Kopernika faces another challenge to realize new tasks aiming at the improvement of the quality of teaching, taking into consideration the growing need of the students, their parents as well as the employers. The school’s development lets its graduates fit into the job market easily or to continue their education at universities. The project “European vocational apprenticeship – the experience for today and for tomorrow “ develops the experience worked out throughout the previous four years of the school’s foreign vocational apprenticeships.

The Regional Employers Association “PODBESKIDZIE”, the representatives of job center in Oświęcim as well as one of the largest employing company in the area - GRUPA KĘTY S.A. also contributed to the project preparation. Due to the fact that we have just started the cooperation with a new partner – TellUs Education Group, the project opens new possibilities of learning the English attitude to a job, to the personal competence relating to a particular line of business as well as practical learning and improving a foreign language emphasizing vocational vocabulary. 33 technical college students will take part in the project. 9 mechanics, 16 hotel management technicians, 8 culinary technicians. They will develop and improve their occupational competence during the two year planned area of activity. (09.2016-08.2018) The students will participate in the 4-week apprenticeship in foreign companies while learning new methods and techniques of their occupations as well as learning specific activities and tasks necessary for their future jobs. They will acquire new experiences and qualifications, know the newest technologies and find out about the specific way of managing foreign business enterprises. Above all, they will master their English skills including vocational vocabulary and they will also become even better motivated about their educational progress. The trip abroad will be preceded by pedagogical, cultural, language and risk prevention preparation. The partner organization TellUs Education Group in Plymouth (England) will take the role of an organizer during the stay in the host country. This will be a great opportunity to get to know the richness of culture and heritage of the partner country – England. Cross-cultural competence will be developed such as tolerance, acceptance, openness. The attitude towards cultural differences will be improved. Stereotypes will be overcome. The project will support the people of low living standard, low income, difficult family situation, coming from small towns or villages and those with health problems.

Whereas the skills acquired by students will be confirmed by Europass Mobility. The school will provide the certificates confirming the level of language skills in terms of vocational vocabulary. The foreign employers will grade the students abilities and skills acquired during their apprenticeship in the Evaluation Card.
