Praktika in ausländischen Unternehmen – Workplacements in British Enterprises
Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Our project deals with work experience in London. Together with our partner, ADC College, we offer two weeks of practical experience in companies from different areas of business and a one week language course at the beginning of the stay. The companies can be real estate agents, wholesale companies etc.. Moreover our pupils stay in host families in London. Work experience and life in a host family enable the students to test their competence regarding getting around in new unknown areas and situations. These are things not only employers expect nowadays. Especially moveability and openness are important competences adults should have nowadays. Firstly the stay in London is prepared in the English lessons at school before the work experience starts. Pupils learn how to behave in different situations in foreign countries and how to treat partners from different cultures. Moreover we meet several times to prepare the stay. These meetings will deal with questions like living in a host family or the city of London as a place to live. Together with our partner, ADC College, we work out a program for the stay in London. This mainly includes a language course (one week) and the work experience (two weeks). In the first week there is a meeting with the complete group every morning dealing with current problems etc. After the stay we put emphasis on the evaluation of the stay. Every participant has to write a report about the time in London and everyone should be prepared to present this report to fellow pupils, teachers or employers. In cooperation with ADC College as proof of participation in the project we hand out the Europass Mobility. Moreover every participant gets a special certificate from Eugen-Schmalenbach Berufskolleg and a supplementary note as part of their annual report.
