We applied to further develop our European activities offered to both staff and students to directly contribute to the Strategic Priorities of our College as defined in our Three Year Strategic Plan: the funding and support ensures that we support our learners and staff to address local labour market requirements, targeting skills gaps and developing enterprising solutions and resources to contribute to our economy and a cohesive society. Our European Development Plan (EDP) strongly reflects our College’s Strategic priorities, and aims ultimately to make a difference to our learners, improving their employability prospects in the European labour market by providing opportunities to enhance their skills and competences Our European programme aims to provide diverse opportunities across our curricula, carefully developed, delivered and evaluated to provide: • Improved competencies linked to vocational expertise based on new approaches & models of delivery gained from international learning experience • Increased knowledge of the benefits of international mobility activities for students – this is an invaluable tool in raising the profile of international training & work experience opportunities to students in their vocational areas
