ERASMUS POLICY STATEMENT

Erasmus + programme experience of HEI Pérez Comendador has been very enriching and satisfactory. It has been developing and improving over the years. It begins in 2015 with high school education projects and over the years, we have been able to see how it permeates families and the people in the area. In 2020, we decided to make the leap to VET and basic training school students, that are currently developing VET programmes abroad. ECHE will allow us to take another step forward in the internationalization and modernization of our HEI and send students of the higher grade of our 4 vocational training.

VET is changing and the whole educational model and that is why we intend to educate in a different way and in the HEI is planned that the next school year begins to teach within two bilingualism sections in VET and is planned in 2022/2023 to implant two new Dual VET (currently we already have in our HEI implanted one Dual VET) The Erasmus+ programme will help us to change the learning model, to modernise our HEI and to give more opportunities to our pupils and teachers.

The greater degree of involvement of the center has made, that we have created in our center a management team of the Erasmus + programs formed by the Director, Erasmus Coordinator, Head of Studies, Secretary and Coordinator of Erasmus School Education. In addition to a manager in each of the different professional families (usually the coordinators of the FCT).

 

The Erasmus + grant means an enormous opportunity for our students to leave the town and to know larger and more efficient companies apart from new cultures and languages that they will be in touch with. The depopulation of the area is one of the facts that we must take into consideration, therefore, this enriching alternative of working abroad which is offered to our students will have an impact on their personal development and they will be able to face different working environments.

The main aim of our programme is that our students of the 4 high level of vocational training studies to do the internship abroad. The opportunity of taking part in this project will contribute to the empowerment of the students so they will be able to build up a brighter future in their careers fostering entrepreneur and modern ideals that may be adapted to new strategies and modernization of the economy in the area.

Currently we are working on trying to promote a new goal which would be the mobilisation of the staff, more concretely of the teachers. We are considering the idea of professional stays in companies as well as in educative centres, hence teachers wanting to take part in this experience would have also the opportunity of working and interacting with other people from different cultures. What is more, we are contemplating the idea of hosting students and teachers from other countries, so it would be an interesting exchange which would benefit not only the students, but also the teachers.

ECHE allows our High School to continue our internationalization strategy and bring it to all levels of our HEI. Through the ECHE we want to evolve in our internationalization strategy by integrating all levels.

Our HEI seeks to internationalize and modernize the higher vocational training, giving students more possibilities within the European framework. In order to develop properly, we have a team to systematize the monitoring, dissemination and validation of Erasmus programme results, led by the Erasmus+ coordinator and with those responsible for each Erasmus programme, the Director, Secretariat and Head of Studies.

Our Education System is based on 6 pillars : "Multilingual Program", "Learning Methodology" "Inclusion and Diversity", "Environmental Responsibility", "European Dimension of Education" and "Digital Transformation"

Some of the goals we are establishing are:

1)     Rise the number of possibilities for our students to do the internships at international companies

2)     To foster the equality among the students

3)     To improve the skills and competences of the teachers. To promote the exchange of people in Europe and the internationalization

4)     To improve the level of foreign languages in the centre

5)     To increase a European feeling in the centre

6)     To share and motivate the European identity and its diversity.

7)     To foment that all the credits and degrees are recognised at European level

8)     To announce the environmental policies of the HEI

9)     To improve the use of technologies as a tool
