Objectives

Through the implementation of the Project, the partners identified the following objectives: - to activate a virtuous process of exchange of experiences and good practices between the two partners; - to identify and analyse good examples of training initiatives aimed at promoting the mentality, skills and entrepreneurial attitudes of school IVET students; - to design innovative training initiatives that promote students' entrepreneurship also through the use of new digital technologies like augmented and virtual reality; - to strengthen the quality of their work and its capacity to design initiatives for initial vocational education that meet the needs of enterprises and students; - improve their ability to work transnationally, within a European programme such as Erasmus+.

Background

The partners presented the project with the objective of designing new training initiatives for school vocational education and training (IVET) students aimed at fostering the development of their entrepreneurial skills and attitudes. The project was coherently embedded in the activities of the two partners ISI and ITKAM, who work on a daily basis in the realisation of training initiatives for secondary school students to bring boys and girls closer to the world of business. The skills that underpin entrepreneurial ability, such as creativity, team working, the ability to take the initiative and mobilise resources, are considered fundamental assets for people to be placed in a business context. Therefore, the partners implemented the project to improve their ability to respond to the requests of the main stakeholders, by offering companies and students training initiatives able to meet their mutual expectations concerning the professional competences needed for a proper insertion in the labour market.
