Background

We considered that the professional development of students and VET staff is a priority for our school with the aim of eliminating some of the existing dysfunctionalities at the level of VET classes. + The low degree of insertion on the labor market of VET graduates, the lack of a well-equipped workshop and the high school dropout rate, the unfavourable image of professional education in the community can be improved with the participation of students and teachers in VET mobility projects. The participation of students and teachers in training internships in foreign companies can constitute the premise for an international opening of our school and the motivation of European projects for students should be included as an integral part of the school program. The possibility for students and teachers to come into contact with a real European work environment, training them in skills, knowledge and abilities specific to the job, but also European concepts such as democracy, justice, citizenship, civil rights.
