The Camilo Castelo Branco School Group is located in the North of Portugal and is part of the Vale do Ave area, which is characterized by a low workforce and low professional qualification. In the Camilo Castelo Branco School Group, a significant number of students come from low and middle income families, with low motivation to study and low cultural experiences outside the school context. In view of the above, and in order to provide young people with greater and better opportunities for vocational training, we believe that it is imperative to move towards internationalization in order to take advantage of the enormous potential of the Erasmus + program and to achieve the following objectives: - Optimize the success of students and their inclusion in the digital economy of the 21st century so that they are strongly identified with European identity and contribute actively to European construction and development; - Understand new trends in skills needed for a successful career, responding to European challenges in the European Community; - to achieve qualified employment, to take advantage of European opportunities in order to adapt to changes in labor markets and to take advantage of employment opportunities in Europe; - Adapt to changes in labor markets; - Respond fully to the new trends and challenges inherent in the skills required for a successful career; - Identify yourself at a higher and deeper level with the European Commission's guidelines on vocational education and youth employment; - Perform a work experience with new training opportunities, to acquire specific professional skills; - To increase the labor market integration of young people in the increasingly global and competitive labor market; - Improve the relationship between the training area and the needs of the labor market; - Increase the level of personal and professional training of the participants; - Expand partnership networks at international level; - To promote quality in the school organization and to promote the visibility of the Grouping; - Promote Professional Education as a quality alternative; - Facilitate greater entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship; - Contribute to a European awareness leading to an active and participatory citizenship.

Of all these courses, 15 students will be selected to carry out an international internship and 4 teachers in order to support their professional development, which will have repercussions on future activities. Young people through participation in this project will achieve the following objectives: to consolidate knowledge, acquire new skills and become more competitive in access to the labor market; learning / developing new languages, new ways of communicating, relationship skills with other cultures; recognize Europe as a common space for all Europeans; integrate more easily into the world of work. At the end of this project, we hope to have been able to actively contribute to the recognition of Europe as a space for all citizens, to help participants achieve their professional goals, and to be aware that mobility is increasingly determining and necessary to be competitive in the labor market. We believe that this project offers added value, providing the young people of the Camilo Castelo Branco Schools Group with solutions to their real needs and training needs and professional experience, allowing them to face the job market with more optimistic perspectives, being better prepared . The AECCB aims to accelerate a mobility of 3 months for students of the following professional courses: Sales, Fashion Design, Management and Programming of Computer Systems, Audiovisuals, Graphic Design and Restoration (Kitchen / Pastry), with a total of 16 students. This definition of number refers to the distribution of the various courses. 4 of the courses work with a full class. For each of these 4 groups, 3 students will be reserved for a total of 12 students. The other two courses form a single class, so that 2 students from each course will be selected, making a total of 4 places. The final total will be 16 students. These will conduct their FCT, which will start in March 2020.
