The final experiential phase of the
project, held in Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, marked the
conclusion of a series of meetings dedicated to operators from
vocational training centers in the Western Balkans. This event
was part of the European Erasmus+ project "VET WEB - Valorising
Experiences for Training in the Western Balkans and the Capacity
Building mission, led by IAL FVG.
The objective of the program, which took place in several
phases, including an exploratory phase in the Western Balkans in
September 2023 and two experiential phases in January 2024 in
Brussels and June in Friuli Venezia Giulia, was to improve the
organizational and service quality of Vocational Education and
Training (VET) operators from non-Erasmus associated third
countries.
The initiative, coordinated by Marianna Muin, head of IAL
FVG's international projects and funded by the EU with a
24-month duration and a total budget of €350,000, came to a
close in Spain with the participation of a delegation of 16
teachers and staff members from vocational training centers in
Albania and Montenegro, who were involved in the project.
"Thanks to the established network of the Asociacion Fress, a
project partner, and the associated partner Anccp Vet,"
explained Muin, "the Balkan operators had the opportunity to
learn about the Spanish and Catalan vocational education and
training system and its main stakeholders, especially social
partners and public education and vocational training
administrations at national, regional, and local levels. Now, it
is up to the professionals involved," she added, "to transfer
and adapt what they have seen and learned to their respective
countries."
