The objectives of the project "Entrepreneurship - a school for students and teachers" are part of the overall strategy "Europe 2020". With its realization our goal was together with our German partner F + U Sachsen gGmbH to acquire one of the main competencies of the European reference framework, namely "initiative and entrepreneurship", to reach European standards in entrepreneurship education and organizing travel agency activities. high school students. Agricultural Vocational High School "Kl. Timiryazev" has been implementing the training programs for years: Training company and Education company, as well as the initiatives of Junior Achievement Bulgaria in entrepreneurship. Upgrading, we wanted to use the project to give young people the opportunity to expand their understanding of the economy, the way and processes of starting a business, working in a real environment. Their participation in mobility aimed at forming and developing skills such as creative thinking, initiative, perseverance, ability to assess risk and a sense of responsibility. Through this we wanted to help turn their ideas into action and develop common competencies applicable in all areas of life. As one of the goals of the project we defined the sharing of the practical features in the application of the dual system for vocational education and its suitability for Bulgaria. This is one of the motives for the mobility of teachers in vocational training. They will consider the new systems and methods of training in vocational education, will introduce into their practice new ways of educating and will strengthen their skills for team building and development. The project aims to develop and use Europass and ECVET documents by signing a Memorandum of Understanding. Each participant will receive a Europass Mobility certificate.
