On June 28, in Italy, was held the national workshop on the 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒛𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝑶𝑵𝑭𝑨𝑷 𝒏𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌 🌍

The event took place as part of the TOVET project which has among its objectives to support the development of an internationalization strategy at providers’ level, fostering the mobility of leaders, staff and VET learners, as well as the establishment of cooperation partnerships.

It’s been a moment of reflection to talk about the future of VET in Europe, deepening the issues and opportunities offered by the new Erasmus+ programme 🤩

The first part of the event included institutional interventions by external speakers:

❌❌Internationalisation of VET providers is now considered of great importance, since it allows to increase the reputation of the centre and gives students and staff the opportunity to get in touch with their peers from other countries to exchange ideas and practices with the result of improving the overall quality of the training offer❌❌

Here are the main steps to develop an international strategy:
✅ Find partners in your home country and abroad
✅ Map your existing internationalization activities using the method of storytelling
✅ Understand the core skills - Staff professional development
✅ Examine the mission and values.
✅ Formulate the vision and set strategic goals
✅Decide on an action plan: define the operational goals, activities, procedures and resources for the agreed actions including their indicators

👉The participants had also the occasion to see a study case, that of Vamia, a multidisciplinary vocational education organization in Finland.

Have you never heard of open badges? 🧐

👉Open Badges make it possible to make skills and competences more visible and comparable in the European labor market. Technology offers education professionals the opportunity to break down the barriers that exist between different forms of learning: formal, informal and non-formal. With the badges it is possible to extend the recognition of learning outside the formal school environment to all aspects of the student's life.

The first day is over!
