The programme segment move-it is addressed at teaching staff of the vocational education institutions of our cooperation partners who want to gain experience in another European country. It supports further training of vocational training personnel in the form of job shadowing / hospitation or training activities in a company or with a provider of vocational education and training. Participation in training courses is also possible. Information on the regulations and the eligibility of training and courses can be found here (German only).
