🔍 Step 1: mapping WBL Systems (Spring 2023)
After designing a questionnaire to map work-based learning structures across countries, partners created a comparative analysis, highlighting the key findings in this infographic video.
✈️ Step 2: study visits (Sept 2023)
3 study visits took place simultaneously in Finland, Spain and Italy, involving 12 Western Balkans teachers from 11 VET schools. Here are some pictures and videos made directly from participants.
📚 Step 3: piloting in Western Balkans countries (Autumn 2023)
WB teachers piloted WBL activities in their institutions, reaching 246 students and 46 VET staff members. Check the resources page to explore the online repository: available in English and 4 Western Balkan languages.
WP3 – PROMOTING SOCIAL INCLUSION ACROSS WESTERN BALKAN COUNTRIES
💡 Step 1: finding the inclusion skills gaps (Spring 2023)
The journey began with a skills gap analysis on social inclusion. All partners shared a questionnaire across their networks of VET schools.
🎓 Step 2: learning together in Helsinki (June 2024)
25 staff members from each partner organisation moved to Helsinki for a 3-day seminar on social inclusion. It was an inspiring week full of exchange and collaboration. Watch this video of one of our participants from Kosovo sharing her experience.
🛠️ Step 3: testing and upgrading (Autumn 2024)
Once back, Western Balkans teachers upgraded teaching methodologies on social inclusion and tested them in real classrooms. The result?
