Objectives

Internationalization of the Center and reinforcement of the commitment to language learning throughout the educational community, as well as the improvement of the professional skills and competencies of participating students. Increased employability of our students and the impact the training they receive will have on the companies that hire them.

Results

The impact at the local level is very positive; several cooperatives in the area can enhance their international reach by hiring trained technicians with enhanced communication skills thanks to their training experience in EU countries.

At the provincial/regional level, also because our center's area of influence and the large number of companies it interacts with make this project a useful tool for them. In May 2017, a dissemination event was held to showcase the completed mobility projects, inviting local and provincial authorities to share the experiences and knowledge gained.

LONG-TERM BENEFITS: Improved early school leaving rates. Enhanced personal, social, and professional development of our students. Improved employability of students and recent graduates. Enhanced the vision and entrepreneurial spirit of the group. Strengthened the school's international dimension and corporate image. Improved employment benefits for recent graduates.
