Petroc Go II
Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 août 2018 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Petroc Go II is a Key Action 1 Project which builds upon the successes of the current Petroc Go project , expanding it to include additional vocational groups and partner organizations allowing 420 students and 82 staff from the college to be involved in a series of 2 week placements throughout Europe in 2017 and 2018.The project targets participants in an isolated rural area, who face barriers to accessing education, training and personal/professional development opportunities. The area suffers from poor public transport, a low-skill low-wage economy, and a high cost of living. It also has a significantly higher than average proportion of micro-businesses, who lack the capacity to provide meaningful work experience opportunities to support young people to develop their aspirations and employability skills.The participants in this project will be drawn from students taking courses with Petroc at any of our campuses. The destinations chosen for the project will primarily be focussed on specific vocational area/groups of students to ensure maximum benefit for their programme of study and future career. The main target groups for each destination are as follows:1 - France (Avoriaz ) – Outdoor Education & Sports; Public Services2 - Spain (Barcelona) – Automotive, Engineering, Business Management, Beauty and Hairdressing2 - Romania (Ramnicu Valcea) – Rugby and Sports Academies3 - Austria (Graz) – Volleyball Academy;4 - Malta (Humrun & Goza) - Animal Conservation 5 - Sweden (Katrineholm) – Early Years Care & Education, Teaching Assistants and Travel and Tourism;6 - Sweden (Gothenburg) - Hospitality and Catering7 - The Netherlands (Zwolle) – Fitness & Sport.The project will enhance participants’ employability skills, as well as their cultural horizons, though the following range of activities:Tailored work programmes in local garages, offices,factories and hair salons in Barcelona;Working in Romanian primary schools to develop coaching and fitness skills, focussing on Tag Rugby;Working alongside staff and students from Austria’s leading school Volleyball Academy to develop coaching and fitness skills;Working alongside winter sports and hospitality staff in the Alpine Ski Resort of Avoriaz;Working and training with staff and students running the Dutch college’s Fitness Centres in the Netherlands;Work experience in educational organizations , local nurseries schools and a travel resort in Sweden.Working alongside a dedicated Research team studying the local Shark population around the coasts of MaltaThe project will be overseen by the College’s highly experienced Projects Team, working alongside curriculum staff to ensure participants are able to maximize the opportunities available to them in the various partner countries in order to enable them to develop a greater cultural understanding of life in modern Europe; increase their self-confidence; raise their aspirations; and, most importantly, develop skills which will considerably increase their employability and boost the economic development of the Petoc catchment area.Through this project, a larger number of participants will be involved in European mobility than ever before, in a strategically planned manner, which will form part of a longer-term strategy to increase the involvement of young people in the Erasmus+ Programme throughout Devon.
