The main objective of this project is to facilitate the social inclusion of the students of the Adapted Basic Qualification Training Programs of Special Education of our center. This objective is developed through different mechanisms, one of which is to obtain self-confidence in themselves from "supervised" practices in real work environments of the network of creative gastronomic cities of UNESCO in Europe. This internship within the ERASMUS+ program will facilitate the completion of your internship within your environment in a more empowered way and with more guarantees for obtaining a job at the end of your studies.
The Raquel Payá School of Special Education is a Special Needs School with extensive experience in ERASMUS+ Programs, both in School Education and Vocational Training; which always have the aim of offering the maximum possible experiences to the educational community of the school, with the intention of improving the quality of the education offered and therefore the quality of life of the people of said community. The projects carried out have been aimed at promoting innovation and favoring the Social Inclusion of our students. More specifically, this project was requested with the intention of establishing a cooperation network of educational and work centers in European UNESCO Creative Gastronomic Cities environments, which, in turn, has served seven students with special educational needs to carry out short-term internships, supervised by three companions (VET SHORT). These internships have been carried out in companies in Bergen (Norway) and in turn, good practice visits by professionals from the center in Gaziantep (Turkey).
