Strengthen the internationalization process of our center making it a benchmark for other centers both locally, regionally or internationally.
The IES Politécnico de Vigo has been participating in International Projects for several years, always with very positive results, both for our teachers (who have expanded their knowledge of new study-learning techniques and their application in the classroom), for the students (part of our students have developed a greater awareness of belonging to Europe, a greater interest in training and work activities in Europe and more interest in learning different European languages), for the center (better atmosphere in classes, better qualifications, more academic and job opportunities for our students) and for the educational community in general. With this project it was intended to continue with the training of our teachers, expanding the number of participants and reaching and motivating more students so that they can have an academic and work opportunity. This project was also considered an opportunity to continue the process of internationalization and European projection, in addition to reverting very positively to the educational quality of the center. Currently, our center is accredited in School Education and professional training, which consolidates our commitment to internationalization.
