Project

Perfect Match – Tools for High Quality Mobility Experiences (2012-2014)

 

  • An EU-funded (Leonardo da Vinci-program) Transfer of Innovation-project

  • Partners from Finland (Ikaalinen College of Crafts and Design; coordinator), France, Spain, Hungary and Italy, also including umbrella organisations of SMEs from these countries

    • when the right trainee is matched with the right company, all parties (the SME, the trainee, the sending organisation) gain the maximum benefits and the vocational education develops

    • intermediary organisations operating in the target country are needed to arrange high quality mobility experiences


  • The target groups of the project include SMEs, trainees and intermediary organisations (for instance: vocational training schools, chambers…) operating between the trainee and the SME


OBJECTIVES


  • To develop tools for intermediary organisations that enable them to match the right trainees with the right SMEs


  • To create co-operation structures between the different actors

  • To encourage SMEs to host trainees from abroad


  • To raise awareness of the benefits of mobility in Europe
