We are applying to participate in the Erasmus training project in order to improve the quality of our school, teachers and students. For our three participating teachers we expect intercultural training and improvement of project management competences. We assume that they will pass on their newly acquired knowledge to their colleagues. We should thus see a growing enthusiasm for European projects and all the activities related to them. We also expect to be trained in the application for potential grants. The THS has to adapt to a changing job market, demography and problems of immigration. If we want to cope with the new tasks we need interdisciplinary and intercultural competences. We expect the Erasmus training courses to support the learning. And of course, it’s important for us to start networking on an international level, to discuss European issues and to develop ideas for solutions. Following this Erasmus project we intend to collaborate with other European schools to further develop the European thought. Summary: 1.
