The project offers the opportunity to absolve an abroad vocational placement in a medical resp. therapeutic institution in Cheltenham (England) and Llantristant (Wales), Bad Radkersburg and Münster (both Austria) to four students of the vocational college of Occupational Therapy Guenzburg. Apart from Ms Kaulisch's placement they are additional four-week-placements to the four regular placements in context of their vocational training. Ms Kaulisch is going to absolve an eleven-week- placement as regular part of her vocational training. The participants have the opportunity to experience their profession, Occupational Therapy, in a different healthpolitics-related context other than in Germany under the supervision and mentoring of their tutors, who all are occupational therapists with several years of professional experience. The role of occupational therapists in the host countries varies strongly from the German pendant. In this context the students get the opportunity to extend and amplify their professional competences in the practical treating of different kinds of clients. All of the students have the opportunity to use and amplify their skills of professional English (subject of their first year of vocational training), as well as to confirm their skills of everyday English and (partly) learn new languages (Welsh). The placements, they're about to visit in summer/ autumn/ winter 2016 work according to current international guidelines (ICF) and frameworks of Occupational Therapy (OT models like MOHO, CMOP) as well as selected occupational therapy concepts, like sensory integrative therapy, in which the participants will get an insight in. All over Europe occupational therapy shows itself to be a profession in an ongoing dynamic change. In Germany there is a reinforcement of the dualism of vocational college and university studies. For our students this means that they have to compete not only with other graduates from vocational colleges but also with the graduating students from the universities. Our students shall practise their competences, gained during their vocational training at the vocational college of Occupational Therapy Guenzburg in working practically in an abroad occupational therapy institution resp. department. By this they should realize as well as recognize their own competences and value as well as extend them. Being on their own in an unknown environment in a foreign country the young adults will rise their personal competences and gain more independence, flexibility and personal maturity. In addition the language skills of the participants in speaking, comprehension and writing in a foreign language will extend during their stay in the English or Spanish speaking countries. In participating in the Erasmus+ project we want to improve the competitiveness and employability of our students and ease their possible professional entry abroad.
