Aims fo the project: - Make up a digital guide on good practices for training apprentinces considering both formal and informal training institutions. The idea is to benefit both employers and students, strenghtening the link between teaching, training and working. We want to establish high quality rules to avoid apprendices training to focus on low skill jobs or on a poor training process causing a damage to their reputation. In addition, we want to offer a way to excellence as qualiting training processes can also contriute to foster active citizenship and social inclusion by integrating people from different social and personal origins within th labour market. - To create a network of good practices as apprentices training is concerned by including the participation of all partners in the project and any other institutions who apply for being a part of it. The lenth of the project is thought for two years. Within it we will include three transnational meetings and three training activities. The working team is formed by the coordinator Asociación de Profesores Técnicos y de Enseñanza Secundaria de Automoción de Galicia and the following partners: IEK Kavalas (Greece) Ortakoy 80. Yil Mesleki Ve Teknik Anadolu Lisesi from Ankara- (Turkey) ISIS D'Aronco from Gemona del Friuli -( Italy) Centro Formativo Provinciale G. Zanardelli from Brescia - (Italy) Jelgavas Tehnikums from Jelgava - Latvia. 1.2.- Reserach on the following aspects of apprentices training: 17 fields of work are established to produce the good practices guide about apprentices training process. - Legislation - Companies and schools agreements. - Learning outcomes in the training process. - Pedagogical Support - working place - Remuneration or compensation - Social protection. - Working, health and safety conditions. - Regulatory framework - Companies support - tutors training - Flexible pathways and mobility - Career guidance and . - Career guidance and self-awareness. - Transparency - Quality assurance and apprentices monitoring - To ensure equal access - Support services to implement apprentices training systems - Self-awareness. The dissemination plan of the project includes social networks, employers, apprentices and social agents meetings, written media. By means of the European network of good practices on apprentices training we will establish the sustainability of the project. We will continuo working with this tool after the project finishes by incorporating any other new institutions which will strengthen its usefulness. We will also add new working fields on it such as the apprentices mobilities and the teaching staff mobilities within the UE.
Project aims: 1. Design an English language digital guide on good practices addressed to training institutions. A guide for formal and non-formal apprentices training that can be useful to learners and employers. It is a way to strengthen the link between teaching and learning by doing. In 17 chapters the aim is to provide the information to focus training not in posts requiring the lowest skills but to offer these apprentices a way to excellence, providing the key to quality training. This can enhance active citizenship and social inclusion in the labor market for people of very different backgrounds. 2. Design a good practices online network focused on apprentices learning by including employers, training institutions, project partners, etc. Along the 2 years of project the idea was to complete these two tasks with the support of three training events, and three transnational meetings.
The need of the project focuses on the school failure of our students which means our educational systems are not answering correctly to the needs of society. The EU proposed to increase up to a 50% training within companies. Part of the training must be done working, which motivates the apprentice and includes the employer in the training process creating a real option to employability. The absence of qualified staff, which schools are not able to provide to society, creating a situation that stops the spreading productive sectors and reduces competitive capacity. The transnationality of the project is an added value, that allowed us to get to know good practices about the proposed topics in the different countries of the EU, and in other institutions that has a relationship with the schools providing their own experiences. After years asking with other EU institutions, we have learnt how important it is to share experiences and being in contact with training professionals and employers from other countries.
