RWB goes Europe 2016-2018
Start date: Jun 1, 2016, End date: May 31, 2018 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The project "RWBK goes Europe" is the second cross-departmental project for the different EU activities of our vocational school. Future educators, nursery nurses, apprentices in the hotel and hospitality trade will travel abroad to improve their intercultural, vocational and language skills. Project aims: The aim is to increase the European mobility of future employees. Things that we have in common and things that are different in the respective countries are the topic of ensuing discussions. Automatically, the foreign language skills, the social competences as well as the personal and vocational skills will improve. Many former participants said that they realized that also their professional skills are international. There has been a lively exchange of methods and ideas with regard to activities with children in the nursery school which increased the self-confidence of participants as an equal partner for the British colleagues. Number and profile of participants: 80 participants. Of those 22 future educators, 24 nursery nurses, 20 apprentices from the hotel and hospitality sector, 8 teachers of English as a foreign language are scheduled to participate. Activities: Vocational work placements in nursery schools, in restaurants and kitchens and practical training sessions in the colleges of our project partners, as well as immersion courses for our EFL teachers.Project management: many years of experience with similar projects, constant improvements after evaluation and feedback with our partners.Expected results/effects/longterm benefit: Our voacational college will benefit with regard to its profile compared to other schools. The work placement abroad will provide an additional qualification for our students, it will improve language skills, and practical work experience which is an additional asset on the European job market. It also improves the profile of our vocational school and the particiapting partners in the dual apprenticeship sector of hotels and restaurants in our area. Without the Erasmus+ programme many of our students would not be able to gain this work experience abroad. The EU grant makes it possible that also financially and socially disadvantaged students can participate.
