Innovation and Internationalisation of Vocational Training

Description

"IESPHL is located in an urban population of medium / low socioeconomic status. The main objective of IESPHL has always been to provide its students with skills that bring them closer to the labor market. That is why it is necessary that both the IESPHL and its teaching staff be updated regarding the cultural and social situation. Therefore, the most important objectives are: to improve the competences of students to increase their employability, to guarantee equal opportunities between our students and those of families with a better socioeconomic status, to promote the professional development of teachers to improve the quality of teaching , promote multilingualism and multiculturalism, enhance the internationalisation of IESPHL and promote cooperation between the training world and the labour world. For all this the IESPHL wanted to participate again in a European project.The project granted the mobility of vocational students to carry out internships in companies: 12 students of Initial Vocational Training (FPGM) and 6 of Basic Vocational Training (FPB), divided into two academic years. For FPGM students 6 mobilities were granted to Italy and another 6 to Ireland, all for 79 days. For this activity, an accompanying teacher would go during the first and last week in each year of the project in order to accompany the students during the travel, guarantee the quality of the services and the fulfillment of the training programme, and help in any difficulty that could arise. Those from FPB were all in Italy for 23 days, and were accompanied throughout the stay by two accompanying teachers, one each year.Finally, the mobilities that have been made have not adjusted to what was granted, but have varied with respect to the original project. The mobilities used have all been FPGM, varying the days of mobility between 64 and 79, depending on the availability and flight price. No FPB students have been sent and consequently, no accompanying teacher with them. This is because we have used the remaining mobilities of the KA102-2016 project for the FPB mobilities, and therefore, in this project we have used only the mobility grants for FPGM.On the other hand, the planned destinations were Italy and Ireland. However, it has been extended to Germany for four of the students. That is, 4 students have finally gone to Italy, 4 to Ireland and 4 to Germany. This decision was taken at the IESPHL boosted by the interest of the participants in this country as they study the specialty ""Microinformatics Systems and Networks"" and Germany is a very advanced country in terms of new technologies.As there were under-age students in the FPGM mobilities, one in Italy and one in Ireland, it was decided that a teacher would be in monitoring in each of the destinations to ensure the quality of services and the fulfillment of the training programme. Therefore, the two mobilities of accompanying teachers have been spent for one week each.In both years the mobilities began in the month of March. Regarding the profile of the participants: 2 students belong to the specialty of ""Conduction of Physical Activities in the Natural Environment"", 5 are of ""Microcomputer Systems and Networks"", 1 of ""Electrical and Automatic Installations"", 3 of ""Bodywork"" and 1 of ""Heat production installations"".These students had already completed the theoretical training so they went abroad to do internships that would be recognised by the module of Training at work centres (FCT). This has given students the possibility of knowing a different professional, linguistic and cultural context.On the other hand, the project granted, and 3 mobilities have been used for teachers in job-shadowing activities in Finland, all of them lasting 7 days. The experience has allowed our center to exchange experiences with this country, which is an example of good practices at the educational level. Teachers have learned about the vocational training system in Finland: characteristics, organisation, training programmes, methodology, use of ICTs, business relationships, evaluation systems, etc. and they have been able to deepen their knowledge and professional skills, in addition to improving their language skills."
