Thanks to such experiences and aware of what is really at stake for beneficiaries, in terms of professional increase in value and education to European citizenship, our ongoing projects between 2015 and 2020 allowed us to offer mobility experiences to students from every vocational training speciality taught in our school. Having implemented mobilites to Poland for Commerce students and to the UK and Italy for Hospitality students for years, we have, indeed, initiated a cooperation with a Spanish school and placed Administration students in various companies in Valencia, since 2015; as it has been the case in England, then Ireland - in cooperation with an intermediary organisation - for Healthcare and Hospitality students. The evolving nature of our project led to develop a partnership with a Croatian catering school, in the meantime, allowing student work placements in our respective countries, abiding by the principle of reciprocity of our partnerships.
Our proposition is part of a multiple objective strategy: it intends to sustain tested partnerships inducing a positioning related to a quality approach - in terms of collaborative work on the design and implementation of the project - as well as it aims for a programme development intended to diversify beneficiaries and provide a more accurate response to their respective needs, perspective favoured by ongoing cooperation with additional partners. Our commitment in European opening approach - since 2008 - indeed led to develop ongoing partnerships with Polish, Spanish and Croatian schools, as well as collaborations with intermediary organisations in English speaking countries, within Erasmus+ programme. The collaboration we intend to intensify with our European partners is part and parcel of that context. As a matter of fact, we wish to capitalize on experience debreifing in order to define common strategies and work tools from which institutions, as well as participants, might take advantage, in a spirit of continuity including a clearly upgradable nature of exchanges, in keeping with lifelong learning prospects.
