TCA Description
Themes and goals:
Traineeships can be a valuable step in the
transition from education to professional life. As work experience is highly
valued by employers, the early labour market experience can be instrumental in
facilitating graduates’ transition to the world of work. However, the
increasing importance of Erasmus+ traineeships emphasises the need to ensure
its quality; hence, the seminar will gather international experts representing
the following topics:Traineeships at the European level, exploring existing frameworks and actions needed to improve their qualityHow to strengthen links between education and business sectorHow to meet the needs of students as well as the world of workBenefit for universities, their graduates and enterprises How could higher education institutions ensure good support and mentorship for studentsRole of career centre in business networkingPractical exercises on recognising the competences developed through different international experiences
Expected results:
Recommendations on ensuring the quality of traineeshipsRecommendations on how to connect HEIs and business sectorSharing examples of good practice Networking
Additional information:
We welcome our colleagues from other NAs; however, as the number of participants is limited, we would like to give priority to NA staff from co-organising countries.
