Europäische Impulse für Leipzig`s berufliche Ausbildung
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The Mobility project "European Contributions to Leipzig`s vocational education and training" aims to offer eight trainees from the LAB - Vocational training and further education center of the Public transport company Leipzig the opportunity to extend their professional abilities and to deepen their personal, cultural and language skills through an learning experience in Seville Spain. The trainees from the vocational training from the field of administration and mechatronics will participate in a three-week placement in the administration department or workshop of a transport company in Seville to extend their skills and contribute their knowledge in their field of training. Furthermore the project aims to improve their Spanish and English language skills and to strengthen their self-confidence and self-awareness. A 20-hour Spanish language course as well as the support of a tutor by the hosting organisation Praktica will ensure a successfull start into a new working environment and everyday life in Seville. Besides the three-week stay will offer various opportunities to gain insights into culture, tradition and history of Seville and Spain in general. wisamar will host three meetings, two before the beginning and one after the stay in Seville, in order to prepare and evaluate the programme and placements with the trainees and trainers of the LAB. Placements, accommodation, language course and travel will be organized in cooperation from wisamar and Praktica. This applies also to management, monitoring and evaluation tasks, which will include e.g. profound evaluation of aims and results of the programme and work experience. The objectives of the projects are strengthening and extending professional skills and knowledge of the participants as well as a distinct improvement of their language skills. Additionally the project is meant to contribute to the personal and social development of the participants, e.g. of their self-esteem, the ability to contribute and integrate in different living and working environments and to gain awareness of own abilities and competences. The participants will benefit from their experiences abroad over a long term, improving their chances on the labour market by gaining important skills and competences, which will improve their professional profile. For the LAB training center the successfull participation within a mobility project further improves their positive engagement within vocational education in Leipzig and raises interest in their vocational education offers.
