"Initially, the project contemplated 6 mobilities to the tourism offices of Spain Abroad (Turespaña) of 182 days long each, in Sweden, Finland and Norway. Five publics calls were made to select the candidates. We had students with good profile and very motivated. Unfortunately, the amount of the scholarship that corresponded to the Project call of 2016 was very low and demanded an important economic contribution from our students, adults and unemployed people. For this reason, most of the candidates withdrew. We only managed to send a student of the professional certificate ""international trade management"" to Sweden. In order to fulfil the commitments acquired in this project, we tried to find ""cheaper"" destinations, in particular to Eastern Europe, or new host companies that provide accommodation for the participants, opening even the scope to other profiles and therefore to other professional certificates. The result was satisfactory, taking into account the economic condition we had. We sent a student of the profesional certificate ""Management Assistant"" to Bristol (United Kingdom) for 6 months to Education First EF and another student of the same certificate to the company VivaCork located in Cork (Ireland). EF provided the participant with free accommodation, initially with a family and later in a residence, as well as full board (breakfast, lunch and dinner). They ran with the travel expenses from the airport to the place where she was going to stay. In addition, they ran with transportation costs from her accommodation to the workplace. As for Vivacork, it is a company that is responsible for seeking accommodation for foreign students that follow English courses, so we ask the company to provide accommodation for the student at the best possible price. If the price they charge for a room without bathroom in a 5 room apartment is €680, our studente had only to pay €300. Both companies want to continue collaborating with us as host partners, which is the best proof of their satisfaction."

CRN MOVE 2016 project is an initiative of the Training General Directorate that is the government agency responsible for Vocational Training for Employment in the Community of Madrid. It depends on the Department of Economy, Employment and Finance, and inside its organizational structure is the Training Centres for Employment Network , whose mission is to improve the professional skills of workers in the Community of Madrid. To this aim, these centers are specialized by sectors and areas of vocational training such as information technology and communications ITC , administration, insurance and finance , construction , aerospace , refrigeration and air conditioning , electricity, electronics - and they directly manage training courses for unemployed and workers training more than 7,000 students each year.These training centers also contribute to the improvement of the national system of vocational training through research, certification and upgrading of profiles and all of them are National Reference Centres for Vocational Training (CRN) in their respective sectors .This project shares the objectives of the Strategic Framework for Education and Training 2020 Enhancing creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship , through partnerships between industry and educational institutions. This collaboration is the key point of this project and it means the to resume the uninterrupted participation of Training Centres for Employment Network of the Community of Madrid in European projects and initiatives for Vocational Training in the last years.Specifically, this project consisted in one hand on sendending 20 students - all of them young unemployed- that had followed their training in various professional certificates of Level 2 and 3 and in the other to send 2 technicians from the training Centres (TC) in Technologies of Refrigeration and HVAC TC Moratalaz and Building and bring a teacher from our irish partner to teach during a week in one of our centers . This is a project that brings together the different mobility flows from the 4 sending centers , with 6 host partners - companies and training centers,as non commercial partners- that has already worked together before , and 3 different types of activity: vet learners in companies, and staff mobility for training and to teach. For the first time this project has included two long term mobilities of apprentices to France in the frame of the project European Apprenticeship Ambassadors - Network of vocational training centres for the recognition of European apprenticeships where the DG de Formación participates as founder partner from 2016.Regarding objectives and reached outcomes: in the case of students we know from previous experiences in mobility projects that practices in transnational companies TNCs exponentially increases the employability of those students and in this project the percentage of student that have got an employment is of 85% included 5 participants (20% of the total) that have remainded on contract in the practice companies abroad . In the case of staff mobility outcomes: these arte the information exchange about professional qualifications with the aim of establishing MOUs . These results will give sustainability to the project at the national level because as CRN these results and products will be disseminated among the Spanish VET agents and could be developed in future Erasmus + calls for proposals.

The CRN MOVE 2018 project of the Directorate General for Training experienced a drastic reduction in its funding on its approval phase, That meant a radical change not only of the expected number of mobility flows but also in their duration, from the 36 student mobility and 8 of personnel requested, only 8 students and 2 staff were approved and the average duration of the flows that in the proposal had an average duration above four months, was reduced to 3 months. All this situation made us to rethink the whole project that finally has been very successful but on a more smaller scale. This project has shared the objectives of the Strategic Framework for Education and Training 2020 to increase creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, through partnerships between the business world and training institutions. This collaboration is the key point of this project and implies the continuity of the participation of the Own Training Centers of the Community of Madrid in European Vocational Training projects and initiatives. These training centers also contribute to the improvement of the national vocational training system through research, certification and constant updating as all of them are CRN National Reference Centers for Vocational Training in their respective sectors.Specifically, this project has finally consisted on the sending of 8 students - all of them unemployed people - who have followed vocational training in different certificates of professionalism and 2 personnel from 3 of the 5 Training Centers: CRN in Building and Civil Works, CRN in Administration, Insurance and Finance of Fuencarral and the CRN in Information Technology and Communications. The project has brought together the different flows of these 3 sending centers, with 8 host partners - companies, training centers and tourism offices abroad with all of them we have already worked previously, and an portuguese NGO has joined this year- and 2 types of activity: mobility of students for practices in companies and mobility of personnel for training.The project has been fully developed and in terms of the objectives and expected results, in the case of students beyond the high satisfaction they have shown with the practices, shared by the tutors of the host partners, we know from previous experiences in mobility projects that practices in transnational companies exponentially increase their employability. In the case of staff mobility, the results achieved have been the exchange of information on specific professional qualifications with a view to establishing memoranda of understanding regarding professional qualifications in the construction sector in Ireland and knowledge of the construction sector in this country where it is planned to work on future mobility projects. These results will give sustainability to the project at the national level since as National Reference Training Centres (CRN) these results and products will be disseminated and can be developed in future Erasmus + calls.

The CRN MOVE 2017 project is an initiative of the General Directorate of Training which is the public body responsible for Vocational Training for Employment in the Community of Madrid.
