The implementation of European policies is an ever-present cross-cutting issue in all areas of our administration. European laws and regulations be respected, European funds are requested, managed and billed to tackle the local problems in urban development, the promotion of employment or to support and improve the social, societal and cultural achievements. The administration is the mediator between the European Union and its citizens. The diverse tasks of a municipality demand from each individual employee of Wuppertal administration a high and continuously updated "European competence".Therefore, the focus of this project is the individual and his development opportunities, in this case, the learners and the trainers.Priority objectives of the current Wuppertal personnel development strategy is to increase the attractiveness as trainers and employers and further on to prepare employees more fully for the challenges of the future.In 2015 started 54 trainees (in 2016 53 trainees) and 18 candidates of the fire brigade in a total of 19 vocational trainings her career in industrial-technical and skilled trades, business - and IT occupations, in bachelor's degree programs and to civil servants in the technical services.The core of the project is the matching and individualised monitoring system of EU-mobility, which• ships 40 colleagues (20 learners and 20 VET staff) in a tailor-made EU-Mobilityo selects through an open transparent application procedureo intensively prepares using the SEL-Target Setting, Erasmus mobility or learning agreement (“mobility map” with specific documents), as well as individual workshops and individual sessions,o perfectly accompanied by a "mentor intern" and "Mentor extern"o pushes reflection modules and sustainable transfer into everyday workThe EU will mobilities take place take place at our partners in Vienna, Florence and Campobasso, Stockholm, Meran, Pleven, Sofia and its longstanding partner cities Kosice, St. Etienne and South Tynside.With the capitals Vienna and Stockholm we have partners that offer a wide variety of topics (e.g. Vienna: open government, citizen participation; Stockholm: IT services, integration of refugees).
