information and selection process, and arranging mobilities), during the mobilities (monitoring of the activity), at the end of the activity (final reports, evaluation, dissemination) The activity has been proposed to all the students of intermediate level of technical studies who can take part in the program, and which can be provided with posts at destination offered by the intermediary partner schools. The aim is to fulfill a growing need – to combine training in workplaces, to implement the training acquired at school, to deepen knowledge in languages, and to develop communicative skills in real situations related to their studies and interests. The fact of living in another country for ten weeks will increase their personal autonomy and will enable them to know and appreciate other cultures and ways of life in EU countries, at a personal and professional level. At the same time, they will put into practice the knowledge and skills learned at college. Mobilities will take place between April, May and June 2017 and 2018, as intermediate level technical studies are structured so that the third term is aimed at training at workplaces (FCT). The period of training at workplaces in France will be equivalent to training at workplaces in Spain.The benefits of this activity are clear for each of the participants: improvement of personal, linguistic, professional skills. At school, this activity promotes the contact of technical and language teachers with other schools and colleges and with firms at another country, what leads to an updating of their knowledge, skills and capacities. The mobilities will widen the school scope on a local and regional level. The results of the activity, disseminated by the students who took part, will contribute to the interest of other students in participating in mobility activities. As it is a reciprocal activity, and several schools will be involved, it will also contribute to cooperation between education institutions and companies. On a local basis, mobilities will spread the interest about our city, from several points of view – tourism, culture, business.
