MOB4APP project aims at enhancing the professional development of VET professionals in order to improve, manage and support cross-country mobility for apprentices in Europe. The project will provide VET professional, companies and VET learners with specific knowledge, skills and competences necessary to promote, guide, assist, facilitate and assess effective mobility experiences abroad for apprentices. The trained VET Professionals will be able to design, develop and deliver quality transnational work based learning arrangements, recognising and overcoming some of the most common problems associated with practical implementation of long-term mobility for apprentices in Europe.The MOB4APP project aims at strengthening the role of VET professionals as link between apprentices and companies by developing a training path for VET professionals and supporting materials for companies and apprentices.The project will address VET teachers and trainers as primary target group while VET students, trainees and companies as final beneficiaries. Most official EC documents and recommendations confirm the existence of a mismatch between the benefits of long-term mobility for apprentices and the quality of the professional competences needed to implement this practice in an effective way (EC, Mobility of Apprentices in Europe, Report, 2019).In this regard, the project will produce the following tangible results: - IO1 MOB4APP Training Programme for VET professionals- IO2 MOB4APP Toolkit for companies and apprentices- IO3 MOB4APP MOOCThe partnership includes seven partners (Co.Meta, CISL Marche, Berlink, Pro Work, the Belgian-Italian Chamber of Commerce, The Pedagogical University of Krakow and the Spain Chamber of Commerce) from 6 different countries (Italy, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Belgium and Spain).The MOB4APP project is seeking to generate particular impact for VET Professionals (primary target group), VET students/trainees and companies (final beneficiaries) through the creation of original materials, activities and training modules to support, manage and implement long-term mobility for apprentices in Europe.The project activities aim at providing VET professionals with specific knowledge, skills and competences necessary to promote, facilitate and assess effective cross-country mobility for apprentices. The key strategy to impact on end users is to combine the training of trainers, with activities to raise the consciousness of companies, trainees and Policy Makers on the potential of mobility experiences abroad for apprentices in terms of acquisition of competences, employability, competitiveness and innovation.The second strategy is focused on the provision of innovative pedagogic approaches, tools and materials, producing resources, which can be very easily incorporated within existing training practices.
