SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT

LEONARDO MOBILITY PROJECT

LdV-HU-13-IVT-1119

The aims of the professional trainings were broadening the knowledge of our students by applying for modern machines and technologies in the well-developed European region, improving foreign language skills. In the field of engineering students have already had basic trainings.

The following direct aims were set: improving the development of professional skills, promoting the finding of employment after leaving school, gaining new experiences, forming the competence of working in a multinational team, becoming acquainted with the Czech culture.

Twelve students from the field of engineering were appointed as a target group. The selection was fulfilled on the basis of the students’ grades and behaviour.

Our partner was the Technical and Business College in Brno (the former Integrated Secondary School Centre of Vocational Education), where our students have already participated vocational trainings three times before.

Scheduling of the project:

Programmes of the residence:

The 2-week residence was taken place from 4 May 2014 to 17 May 2014. The scheme was prepared by the Czech partner after verification. The leisure activities and the journeys were also organised before setting out.

The first week started with pneumatic practise. First the terminology of controlling and regulation techniques were outlined by the Czech teacher, afterwards circuits were carried out on FESTO tables by reason of sketches. They also gained experience of 3D printing. Students visited the local Bosch firm.

The practice was followed with CNC training. Students became acquainted with S2000 lathe stimulation program, and work pieces were made.

The students were shown the Czech sights during the two weeks. They visited Brno, Prague and Telč.

Our students emphasized the improvement in the field of their profession, they could get to know new processes, different types of equipment and methods, they had opportunities to practise their foreign language knowledge.

At the end of the project the students received their Europass Mobility Certificates.
