Everyone is really friendly and willing to help in any way possible. We are looking forward to getting out into the Italian community to learn new skills, to explore a different culture, to meet new people and to also visit the companies where the young people will be working.

Staff mobility (VETPRO)
Mobility for Professionals in Vocational Education and Training (VETPRO) supports transnational mobility of persons responsible for vocational training and/or human resources.
A VETPRO project focuses on the transfer, improvement and update of competences and/or of innovative methods and practices in the field of vocational training. It can also cover vocational language learning of professionals.
Individual participants will receive their grants within a project organised by a coordinating organisation. Individual staff cannot directly apply for a grant.
Example of a VETPRO project hosted by ColegauCymru: a group of 12 vocational teachers from the Basque Country in Spain visit colleges in Wales to explore their approaches to youth entrepreneurship and report back to two groups of teachers who have visited Belgium and Germany.
Funding available for participants in 2012/14
Travel: 400€ maximum (actual costs)
Language preparation: 100€
Daily subsistence: Depends on the European country but the amount will cover accommodation, insurance and daily living expenses
