Objectives

Our goal is always to remain faithful to and progress towards our accreditation objectives and the current Erasmus Charter. 1) Sustain our commitment to the institution's internationalization: - Logical and close alignment with the curricula and content of the hospitality training standards, which offer learners the principles of internationalization and interculturality as guiding principles: a logical continuation with student exchange programs, modern language studies, visits by foreign teachers, and partnerships with private companies. - Individual student mobility reinforces this international outlook and serves as a lever for the quality and modernization of the programs taught at the high school. - the school's objectives (school project attached), - school dropout prevention, - the importance of the project approach in learning, - the role of interculturality in the new high school curricula, - consideration of student diversity (social, human, geographical), - the school's attractiveness and influence. 2) Promote learners' professional integration through international mobility: raise students' awareness of: - the promotion of international employability: one of the strengths of the Hospitality/Restaurant industry, - the reality of the job market, - knowledge of the right employability skills, - the need for transferable skills useful for job searches, - compliance with educational policy guidelines, - learners' individual strategy: targeting the right skills in relation to the job market, - companies' ability to recognize the skills generated by the education system, - for high schools: the value of creating and maintaining a network of partners, - the richness of communication and content exchanges between countries, between institutions, and companies, - communication through digital tools, - changes in the professional world and relationships between professionals who do not speak the same language and from different cultures, which await learners after school, - the transformation of learners' knowledge through other academic and/or professional and human situations. 3) Encourage and implement innovative practices through exchanges and meetings: - the need to support the institution's objectives, - the need to support the institution's internationalization strategy, - the growth of international mobility, - the modernization of teaching, - the need to support internships, exchanges, school trips, and the hosting and sending of learners, - lifelong learning for teachers and staff who participate in internship mobility programs and support students during these periods, - compliance with the guidelines and directives of the new Erasmus program, - the place of interculturality in the new high school curricula, - compliance with educational policy directions, - the new guidelines of the Erasmus program, - the professionalization and promotion of the teaching profession. Individual internship mobility programs are a long-standing activity within the institution. Some students in the BTS MHR (Hotel and Restaurant Management) and BTS Tourism programs often choose to complete their internship abroad, reflecting a project they had already considered two or three years earlier, and a very important objective of their training for the future of their career. By implementing this project, we were also able to open, thanks to a young instructor, a new partnership with a Spanish company, where he himself had been an intern during his training. This new partnership is attractive because this company has the capacity and scope to host three students and train them in accommodation. This company fully aligns with our objectives and the expected added value of the internship. A high-quality relationship was established between the instructor (a former intern) and the company. The students were able to travel there by train or car, which also allows us to align with the agency's priorities. We have a new partner in Turin, Italy: a gourmet restaurant that welcomed a student in "restaurant service." He has already indicated his willingness to welcome a new student next year. The success of this new partnership is the result of the in-depth work carried out throughout the year by the staff (research, networking, discussions, and administrative procedures). We supported a student who went on a cooking internship in Ireland. The diversity of activities was well respected.
