"The ""ERASMUS + ARTISANAT PAYS DE LA LOIRE"" project is supported by the Chamber of trades and Craftsmanship of Pays de la Loire (CMA PDL). It concerns four sending organizations : the CMA PDL, the CFA of the hairdressing and aesthetics of Loire-Atlantique, the CFA of the hairdressing of Sarthe and the CFA Martello of the trades of electricity of Loire-Atlantique. The CMA PDL manages 5 Apprentice Training Centers (CFA), spread over 6 sites in Pays de la Loire : Ste-Luce-sur-Loire (44), St-Nazaire (44), Angers (49), Laval (53), Le Mans (72) and La Roche-sur-Yon (85). The project was mainly consisted in organizing mobility for apprentices in craft trades and for young graduates coming out of one of the CFA of the consortium. Total : - 96 apprentices went on mobility of Group on short stays of two weeks, - 77 young graduates, vocational trainees, benefited from individual mobility stays long post-learning of 6 months. During this period of mobility, young people have done an internship in a home business. Short stays have been supervised by 23 coaches, staff of the CFA.Short mobilities benefited apprentices aged from 17 to 23 years, 56% were boys. They were all in employment contract at the time of mobility and registered, in one of the CFA of the consortium, in level 5 training (CAP, MC) or 4 (Bac Pro, BP). Projects concerned trades mouth (bakery, pastry, chocolate), catering, personal care (hair and aesthetics), auto mechanic, electricity and art trades.Long mobility in company (1 to 6 months) have benefited young (aged 19 to 29 years) graduates, 44% were women. Projects concerned trades mouth (bakery, pastry, chocolate), personal care (hair and aesthetics), art trades, tertiary BTS and auto mechanics. Most had already left short mobility or staying discovery during their training. This type of mobility has involved mainly young holders of a diploma level 4 or 5. Mobility (short and long) allowed apprentices and young graduates to enhance their professional and linguistic, technical skills to encourage their personal development, to impove their ability to employment for the students of the vocational training and to develop European citizenship. Some graduates plan even work abroad or in an international context. The mobility of staff concerned 4 projects (3 teachers and 1 referent mobility). These mobilities have allowed staff to experiment and develop new learning practices and teaching methods, share their knowledge and skills with others, learn from good practices observed abroad, gain relevant practical skills for their current job and their professional development, meet companies, masters of training and visit companies where youth were on probation.The strength of our project is to be made of a small group of sending partners with the same vocation : the training of apprentices in craft trades, on a limited territory. Our project ""ERASMUS + ARTISANAT PAYS DE LA LOIRE"" is based on the regional hub of mobility, carried by the CMA PDL. Energies have been Federated around a common regional project and in this way everyone was able to enjoy the experience and the network of partners from others. A few projects have been implemented in common : a group stay in Flensburg under our twinning with the German CMA. Networking helped encourage the greatest number of youth mobility. The scope of our partner Destination Europe has expanded to 5 CFA of the CMA PDL, which train for careers in food and this allowed us to send 50 young interns graduates of professional training in internship in an United Kingdom company. Impact sought by the consortium was the valuation of the learning sector in the craft trades. The goal was to make mobility accessible to all, and to attract young people with high potential. The CMA PDL wants to register as a major player in European mobility in the countries of Pays de la Loire."

"The project "" ERASMUS + CRAFT PAYS DE LA LOIRE "" is supported by the Regional Chamber of Trades and Crafts Pays de la Loire. It relates to four organizations of sending which are the R Regional Chamber of Trades and Crafts, CFA of the Hairstyle and the Esthetics of Loire-Atlantique, CFA of the Hairstyle of the Sarthe and BTP CFA Loire Region. This last having joined the project in… CMAR PDL, via its Regional University of the Trades and Crafts (URMA) manages five Training centres of Apprentices (CFA) interprofessional, respectively at Nantes, Laval, Angers, Mans and the Roche-sur-Yon. The project consisted in mainly making leave of mobility of the apprentices the trades of the crafts and the graduates leaving CFA. During the period of mobility, on the whole 131 young people carried out a internship in a company of reception: - 76 apprentices left of mobility of group on short stays two weeks, - 55 graduates left of individual mobility on long stays 6 months. The short stays were framed by a total of 18 guides, staffs of CFA. The apprentices have in the whole between 17 and 20 years. They prepare diplomas of level V (CAPE, MC) or of level IV (Bac Pro, BP, BTM) in the trades of bakery, the pastry making-chocolate factory, the butcher's and pork butcher's shop, the hotel trade-restoration, the hairstyle and esthetics, the fleuristery, or the car. The young people who leave of individual mobility are titular of a diploma of level IV (Bac Pro, BP, BTM or of a BTS) of the trades of bakery, pastry making-chocolate factory, hotel trade-restoration, car, management and accounting. The objectives of mobility for the young people are of: - To reinforce their competences - To support the personal development - To improve the operating requirement - To develop the European citizenship the force of our project is to be made up of a small group of partners of sending having the same vocation, the training of the apprentices in artisanal trades, on a limited territory. Our project “ERASMUS+ CRAFTS Loire Region” is pressed on a regional platform of the mobility carried by the Regional Chamber of Trades and Crafts. Work in network must enable us in the medium term to develop even more the number of mobility of the young people, future craftsmen of tomorrow. The regional coordinator will bring a technical and administrative support to the departmental referents. The goal is to federate energies around the same project, so that each one benefits from the experiment and the network of partners from the others, and that in the medium term projects are carried out jointly. One of the impacts searched by our network is the valorization of the sector training in the trades of the crafts. We want on the one hand to make mobility accessible to all, but to also attract in our business handbooks of the young people at strong potential. The Regional Chamber of Trades and Crafts wants to be registered like an important actor of European mobility in the area Loire Region."

