Formation professionnelle en entreprise d’hôtellerie restauration de l‘union européenne
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

wo types of students, aged from 16 to 19, will be targeted by the “mobilities” : - those who are in the second year of their “hospitality and catering” diploma (BAC technologique) and who are studying in either the Spanish or the English European sections. - those who are in the second or final year of their “hospitality and catering” vocational diploma (specializing either in cooking or in restaurant skills) (BAC professionnel) and who are part of, or not, the Spanish European section. The vocational college “Antonin Carême” has at present one “hospitality and catering” section “BAC technologique” (which has 12 students at each level of study - first, second and final year) and three classes in the “hospitality and catering” vocational section “BAC professionnel” (each having 24 students at each level of study). We intend to have 5 “mobility” periods per year : 2 in Spain and 3 in Great Britain. Before the first “mobility” period in Spain the 8 chosen students will benefit from a one week full immersion period in the “hospitality and catering” college of Alcala. The beneficiaries will be accompanied by a professional teacher, a Spanish teacher and the head of our college’s hospitality and catering department so as to drawn up the terms of a partnership. This partnership will allow both schools to regularly exchange their students and will also enable both schools to place their students in a constantly renewed selection of work placements. The students will be placed, whether it is in Britain or in Spain, in hospitality related work placements that are often affiliated to international chains. The students will become fully integrated members of the kitchen and restaurant staff and will carry out tasks related to the work of a typical commis chef or commis waiter. During the one week full immersion period in the “hospitality and catering” college of Alcala, it has been agreed that the students will be placed in classes that follow a similar program to their own and that they will go to all the classes given during that week. One particular day will be devoted to the preparation and the service of a meal; a meal that will be made thanks to the combined efforts of the Alcala and Savigny students. For all beneficiaries these “mobilities” are about developing multiple skills and qualities which can be summed up as follows; -developing the linguistic skills that are essential in the hospitality industry. - improving the employablilty of our students. - developing autonomy, adaptability and the transfer of skills. -enriching, in a humane and cultural way, a public that does not normally desire to discover or even accept differences. - inspire our students to want a “Europe” and to be part of the European project - For the vocational students (BAC professionnel) we can add that the “mobility” gives more meaning to the teaching of foreign languages and core subjects in general. It helps to draw in and interest students who no longer want to be in the educational system. The desired results concerning the partnership are ; - the strengthening of relations between the overseas work placements and the partnering school. - the discovery of new establishments which we would hope would become future partners. - the exchange of practice which will enable us to optimize our performance regarding “mobilities” and the education of our students. To achieve these objectives we will rely once again on the implementation of a time-tested organization that has already carried out 20 years of European “mobilities” in our college. Nominating coordinators will also help to ensure the harmonization of practice and the coordination of the different aspects of each “mobility” project. Two “mobilities” in Cyprus for teachers are also asked for so as to improve the efficiency in the management of the mobility programs.
