ERASMUS + POLICY STATEMENT
2014-2020
We have been participating
actively for more than ten years in Lifelong Learning programmes promoted by
the European Union. Currently, besides Erasmus+ for Higher Education, we
participate or have participated in the following European programmes:
-Erasmus+ for Secondary Education
from 2002 to 2014 (former Comenius)
-Erasmus+ for Vocational Training
KA102 since 2012 (former Leonardo da Vinci)
-We also took part in the former Comenius-Regio
Programme from 2012 to 2014
During these years, we have
had the opportunity to establish relations with institutions from a wide range
of European countries (Portugal, Italy, France, Greece, Germany, the
Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, United Kingdom and Poland) and intend to get in
contact with institutions in other countries of the EU. So far we have received
no students from other Erasmus institutions, but we are open and look forward
to that possibility.
Our participation in the
Erasmus Programme is a part of our long term strategy. Our
priorities are to supply our students with the opportunity of getting high
quality placements to accomplish their Workplace Training (in Spanish “Formación
en Centros de Trabajo”, FCT). We firmly believe that an experience abroad is
extremely valuable for their training, and we encourage our students every year
to take advantage of this possibility.
Our work is based on the
principles of equal opportunities, transparency and publicity. The
selection of the participants is meant to be fair, transparent, coherent and
always documented. We the Erasmus Team have always publicized our activities
through our active and up-to-date website and social networks. Every meeting,
call for selection, or event, has been publicly announced both on our websites
and on notice boards all over our institution.
Our institution has always
strived for the integration of disabled people and for equity in general. We have
specific staff to assist the disabled students, and have always tried to assure
everybody equal opportunity, regardless of their social origin.
To ensure high quality in
academic mobility activities, we intend to pursue the following goals:
As for our institution, we intend to:
- Promote the relationship of our School with other institutions along
the EU.
- Develop a well-qualified teaching staff, with experience on relationships
with institutions from educational and business world.
As for our students, we shall:
- Offer them ways to improve their training through an exciting and
professionally rich experience abroad.
- Encourage the learning of foreign languages and cultures.
- Develop a well-trained open-minded community of professionals, with
international experience.
- Increase their employability, both in Spain and the rest of the EU,
thanks to the language skills they improve during their Erasmus placement.
- Recognize all the training period -assuming they get a positive
appraisal from the placement institution- in the same conditions as if they
were obtained in our School.
In order to give the best
visibility to our Erasmus activities, we shall implement the following
strategies:
-We shall insert the Erasmus strategy in the Educational Project of our
institution, to ensure that all teaching and non-teaching staff is well
informed about it.
-We shall continue our policy of ensuring that every call and opportunity
linked to Erasmus+ is analysed.
-We have inserted the present Erasmus Statement in our corporate
website, as well as all the information regarding to: What is Erasmus? How and
who can participate?... and everything concerning the Erasmus Charter and the students
/ teaching staff experiences in their study activities or training programmes
in EU companies.
We consider the Erasmus+
Call 2014-2020 a key step in our strategy as educational and training
institution. The grant of the Charter is a priceless opportunity
to foster our work to offer high quality training experiences to our students
and teaching staff.
