In the region of Western Lithuania, the extensively experienced in the field of vocational training Klaipeda Vocational Training and Rehabilitation Centre offers to obtain qualifications that are in demand. We are providing Continuous vocational training for adults and initial vocational training services for the disabled. We achieved two goals in this project: We sent 9 students who are studying a massage therapist training program abroad to gain practical skills in enterprises in EU countries. Students did their practical work in real work placement in such countries us Malta, Greece and Italy for 3 weeks. We hope that exchange of experience, good practices and discussions, encouraged our students to deepen their knowledge and motivation to learn and grow throughout all their life. Familiar with new teaching methods, practices and technologies we increased students' employment opportunities. When students come back, their shared the experience that their gained in EU counties, with Klaipeda Vocational Training and Rehabilitation Centre community. We wanted to promote students' curiosity, the desire to excel in taking over other countries best practices in a massage therapist work. The second aim of the project was to acquire and expand Klaipeda Vocational Training and Rehabilitation Centre workers knowledge of healthy lifestyle, enhance and learn new skills which would help to develop new modular of healthy lifestyle. Klaipeda Vocational Training and Rehabilitation Centre workers have discovered that more and more students became interested in health promotion and conservation issues. The students lack knowledge about stress management, balanced nutrition, physical activity and other similar issues. Our workers were not able to provide professional answers to student’s questions, because they also lack the knowledge about healthy lifestyle and how to develop new training programs of healthy lifestyle. In order to solve these problems, the 13 workers of Klaipeda Vocational Training and Rehabilitation Centre visited different European countries such as Estonia, Sweden, Germany, Malta and Greece. During 5 working days each worker had to watch and do some practical works. During the visits their learned what are other countries concept of healthy living, what kind of a modular training program of healthy lifestyle their have, how such training programs are developed and implemented. Their acquired theoretical and practical knowledge of a healthy lifestyle. Their learned how to make an individual programs of healthy lifestyle for person, for group or for community. Their will acquire theoretical and practical knowledge of a healthy lifestyle. Their will learn how to make an individual programs of healthy life, of physical activity, of healthy lifestyle, and of behaviour modification for person, for group or for community.
