With the Project „Foreign internship of youth as a key to professional career” we meet the expectations of our students, school and the local society.The Janów district is situated in the south east Poland. It is mainly an agricultural region. We wish to help the graduates of our school to adapt to the changing labor market. We want them to obtain knowledge and skills necessary to become more competitive and successful, in order to be employed in a prosperous company.As a place of internship we have chosen Ireland. The main reason was the expectations of our students. Most of the students in ZST in Janów Lubelski (over 90%) choose English as an obligatory foreign language in their A-levels.An essential factor is also the cooperation with the Partner of Infinity Business College.
