The Atlantic Erasmus Training Consortium (AETC) is a partnership composed of 3 higher education institutions (Faculdade de Ciências Humanas/Universidade Católica Portuguesa; Escola Superior de Hotelaria e Turismo do Estoril; Universidade do Algarve) and The Lean Insight, an associate national partner. The AETC Consortium strives to partner higher education institutions in providing a broad and diversified range of curricular and extracurricular internships that endows participants with real experiences of working in multicultural and pluri-lingual professional contexts across the European Union. To many students and recent graduates this is the first opportunity to have a professional experience, which is fundamental to their career development. This internationalization of student academic and professional experiences fulfils one of the main goals of the Consortium, specifically that of not only reinforcing the national and international prestige of academic degrees conferred by partner higher education institutions but also boosting their capacities and profiles as entities deepening and strengthening close ties between the worlds of academia and work in a globalized world characterized by the mobility of both people and knowledge. The Consortium aims to enable and empower students and recent graduates through an academically certified experience of internationalization that enriches their academic and professional backgrounds and facilitates their adaptation and integration into various different labour markets. The target group comprises students and recent graduates from higher education partner institutions (B.A., M.A., and PhD. courses). Since its creation in 2012, and within the framework of the 3 first subventions already concluded, more than two hundred students and recent graduates have benefitted from an Erasmus grant to do international traineeships through the AETC. In the period under analysis in this report (from July 1, 2014 to May 31, 2016) 64 students and recent graduates received a grant and 2 students did their mobility with a zero-grant. The AETC has consolidated its name both in HEIs and in non-academic contexts (with its national partner associate and host entities). This is demonstrated by the increasing number of requests made by former host entities, so that they can receive more trainees through the AETC. It is undeniable that the existence of the Consortium has allowed more students and recent graduates in each partner HEI to benefit from grants, thus enriching their CVs, as the optimal execution of attributed grants in the period under analysis demonstrates. Erasmus consortia, in sum, are key to foster employability, mobility and the sharing of good practices in the European Union.
