  2. The OBJECTIVES of our Project First meeting in Valencia (Spain) 24th & 25th of November 2017

  3. The OBJECTIVES of our Project are: • • Analysis of the protocols and procedures performed by companies and educative centres to develop company training activities (WEPs) in VET and Dual VET system Institutions. • • Gain knowledge and value the effort and sacrifice fulfilled by companies, educative centres, and VET institutions. • • Compare the role of Education Inspectors, tutors and instructors throughout the WEPs in companies of each country. • • Analyse other social agents and/or public administrations’ intervention (e.g. trade unions, Commerce Chambers, etc.) in these training activities. • • Compare the evaluation and certification systems WEPs count with in the participating countries.

  4. The OBJECTIVES of our Project are: • • Analyse the different situations surrounding students with Special Educational Needs during their training activities’ performance. • • Identification of material, human, and economic resources and the changes carried out by the scholastic organisation in order to enhance these training activities and promote their educative and employment purposes. • • Diagnose the positive aspects and those which can be improved within WEPs through companies and instructors’ perspective. • • Analyse the current situation of the labour market in each country, as well as the professional orientation and youth unemployment.

  5. The OBJECTIVES of our Project are: • • Gain knowledge of similarities and differences of each country regarding training activities in companies to detect the strong points and evaluate the possibility of generalising them. • • Value European citizenship and the tolerance WEPs have in the participating countries. • • Incentivise ICT competences through these training activities. • • Appreciate how through the fulfilment of WEPs outside one’s own country, the student improves his or her linguistic competences as well as his or her knowledge about the different European cultures. • • Improve the training activities’ management, monitoring, and evaluation quality to increase the social-employment insertion of students.
