Erasmus+ KA1

Within the Erasmus+ KA1 project, students and staff from the Technical Secondary School Centre Maribor, the Biotechnical School Maribor, the Secondary School of Wood Processing and Forestry Maribor, the Secondary School of Construction and Grammar School Maribor, and the Secondary School of Marketing and Design Maribor take part.

Mobilities are an integral part of the regular educational process, which is why the competences that students acquire abroad are officially recognised at school through the Europass tool. Participation in mobility enables students to upgrade their professional knowledge and to develop key skills such as interpersonal, intercultural and language competences, independence, entrepreneurship, problem-solving abilities and an understanding of the modern working environment. Such competences are today part of the expectations of most employers.

The aim of the project is to offer students an upgrade of their professional knowledge and the opportunity to gain new work experience in an international environment, to contribute to their independence, maturity and self-confidence, to give them insight into life and work in other EU countries, to promote awareness of diversity and encourage respect among cultures, to improve their foreign language skills and to strengthen the exchange of knowledge and good practices between schools and the world of work.
