Start date: Aug 1, 2014, End date: Jul 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Our school would like to send vocational students to different participant schools of Erasmus+ program. We would like to send - 4 students of bakery-confectionery and 2 students of meat-processing to the Vocational School of Brest, France, which is managed by the IFAC Commercial Chamber of Brest, - 4 students of meat processing and 2 students of bakery-confectionery to the Tampere Vocational College Tredu, Finland. The duration of the projects would be 6 weeks. There are 12 students involved in this project. 4 of them would be from socially underprivileged or financially limited family background. The period of this whole project would be from 01 Aug 2014 to 01 jul 2015. The exact terms are the following: - in Tampere between november 2014 and the middle of december 2014. - in Brest between March 2015 and the middle of April 2015. At the time of the project our vocational students of bakery-confectionery will be in their 12th or 13th year of their studies, while students of meat processing will be in their 12th year of their studies. Their age will be between 18 and 21 years. Students are required to work in the workshops of the host institutes. It is also planned for them to work in plants of local food industry enterprises. In our opinion this project is an excellent opportunity of motivating students. During the process of this international relationship students are helped to recognize the importance of life-long learning. In the following years it can be an advantage in the students’ future career, at the stage of their job-seeking. After finishing successfully this training the students receive international Europass certifications about the completed program. They will have to take practical exams in the host institute and in the home school, too. The results of these exams will be counted as part of their general school progress. This kind of experience in a foreign country can contribute to the development of the students’ vocational skills and foreign language skills, too. It can also improve their attitude and motivation towards their chosen profession. The common aims of the sending institute and the host institutes are the contribution to sustainable economic development in the European Union by the efforts of the students who will be able to learn new methods during their whole lives. A highly developed economic region has been proposed and described as a priority in the resolution of the European Parliament and the European Council (resolution. number: 1720/2006/EK). This international cooperation can also help to improve teaching methods of bakery-confectionery and meat processing in Hungarian vocational schools. It might also be a step towards a common framework of bakery-confectionery and meat processing, based on competences and skills. Taking consideration of the future development, a shared work would be a desirable aim by the French, Finnish and Hungarian participant schools. The project is based on mutuality. This project will be able to fulfil the major goals of the program, including general practical development of students in the field of bakery-confectionery or meat processing. The county of Finistere in France (Brest) and the county of Csongrád (Szeged) are twin counties, so the cooperation of the Commercial Chambers of these two counties could be really fruitful through the common work of the schools. We are going to choose our participant students from as many points of view as possible. A pre-selection round is going to be held in our school, and after this first round we will be able to appoint the most talented and most dedicated students. The project management are experienced colleagues of our school. We are dealing with the next important points: establishing the project management team; defining the aims of the project; choosing the appropriate participant students after careful selection; preparing students (English language, culture of France and Finland, vocational skills, psychology); writing full account after arriving back home; presentation of new skills and new products; taking final exams by the students; evaluation of the whole project; delivering Europass certifications to the students.
