The main aim of the “Virtual Vocational Education and Training – VIRTUS” project is to develop an innovative, fully functional virtual vocational education and training centre, which will provide appropriately designed modular certified courses in: 1. Tourism and Hospitality Services 2. Social Entrepreneurship, corresponding to regional growth potential and skills needs and targeting at increasing the participation rate of Adult Learners in continuing VET. The “main priority” that project VIRTUS addresses is Priority 4 – Opening up (virtual or physical) infrastructures of education and training institutions to adult learning and provision of modular certified learning opportunities, of Strand 1 – Education and Training field. Each of the two courses will be developed according to ECVET standards and will have a duration of five weeks, 2-4 hours per week. Courses will consist of video lectures, slide presentations, self-assessment quizzes and a final assessment exam in a simulated VET Centre environment. Learners from Italy, Austria, Greece and Spain will attend the modular courses, in both synchronous and asynchronous e-learning environments, offered by the virtual VET Centre. The video lectures will be delivered in English and will be subtitled in the other four languages of the consortium (ES, IT, GR, DE). Access to the Virtual VET Centre will be provided through the VIRTUS website. Furthermore, the created VIRTUS Virtual Community will bring together adult learners, VET professionals, tourism professionals and social entrepreneurs, NGOs and communities, policy-makers and the general public.
