Mobility in Europe within the framework of work-study programmes is now a major challenge, both educational and economic, as well as strategic. It is therefore a powerful lever for the development of cross-disciplinary skills, in particular: •autonomy, adaptability and intercultural management; •communication in a multilingual professional context; •understanding of European working environments. Work-study mobility enables work-study students to: •compare their knowledge with foreign professional practices; •develop a culture of quality and innovation; •and acquire a European perspective on professions. It promotes: •student mobility within the single market; •networking and the transfer of know-how between European companies; •and innovation in vocational training (learning about European technologies, processes and regulations). We wanted to mobilise the academic community, and more specifically teachers and students in the field of art history, in order to develop this (dual) system coupled with European mobility.
The aim of the project is to support the development of work-study programmes (dual education) combined with mobility in Europe in higher education.
