Through this new mobility project, ENAC and its members, therefore, to “Promote the internationalization of its training offer” and, in particular, to “Improve the quantity and quality of outgoing mobility”.

Project's Goals

More generally, with this and other new Erasmus+ projects in which ENAC is partner or leader, we want to contribute to the economic and social prosperity of the context(s) in which we operate by providing staff and students with the opportunity to develop international competences and to deal with training institutions abroad, promoting the exchange of good practices and innovation processes.

Activities

As per the VET Mobility Charter application form, this project is for students and staff members who study/work in the vocational training centres/schools of the Canossian network active in six Italian regions in order to develop their professional and transversal skills through the following activities:
  • Internship abroad for students in initial vocational training in a company for a period of 3/4 weeks (more mature and prepared students);
  • Internship abroad for students in initial vocational training in a VET centre with learning periods in companies or in another relevant context for a period of 3/4 weeks (more fragile students);
  • Internship abroad for newly qualified and/or newly-graduated in a company for a period of 3/4 months (students who have just left a training course, more motivated and not yet in the labour market);
  • Job shadowing activities in companies and/or VET centres abroad for the staff for 4/5 days
  • Advance planning visits for a good organization of the longest students mobility, i.e. ErasmusPro
The use of the ECVET system is envisaged for the enhancement and recognition of learning outcomes acquired abroad. Therefore the ECVET tools developed in the GORES project and improved in previous mobility projects will be used.
