Movil'FP Mobilité européenne et formation professionnelle
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The Region is responsible for the organization and financement of vocational training for young people (school leavers) and adults. It observes that VET-learners - especially the less-qualified - have less opportunities to European mobility. It then decided to build up a program to increase the European dimension within the training it funds. This program fits perfectly with the priorities of the Regional Agreement to improve VET, signed by the State and the Region for the period 2011-2015. For this first project, the program focuses on a small number of grants (75 over 2 years) and is based on a network of training organizations and partners with experience of European projects. European mobility will be offered to VET-learners enrolled in training courses funded by the Region. These are pre-qualification or certification courses level ISCED 1 and 2 , based on the principle of alternating periods of courses in a training center and periods of placements in a company for two weeks or more. The project is structured as a consortium with several training organizations. It is proposed to substitute for a part of the training, a European mobility, either for two weeks in a company, or two weeks in a training center offering a technical platform with professional simulation (eg. a training restaurant integrated into a training center). European partners are public authorities partners of the Regional Council (Hordaland, City of Ostend , Isle of Wight ), training organizations (Glasgow Clyde College) or agencies specialized in the placement of trainees ( GreenHorizons , Ireland). European Mobility opportunities will be given to professional training in the areas of: - Catering : hotel receptionist, clerk of floors, cook, waiter - Logistics: inventory management - Trade: customer relations, direct sales, retail - Industry: job discovery in the fields of offshore marine energies Other areas may be added according to the partners involved. For example, personal services and automation (regarding the European challenge of an ageing population). The Region manages and control the project. It also provides funding for training and remuneration of trainees (in tandem with Pôle Emploi). Training organizations provide educational organization of European mobility (course content, course venue, validation of results) and trip and journey facilities, relying on partner organizations. Objectives for learners : Improve learning skills - Get an experience of inclusion into a new organization of work - Exchange practices and know-how - Discover a new cultural environment, share best practices.
