The DMCI TEFL 2016project will offer VET learners opportunities to gain valuable European work experience and knowledge within the Digital Media, Creative Industries and Teaching English as a Foreign Language sectors. The project partnership includes Host Employers from Spain, Germany and the Czech Republic selected for their ability to provide high-quality and relevant placements to our VET learners.The project will offer European work placements for learners from Capacity London’s vocational courses in: • Digital Marketing and Social Media for Business• Professional Practice for the Creative Industries• Teaching English To Speakers Of Other LanguagesThese placements will provide an invaluable bridge for participants from their vocational training course to employment or self-employment in their chosen sector. It will also provide a platform for learners to enhance their language skills and develop a cultural understanding that will help them become more mobile within Europe in their future careers.The primary objectives of the project are to: • Support the aspirations of VET learners by providing them with work experience to enhance their recently developed vocational skills• Assist VET learners in moving into future employment in the Digital Media, Creative Industries and Teaching English sectors in the UK or across Europe• Enable participants to develop linguistic and cultural skills essential to accessing employment in other countries within the European market• Enhance links between our VET provision for the Digital Media, Creative Industries and Teaching English and employers in these sectors to support pathways from VET courses into the world of workFor all three sectors the opportunity to undertake a professional placement in another EU country will support participants in establishing a career in their chosen field. To that end the specific objectives of the DMCI TEFL 2016 project are:• To support the aspirations of VET learners by providing them with work experience within employers that will develop their newly learned skills• To assist VET learners in moving into employment in the Digital Media, Creative Industries and Teaching English sectors, in the UK or across Europe• To enable participants to develop the linguistic and cultural skills required to access employment in other countries within the European labour marketParticipants entering the DMCI TEFL 2016 through Capacity London’s Digital Media vocational qualification will be from one of two distinct groups with diverse backgrounds. The first group are young people who are taking a more traditional vocational training route, rather than entering higher education, and that have limited work experience. The second group will be those who are undertaking vocational training to update or expand their range of skills of those that are seeking a career change. Participants entering the DMCI TEFL 2016 project through Capacity London’s Professional Practice for the Creative Industries vocational qualification will be those people with creative craft skills who want to develop their employability, professional practice and business skills. These individuals need to gain experience in the industry side of their field in order to learn to apply their skills to generate an income. Participants entering the DMCI TEFL 2016 project through Capacity London’s Teaching English To Speakers of other Languages vocational qualification are students who have completed the English Teaching qualification but lack work experience. Undertaking a work placement abroad will be a major factor in enabling them to compete effectively in the jobs market. Learning Outcomes for the participants will be focussed around three key themes:(1) General employability learning outcomes(2) Linguistic and cultural learning outcomes(3) Vocation specific learning outcomesParticipants will attain a number of benefits from the project, including improved professional skills for the target sector and enhanced employability, as well as increased linguistic and cultural skills.The most significant measure of the impact of the project for participants will be success in securing sustainable employment after they have completed their mobility placements. Based on our experience of previous mobility projects, we expect that, of the 98 participants, 74 will enter employment within 3 months of completing their mobility and, of these, 67 (90%) will sustain employment for at least 6 months. The project will raise awareness of the opportunities and benefits offered by the Erasmus Plus programme and promote all three project vocational area Industries as vital parts of the trade landscape at national and European levels.
