The project aims to contribute to the achievement of the General Objective of the call (“improvement and modernisation of VET systems in the area as well as reinforcing the links between VET and labour market”) interpreting the mandate as an action of capacity building, upskilling and networking to support the internationalisation of the VET systems of Western Balkans countries.

FIVE STEP CAPACITY BUILDING INTERVENTION MODEL

In compliance with the above strategic guidelines, the project’s implementation strategy foresees the following five steps:

1. in-field analysis of each WB partner, allowing the development of tailor-made upskilling and capacity building programs to develop an internationalization path;
2. capacity building and upskilling dedicated to VET staff and trainers, to discover the centres of excellence and the latest strategic topics of EU VET;
3. training and technical assistance to staff and managers of WB country, to develop their Sustainable Mobility Management Model (SMMM), set up local network(s) and develop their connection with EU networks and the labour market;
4. supported - but autonomous - piloting of mobility programs and activities for teachers and learners, with an “hands-on" approach, enabling sustainability and proactiveness from WB VET providers in organizing mobility activities;
5. training actions to foster equality and inclusion in all WB VET providers’ activities, with a special focus on the mobility ones.