The values of the crafts are based on the excellence of the knowledge, its transmission and the passion of the job. That is why the apprenticeship, which stems from the same values is an answer to the needs for the sector in terms of human resources.European mobilities enable to optimize the training of the young, future business managers, but also the actors of the apprenticeship, but improve (construction bizarre) the European visibility of the Auvergne- Rhône Alpes territory which is enclosed too. The CRMA which represents trades of the Auvergne-Rhône Alpes Region, is answering to the call of projects “Erasmus+” regarding mobility grants in favour of apprentices holders of a V and IV level diploma, of trainers and companies training masters for all the Auvergne- Rhône Alpes area and in dialogue with all partners.The consortium constituted during the application process and composed of training centers, CMA and other partners has allowed the achievement of:- 50 grants for apprentices in the process of training of short duration- 17grants for guides (trainers in training center)- 6 grants for post graduated from 1 month to 8 months.- 6 grants for staff training abroad for à duration of 5 to 6 days,- 1 grant for managers for à duration of 5 daysIndeed, such an approach is supported by the members of its consortium and the Regional Council of Auvergne Rhône Alpes and APCMAAll the members of this group are eager to set up a unique and coherent action in favour of European mobility in the Auvergne Rhône Alpes area (for apprentices, trainers/training masters and young graduated).In this organization each member will have a part to play : The CRMA : Applies for mobility grants, manages the project (financially and administratively), conducts the regional platform, look for European partners, cofinancings, …The CFA (training centres) : heighten apprentices awareness and prepare people’s minds (families and companies), write and negociate educational contents with European partners, manage logistics, welcome partners, follow and assess apprentices course …The other partners like the Regional Council of Auvergne Rhône Alpes : set up visits of contact to find partners, share its expert evaluation of courses, specific educational contents, help in financing projects …There are several aims in this project - Increase the number of mobility grants beneficiaries ,- Improve the employability of the apprentices and the young graduates,- Acquire techniques and know how to make,- Increase their knowledge of a country language and culture,- Know the systems of training and educational methods or of management, in particular for trainers and/or masters of companies.As for the final results, they are also numerous and of different kinds : For the public beneficiaries as apprentices our post-graduated, the goal is to : - Follow their studies,- Improve the results of exams,- Integrate the European company of welcome as a salary,- Be quickly hired by the training company, As far as the sending companies are concerned the aim is to : - Develop the courses of mobility for their apprentices and for themselves, - Participate more actively in mobility projects of CFA (vocational training centers),- Accept longer mobilities for their apprentices.As for the CFA (vocational training center) : - Set up more mobility projects,- Attract more young people in their establishment.As for the CRMA (Chamber of trades Auvergne -Rhône Alpes) : - Lead and coordinate the project in its entirety by assuming its mutualization,- Welcome more partners in the regional platform and in particular the National Education Vocational Training Centre,Finally, when it comes to the territory, the purpose is to be recognized as an active and voluntarist territory regarding European mobility.Such a project that gathers all the partners dealing with apprenticeship will enable to highlight the sector of work study programs which make sure that 8 apprentices out of 10 will find a jobThe health crisis has a serious impact on the progress of the program and thus many mobility projects have not been able to achieve.

