Learning a profession in Germany
Date du début: 15 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 14 sept. 2017 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Our Project "Learning a Profession in Germany" was born of the desire of a group of teachers at IES Pintor Pedro Gómez in Huelva, including the Principal, Vice Principal, Vocational Training Area Coordinator an Bilingual Project Coordinator, to take a step forward in the process of modernization and internationalization of our Educational Institution, offering students who attend our intermediate Vocational Training courses the possibility to serve part of the Training Module on Workplace in another country within the European Union. It is an Erasmus+ KA102 mobility programme for Vocational Training students and staff, lasting one year and providing the flow of 23 students and 2 accompanying teachers to Germany.The Project is especially aimed at: stimulating interest in learning the foreign language, improving linguistic competences, expanding professional and personal horizons by taking apprenticeship in a country with a different cultural and professional environment, getting to know the business world in other countries, making contacts with European companies, getting to know different cultures and lifestyles, getting degrees recognized at European level and increasing the possibility of getting a quality employment.The participants are students at 2nd year Hairdressing, Mechanized, Welding, Electricity and Telecommunications. They are diverse in age, origin and social background, though most of them share their not having had the opportunity to leave their native places.We have chosen 4 programmes, 4weeks each, developed by the host organization for European projects Vitalis, cooperating with more than 100 small and large companies in the area of Leipzig and Halle.The first programme is called "Hairdressing". It is addressed to 5 students of medium level Vocational Training Cycle Hairdressing and Hair Cosmetics. The second programme is called "Electricity" and is addressed to 3 students of medium level Vocational Training Cycle Electric and Automated Installations. The third programme, "3D-Printer", is aimed at 10 students of medium level Vocational Training Cycle Telecommunications. The last programme is called "Mechanics/Mechatronics", and is aimed at 5 students of medium level Vocational Training Cycle Mechanized and Welding. As regards methodology, we particularly aim at putting new procedures into practice at our own Institution. The methodology will be both descriptive and practical, integrated in CLIL-Content and Language Integrated Learning, since students will learn practical and theoretical contents through a foreign language, English, a language totally mastered by teachers and Vitalis and collaborating companies staff.Our Project meets the needs diagnosed in our educational Institution, as it will enable students serving part of their apprenticeship in Germany to have a degree recognized at European level, thus increasing their chances of getting a quality employment.The experience widespread, through our website, school facebook, press, local radio and TV channels, Power Point displays to staff meetings and School Board, eTwinning, results platform for Erasmus projects and information conferences, would have an impact at local level, since it would foster the setup of other mobility projects in other schools in the area and would definitely improve prospective local workers qualifications. In addition, we would expect more collaborating companies for our students serving their apprenticeship, since they would contemplate the possibility to benefit from the knowledge acquired by our students after their experience working in German companies. This fact would undoubtly contribute to local and provincial development, while our educational Institution, already a benchmark for Vocational Training in Huelva, would take a step forward in its process of modernization and internationalization , adding more quality to the qualifications currently offered.
