On May 8 in Bologna📍, at the headquarters of the Emilia Romagna Region, #IFOA organized a study visit inviting senior officials of the Albanian Agency for Vocational Training and Qualifications, within the framework of the Erasmus+ project #MoMaVET. The purpose of the meeting was to share the Region’s good practice on student mobility programs and present the opportunities provided by European funds. The topics of comparison and discussion were different: the key action of the Erasmus+ program, the strategies for the internationalization of education and vocational training (financed by European funds) and governance issues. A profitable comparison full of hints for all participants❗ Special thanks from #IFOA: - to the Region #EmiliaRomagna for the support and hospitality; - to ART-ER Attrattività Ricerca Territorio and to Agjencia Kombëtare e Arsimit, Formimit Profesional dhe Kualifikimeve for the profitable participation. The purpose of the MoMaVET project❓ It aims to increase the capacity of governance and Albanian schools of vocational education and training, to develop and implement internationalization strategies, through mobility for learning and finally to prepare the countries involved (Italy and Greece) to host students from Albania in the future.
For the MoMaVET European project, IFOA has been in 📍 Albania (in Tirana and Durres) to visit the schools of Vocational Education and Training in the tourism, agri-food and ICT sectors. In these territories, hit hard by the earthquake in 2019 and later by the pandemic, the competence, professionalism and tenacity of the people were perceived, but above all the determination of the school leaders and teachers who put the welfare of the student first and consider the development of the central school for the socio-economic growth of the territory❗ 👉 Thereby raises awareness that the time is ripe to take the first steps towards the internationalization of schools and their involvement in European mobility activities financed by the Erasmus+ program and the MoMaVET project.
