experiencing

The European Union is made of its citizens and for its citizens! Go abroad and explore Europe with the European mobility programme ERASMUS+!

Our targetgroup 

Skills#EU will impact on the main target groups which are the trainees who are participating in a VET mobility programme and the trainers who are mentoring the trainees before and after their stay abroad.

The intellectual outputs which are produced in the Skills#EU project will add to a positive European experience of trainees in VET mobility programmes and provide them with a new component of civic education which is currently largely underrepresented in their entire education. The trainers on the other hand are enabled to easily integrate the civic components in their programme and extend their educational offer. By its European setup and the focus on multipliers, the Skills#EU project is largely increasing the promotion of European values in Europe.

Direct target groups
