"de la brique à la pierre"
Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Preparation and sending under-qualified students from the building section to Auvergne, in France. They'll stay 3 weeks in Bains (Le Puy en Velay) to learn how to white-wash a wall, how to cut and lay stones, to learn different styles of brickworking, so they can easily find a job later, as in exemple, in Belgian Ardennes. They'll move and change regions more easily. In Auvergne, they'll follow one week of vocational training in a continuing education center (CFA), and during two weeks, they'll work in the field to improve theyr knolegge. The students will be evaluated several times : once after the first week (by the CFA), once after the two weeks of practical work (by their teachers and the bosses). The students will also evaluate their own job and tell if it came up to their expectations and if they would recommand their experience to other students. What do we expect : advertising (more inscriptions in the building sections in Belgium, where there are less students at the moment); increasing students and teachers self confidence and satisfaction; let people know about FSE projects; and changing mentalities among your young population about these kind of projects. In concrete terms, we want to improve the knolegge and the knowhow among students in a hard to find a job region and to learn a different way of living. Expected advantages on the long term : -more chances to find a job as "cutting stones workman" -more chances to have more than one's string to one's bow. -more chances to change mentalities to work more 5 km far from home (many young people don't want to change regions and don't want to more away from home to find a job) and so, they'll also increase their chance to find a job more easily.
