Optimiser la Mobilité en Europe Grâce Au Tutorat
Start date: Jun 1, 2016, End date: May 31, 2018 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The OMEGAT project - Optimize Mobility in Europe Through Pastoral Care - is part of an ambitious strategy to increase the level of international opening of the academy and reach over 50% of vocational high schools with a mobility program, by reinforcing the Euro-Mediterranean anchor and feeding the transversal strategic challenges of the academy around the fight against school dropout.Indeed, the international opening of the academy is relatively low. Partnerships are underrepresented in countries where the languages are dominant in learning. International is rarely integrated as a strategic setting in schools, while it becomes essential for families, employers and students. The academy is facing significant social challenges favoring forms of segregation. Openness to the world is to help build new representations; cultural diversity should be presented as a virtue and an opportunity rather than as a liability. A bearing effect is therefore imperative so that the international irrigates the academy and contributes to the Erasmus + 2020 objectives.In 2014, the number of dropouts in Aix-Marseille Academy reached 12.7%, ranking second in France. It is also in vocational schools that we observe the highest number of dropouts.With this in mind and the success of our previous two projects, DAREIC, GIP FCIP and the PACA Region wish to support 31 vocational high schools in the implementation of work experiences in Europe for 575 students in Baccalauréat Professionnel for 24 months.The 575 participants are students from disadvantaged socio-cultural environment. The main objective is to give them the opportunity to live an experience that will be an essential added value for their socio-professional integration. In practical terms, reinforced support will be offered by using specialized structures in supporting the mobility of young people having fewer opportunities through non-formal education methods.When they come back to France, young people will also work on the transmission of experience and enhancement of the project within the school with 1st year pupils to act as multipliers of European mobility by inspiring the desire and motivation to their peers. Pupils will use European certificates (Europass CV, Language passport) and will receive a Europass Mobility and Mobility credits.GIP FCIP, the project initiator will facilitate administrative and financial procedures in partnership with schools financial management services. The DAREIC will coordinate all the preparation, mentoring, implementation and enhancement of mobility activities of each school working together with the PACA Region. Consortium members will operationalize various activities and will be a source of proposals via a mentoring scheme and the establishment of a collaborative platform named M@gistère.The objective of this project is to provide these young people with the opportunity to experiment mobility for a better employability. This could be achieved through the dissemination of information, personalized pre-departure coaching and by making the most of gained experience thus creating the conditions for success within schools.GIP-FCIP, DAREIC and Region will work as a steering committee that will evaluate and measure the impact of the project in order to develop a strategy to improve practices as well as the quality of mobility and capitalize on acquired experiences. The impacts of this project are numerous. This experience will be a structuring step in the personal and professional development of these young and a tool to clarify their professional project. Locally, this project will help improve the image of vocational training courses making them more attractive. More broadly, it will have positive impacts in terms of economic development and social cohesion on the territory as this multi partnership consortium will pool reflection with regard to a priority educational theme, develop the coordination of actors, exchange practices in the development of public policies around the PACA region youth mobility.
