The project entitled “Experience for success. European internship – a multirateral chance for a Polish student" was designed to meet the requirements of work placement for students of Niepubliczne Technikum Zawodowe in Busko Zdrój ZDZ in Kielce (2nd form). A work placement is an integral part of the learning process. Work placement abroad doubtlessly increases the effectiveness and attractiveness of studies. The participants of the project were the students of the 2nd form studying at course ‘Hotel Industry Specialist’. Planned number of students depended on the number of students studying at the aforementioned course, therefore there was one group of participants of course: 'Hotel Industry Specialist' – 10 students.

The participating students were selected on the basis of their suitability for the placement. The internship is designed to be an inspiration and an opportunity to gain knowledge and work experience in an European environment.
