Uniser Teacher Week 2025: Full Schedule

At Luovi Vocational College, we are committed to promoting equal opportunities for international mobility, whether in vocational qualifications or preparatory training. Every student at Luovi requires support in their studies, and we believe that international experiences should be accessible to all. In this workshop, you will discover how to organize mobilities for students with special needs, prepare learners for their mobility experiences, and integrate these opportunities into the curriculum. Also internationalisation at home activities are important to prepare the students. Additionally, we emphasize the importance of training support persons to ensure a smooth and enriching mobility experience for everyone involved.

5. Erasmus+ Quest: a Teachers' Workshop to Let Students Discover Mobility Opportunities (Level: ENTRY & EXPERT)

Thursday May 8, 2025 10:00am - 11:15am CEST

Yellow room (upstairs)

Young Europeans have access to a range of educational opportunities within the European Union, yet they often feel disoriented when faced with them. It is therefore essential to guide them by providing a mental map that enhances the accessibility of European mobility programs.
This workshop is a simulation of the work teachers can do in the classroom to promote the search for key information on the functioning of youth exchanges, the European Solidarity Corps, DiscoverEU, Erasmus+, EURES, and more.
Divided into groups, teachers will start from a set of sources and testimonials to learn how to set up a workshop for their students. This will help improve inclusivity, awareness, and independent research skills regarding EU programs for young people.
