Description
The project, developed by the “Mihail Sturdza” Technical College (CTMS) from Iasi, in partnership with SC Chambon SRL, sets the main goal of improving internships for the qualifications of Mechanics, with a focus on acquiring the proper professional skills required by the job market, which would increase the chances of our graduates to find employment. The project aims to establish a stronger connection with the partner company and offer the best selection of internship opportunities for students, to provide the most suitable professional development for teachers and tutors, as well as to create an appropriate evaluation system for the students’ performance during workplace training. The project involves a 5 day visit to the Kvadraturen School Centre from Kristiansand, Norway. The group will be made up of the head master of CTMS, the coordinator of the technical staff from CTMS, 5 experienced VET Mechanical teachers, an English teacher. The partner company will also be represented by 2 officials that are in charge of our students’ internships. The local activities will involve 14 teachers of technical subject areas, 86 9th grade students and 56 10th grade students from professional education. There will also be 12 economic partners involved, as well as 10 VET schools from Iasi County. The project will include activities aimed at assembling the Local Development Curriculum for the school year 2019-2020. A “Guide for students’ assessment during internships” will also be developed, to ensure a unitary tool for evaluating the results during workplace training. Through the consolidation of partnerships with economic agents and the professional development of teachers and tutors accomplished through this project, as well as improved means of learning for speciality modules attained from other projects the school has taken part in, the school can achieve a better correlation between the competencies acquired by graduates and the actual requirements of the job market.
