In a united Europe aspects such as experiences across the continent and the knowledge of foreign languages becomes more and more important and evident. The Louis-Baare-Berufskolleg is a vocational school/college where pupils complete their apprentice-ships or obtain other educational qualifications. As a so-called "Europaschule" we account for this development. While doing their work placements as part of the project the selected students gain the above mentioned competences. These competences cover the needs of the German economy on a global market.The selected participants provide their linguistic and technical skills to the internship company. The successful achievment of everyday work in a company abroad strenghtens their self confidence. Moreover they learn more about different working methods and mentalities. Through this the students enhance their career prospects within the European Union. Furthermore making positive experiences beyond national borders and also making new friends in other countries reduces prejudices, stereotypes and fears. Overall 17 students will participate. Before their stays abroard all students will be prepared for their placements. This includes practical support concerning the organization locally (booking of flights, accomodation etc.). 9 students will go to Turkey. Due to the language barrier there will be a teacher from our school on the spot (Izmir) who gives assistance. The other students will be supported via mail or telephone. Besides it is planned to visit them as far as possible with the priority of Derry as there will be 3 students in Northern Ireland. Subsequent to the placement/project there will be an internal school session where the students pass on their experiences to potential candidates in the following year. Further to this experience reports will be published both on our homepage and in the local newspaper.
