This partnership project for school exchanges questions the current and future transformations of the labour market. Four French and German schools will participate in the project that will combine the mutual knowledge of innovative professional techniques with visits to companies and analyses of the evolution of the labour market. High school students from different origins will enrich the project by exchanging technical skills with their peers across the Rhine, or by analysing innovative practices discovered during company visits. An analysis of the evolution of the labour market linked to digitalisation will be produced. More than a hundred pupils aged between 15 and 20 will take part in the mobilities. They come from the vocational training, CAP 2nd year and Professional Baccalaureate, as well as from general and technological training. One of the aims of the project is to analyse and help developping the professional skills of the participants. During the mobility weeks, complex tasks are carried out with the students, including those who are not participating in the exchange. During the mobilities planned for the pupils of the vocational training, two travelling exhibitions are created: "Europe and me" in the first year, and "Perspectives on Europe" in the second. These creations will then serve as study and communication objects in the participating schools. To design and create these objects, pupils from different professional training fields will be involved, associating those taking part in the mobility as well as other groups from the host school. The opening of these exhibitions will also be an opportunity to increase the media coverage of the project. Another aim of the project is to examine the impacts of the industry of the future, from a technical, from an economical as well as from a labour market perspective. It will answer questions such as "What will be the impact of digitalisation on the labour market?" or "How are companies preparing themselves for the industry of the future?". Reflections will be conducted on the consequences of digitalisation on the organisation and production in companies, and the evolution of recruitment profiles. The eTwinning platform will be used for the preparation, implementation or follow-up of the project. All participants will contribute to it. High school students will document various aspects of the industry of the future through radio programmes, posters, press articles, which they will post on the eTwinning blog.
This partnership project for school exchanges questions the current and future transformations of the labour market. Four French and German schools take part in the project that combine mutual knowledge of innovative vocational techniques with visits to companies and analyses of changes in the labour market. High school students from different origins have enriched the project by exchanging working techniques with their counterparts from across the Rhine, or by analysing innovative practices discovered during company visits. Interviews were used to produce an analysis of how the labour market is changing as a result of digitalisation. More than a hundred students aged between 15 and 20 took part in the exchanges. They came from the vocational training, CAP 2nd year and Professional Baccalaureate, as well as from general and technological training. One of the aims of the project is to analyse and help developping the professional skills of the participants. During the mobility weeks, complex tasks were carried out with the pupils, including those not taking part in the exchange. During the mobilities planned for vocational students, works of art were created and presented in two travelling exhibitions: "Europe and Me" in the first year, and "European Perspectives" in the second. These creations serve as objects of study and communication in the participating schools. Pupils from different branches of vocational training were involved in designing and creating these objects, associating those taking part in the mobility as well as other groups from the host school. The exhibition openings were key moments in the dissemination and communication of the project. Another of the project's objectives is to examine the technical, economic and labour market impacts of the industry of the future, by answering questions such as "What impact will digitalisation have on the labour market?" and "How are companies preparing for the industry of the future? Discussions were also conducted on the consequences of digitisation on the organisation and production in companies, and the evolution of recruitment profiles. Lastly, a large number of events were organised in connection with the project in the partner schools, with or without the involvement of external partners, companies, the press, vocational campuses or between schools, all of which helped to disseminate the activities carried out, and communicate about the partnerships created and the support provided by the Erasmus+ programme.
