Background

The project fulfilled the requirement of providing our students and teachers with professional practice and development in European Union member states. In addition, the mobilities included in the project enabled the participants to familiarize themselves with the work standards, procedures, advanced techniques, and trends in the tourism industry of highly developed touristic country. This exposure equipped them with valuable knowledge and standards that they can share with their colleagues and students in our school and other schools in Macedonia that teach this vocation.
