JobRoute - journey to job

Description

"Within the Erasmus+ program we have successfully implemented the project ""Job Route - journey to job"" in the school year 2015/2016. The name of the project already says that we have directed the students to the path leading to work and employment, and the employees have been enabled to upgrade their careers. This was the sixteenth year in a row, when School centre Nova Gorica (SCNG) organized the mobility of students, who passed the internships abroad.Partnership in the project was numerical; there were 12 different partner organizations. The specificity of the project was the division into activities A1, A2 and A3. In the first part of the activity (A1) we cooperated with six secondary schools and two intermediary organizations. School organizations have numerous vocational education programs and the intermediary organization have many years of experiences in organizing mobilities with network of companies, where students had practical training abroad. In only two cases, students did the practical training in a school workshops, and all others in companies and other working organizations (estate, retirement home, hospital) or at craftsmen. In the second part of the activity (A2), we implemented 6 different flows of staff, who went abroad with the aim of job shadowing. There were three individuals, two couples and one group of seven people, who participated at job shadowing. In total, 43 mobilities of students, 9 mobilities of accompanying persons and 12 participants of job shadowing were planned in an application form. We organized 12 mobilities more than planned. There were 49 mobilities of students, 13 mobilities of accompanying persons and 14 participans of job shadowing for staff. In total, 64 mobilities were planned, and 76 were implemented. The main purpose of the project was to provide 64 people with an international experience in a foreign school or work organization (company). In this way, we have expanded the process of internationalization at the School centre Nova Gorica. Students have passed practical training abroad in different vocational education fields, from 2-4 weeks. In the first week of mobility each group was accompanied by a teacher, except in one case, there were two teachers. In the activities A1, we enabled the students to acquire new professionally skills and competences, as well as other skills, in the areas of vocational and education programs such as computer science, electrical engineering, woodworking, automotive service, mechanical engineering, mechatronics, logistics, healthcare, gastronomy, agriculture, enviromentalists, trade and commerce, economics and have recognized mobility as part of the learning process. In the activity A3 were 11 groups of students accompanied by 13 accompanying persons who also acquired new professional knowledge from the areas they teach.In the activity A2, 14 persons were at job shadowing in various workplaces in six school organizations abroad.Other goals of the project were: students realized the school system of the host country, upgraded theoretical knowledge and applied it in practice, learned the characteristics of the work process and the labor market abroad, developed linguistic (practical communication) and intercultural competences (customs of the foreign cultural environment) and actively spend free time (learning about the cultural and historical characteristics of the host country).We wanted to help accelerate the cooperation between vocational education institutions in Slovenia and partner organizations in a project Job Route. The part of ŠCNG is also Intercompany training centre, which includes the Erasmus + projects, cooperates with various organizations in Slovenia (Vocational Education Center, Institute for Education, Ministry of education, Employment Service, Chamber of Crafts, Enterprises and Craftsmen) and foreign related organizations.Experiences in organizing projects of international mobilities teach us that it is best to work with educational organizations abroad that help us organize work placements in school workshops, work organizations, companies and craftsmen. We work with the majority of partner organizations in a way of reciprocity, which means that students from partner schools come to Slovenia for practical training. In this way, our students can acquire quality knowledge, which is result of good partnerships. Through the implementation of the project, we wanted to improve the skills of professional flexibility for our staff and to accelerate the process of internationalization at the Nova Gorica School Center, which we believe we have succeeded."
