The project was designed to include two distinct activities : 1 - Internship of ATEC's trainees (Palmela and Porto) at Audi in Ingolstadt (Germany), Volkswagen in Wolfsburg and Hannover (Germany) and Bentley in Cheshire (England). 2 - Observation period of ATEC's training managers at Bentley in Cheshire, England. In the first activity, 24 young people aged between 16 and 25 years old, from several appretticeship courses, will have the opportunity to undertake a period of practical training in a working environment in one of the partner organizations listed. Given that they are young people , some of whom come from unfavorable media or with fewer opportunities and without any traveling experience, they will be accompanied by 4 ATEC technicians who will be distributed by different groups in order to facilitate the integration of graduates in the first week of the mobilities. The second activity, involves two staffs with training management functions, with decision-making capacity, which will have the opportunity to, in different time periods, observe the processes of training management at Bentley, collecting good practices that may be adapted to the national context and reality. The realization of these mobilities, besides allowing the acquisition of skills to participants and individual notoriety gains, also ensures an international presence of ATEC. It is expected that the project's impact transvaze its participants, including the level of motivation of the remaining ATEC's trainees, the incorporation of new practices in the rest of the organizational structure and even in companies that may benefit from new training practices or whether come to benefit from the skills of trainees in the event of employability.
