The overall goal of the City of Nuremberg is the europeanization and internationalization of its dual system of vocational training. Currently different models exist at each school which are not connected and intertwined with each other. There is much room for synergy effects and improvement. In an initial phase schools without experience in Leonardo da Vinci projekts will get the chance to offer their students and graduates the opportunity to spend some time of their training/apprenticeship abroad through BS-NBG-EU. For this proposal we define three relevant target groups: students, graduates and teaching staff. During the project period of two years students and graduates will be sent abraod in small groups. The students get the chance tomake contact with new cultures and its people. They can experience the differences between worklife in Germany and other countries. At a later stage the department for vocational schools helps the EU-coordinators when it comes to submitting their own project proposals. We offer advice and organisational support. Next to this the vocational education staff (i.e. staff in charge of EU projects or staff from companies responsible for training) will have the opportunity to spend a work stay abroad in a European country. For improving the Europeanization of the Nuremberg vocational training system it is crucial to include this target group in the proposal. They can multiply their gained expereniences within their school/company. The objective of each work stay varies, depending on the stage of the partnership between the vocational school in Nuremberg and the foreign partner. Major aims are: - Study stay to gain job-specific and expert experience . - Initiation of new contacts and agreements on details for possible new mobility projects. The project implementation is launched by the Department for Vocational schools at the City of Nuremberg. First the vocational schools prepare the deployment. During the actual mobilities the project partners abroad is in charge. Our different project partners are also responsible for the provision of internship placements.
