Salo-Finland Vocational Training 2015
Start date: Nov 1, 2014, End date: Oct 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

With this Project we got some of our students had the opportunity to do their vocational training in the work placements, an experience in a European country as part of the module “FCT” (Training in the work placement) and at the same time improving their language skills (English) and cultural knowledge in the target country. Nowadays the process of internationalization of the trade and economic activity demands a skilled workforce with deep knowledge about the world of catering and hospitality and in this particular case about European food and cookery. Enterprises and social institutions of our environment demand a wider scope to do this training from another geographic perspective and with regard to standardization and validity of the qualifications gained. One of the objectives of our Education Center is to foster business and relationships with the environment and promote exchanges with other schools, both, domestic and foreign ones. In this project, CIFP PASEO DAS PONTES, was responsible for its coordination, for organizing the vocational training of two students in the host country for a period of 1 month, validating the training done abroad with our module “FCT” and certified by Europass Mobility document. Also, our Education Center arranged and organized the training of Finnish students in A Coruña. Two companies in the hospitality and catering sector in Finland and two in Spain joined the partnership between both institutes and they were the two entities responsible for giving practical training to the beneficiaries. Both Institutes have been working together for the last 15 years. Mobilities took place coinciding with the period of implementation of the “FCT” from March to June and they last one month. The fact that the host country is quite different from the country of origin on the beneficiaries, it widened the European vision of our students, Finland is a country with a wide tradition in educational exchanges, therefore the reception of students and teachers from other countries are very common.