The values of Crafts are established on experiment of the knowledge, transmission and passion of the job. That is why apprenticeship, is an answer to the needs for the sector in terms of resources human beings.The European mobility allows to optimize the training of the young apprentices, also future leaders of companies, and actors of the learning. The European mobility allows to improve the European visibility of the territory from Auvergne which is enclosed.The CRMAA, which represents the sector of craft jobs at the regional level, decided to answer the call for projects « Erasmus ». This project represents Scholarships mobility for the young apprentices ( Level V and IV) and graduates, ( Level V,IV and III), for the trainers and the apprentice masters in a company for the whole territory from Auvergne and this in according with all the partners.The project allowed the realization of 68 scholarships of mobility.- 47 during the training period- 9 scholarships from 2months to 12 months abroad for post graduate- 11 scholarships for trainers and one attendant.It is, indeed, sustained in its step by interprofessional, buildingship and agricultural training centres of the 4 Auvergne departments, as well as the Regional Council of Auvergne and APCMA.The common will of all these partners is to set up an action in favour of a unique, coherent and not competitive on Auvergne area, European mobility (of apprentices, trainers/training masters and young graduated).The objectives of the project were reached :- Increase the number of beneficiaries of scholarships of mobility (30 departures a year before 2014),- Improve the employability of the apprentices and the young graduates,- Acquire techniques and knowledges,- Deepen the knowledge of a language, a culture, a country,- Adapt itself to different work environments,- Discover other systems of training, educational methods or management different for the trainers and masters of apprenticeship.The obtained results are satisfactory.- For beneficiaries, apprentices and post graduates they can :-improve their autonomy and self-confidence, - having reduced their fear of the unknown, many apprentices have never traveled abroad, - have enriched intellectually fasting by the discovery of a European territory and its inhabitants and develop his curiosity,.- Continues their studies,- Improve the results at the exam,- Integrate the host company as employee,- Have a better employability on the French labour market. For the Training Center :- Set up more numerous projects of mobility,- Improve Educational methods,-develop tools already used for mobility European and creation for the CFA of a database to reduce the preparation time for the next stays - communicate experiences to other apprentices to promote other projects - strengthening partnerships between CFA, companies and vocational at the European level, - federate the teaching around an innovative project team to strengthen links with apprentices and companies.For the CRMAA- Drive and coordinate the project in its entirety by accepting its mutualization,- Welcome more partners within the regional platform in particular the Training Centers of apprentices of the French National Education Recognize the territory as being an active, voluntarist territory regarding European mobility.The project of the consortium and its functioning made envious persons.Indeed, establishments of traditional trainings, (no apprenticeship), unfortunate candidates, for the call for projects of 2014 were widely inspired by our consortium for their candidacy) for the period 2015/2016.

"The project ""promote European mobility in handicraft "" was built in on Rhône -Alpes by a consortium composed of 6 members : 1 Coordinator ( Regional craft Chamber of Rhône -Alpes) and 5 sending partners: Drôme Ardèche Vocational Training Association – ADAFP, CCI Ardèche - André Fargier CFA - CFA AF, CECOF, craft Chamber of Rhône CMA69 and SEPR. Note that the world of Craft in Rhône-Alpes represents about 120,000 companies with fewer than 5 employees on average and exercising 500 activities around 4 sectors: construction, food, manufacturing, service. These companies train more than 10 000 apprentices per year. The consortium sending partners are key players for training in the craft of the Rhône-Alpes Region.The organization of 10 mobility projects (8 for apprentices and 2 for companies members of Chamber of handicrafts) was planned. This represented 61 scholarship : 28 apprentices ( stay: 2-3 weeks) preparing a Level IV or V for food trades , automotive, hairdressing and beauty , 5 trainers / staff ( stay: 2-5 days), 23 companies members and staff of the Chamber of Handicrafts ( stay 3 days) and 5 coaches ( stay: 2 days to 3 weeks). In terms of destination projects : 1 in Germany, 1 in the UK, 2 in Italy , 1 in Finland, 1 in Iceland, 2 in Spain, 1 in Belgium and 1 in Estonia.These various mobility projects were designed to provide training and / or exchanges of experiences, Specifically for apprentices : opening to another culture for young people, independence improvement , self-confidence and adaptation, learning new ways of working , developing career , expanding employment opportunities, understanding a foreign language .In terms of consortium management, CRMA has a role of administrative and partnership facilitator (setting up a partnership agreement formalizing roles).. Each partner in the consortium organizes formalization with his interlocutor (sending partners, hosting and / or individual beneficiaries) through specific conventions.Each consortium sending partner has prepared a work plan for his mobilities with six common activities (excluding the mobility activity itself).Activity 1 - Implementation or renewed partnership with host partners.. About 40 % of mobility consortium come from a renewal . For new mobility, contacts were made through the Rhône-Alpes platform for international mobility and ""exchanges"" between the consortium partners.Activity 2 - information to potential beneficiaries: through various tools, sending partners informed their apprentices or firms about the purpose of organized mobility and logistical aspects . Activity 3 - Selection of candidates based on the selection criterias. Activity 4 - : logistics mobility : under the terms of partnerships developed with host partner , the transportation, part management with the sending , administrative and social management was made by the sending partner, the section on finding hospitality businesses, finding accommodation , organization of socio-cultural program by the host partner. The part relating to the monitoring was a joint work between the two partners.Activity 5 - Preparation of applicants: the sending partner planned preparedness actions . The consortium has been working on a training content ""ante"" mobility and could test.Activity 6 - Dissemination: A majority of sending partners has planned specific dissemination activities. Actions under the consortium were also implemented.Apart from the impact on improving personal skills ( self-empowerment , improved self-image , confidence in his abilities ), the consortium expected that the projects for apprentices allow, in the short-term, participants to bring themselves a new structuration to contribute to the success of their degree course and in the medium / long term to ensure their employability. This impact was made by the beneficiaries were able to graduate and have had some job offers.For the coordinator of the consortium, the impact was mainly in terms of image and rooting with CFA and European partners to promote partnership activities for the training of craftsmen and apprentices ."
