Dissemination & Exploitation

The fifth newsletter was sent to Inforef's relevant contact in Belgium and Europe. 150 people and organisations received it. The newsletter is available here.

The UK Multiplier Event was held on 28th February 2018 as a showcase in a national event for providers of adult learning. A wide cross-section of organisations, including public sector organisations, VET training providers, vocational support agencies, regional colleges and universities, voluntary sector organisations attended. Approximately 400 people were registered for the event and 60 expressed an interest in coming to the CLIL showcase event.In the event 41 delegates attended.

Out of the 60 who had expressed an interest in the VG-CLIL Showcase, 41 attended the event which included presentations about the project and its objectives plus a demonstration of the Training Platform. Delegates were given the chance to experience the activities on the platform.

There was positive feedback and a genuine interest in the topic. Many of the audience were not familiar with this approach to employability/language training and thought that the integrated content added a new dimension that made the learning programme more interesting and challenging. They felt that it would be especially useful for language students seeking job opportunities abroad thus contributing to greater economic and social mobility. There were several enquiries likely to result in exploitation and sustained use of the product (particularly from language tutors). There were also a number of requests for a similar tool to be developed at lower language levels eg. A2

On the 23rd February 2018 ASTERES organized the Italian multiplier event of the project. For the occasion we had the support of the Government of the Marche Region (Department for job policies and career guidance). The conference title was "Vocational and Career Guidance and ICT". During the day the project implementation and output were presented to a large audience of school leaders, teachers, career guidance operators, placement officers from the main Universities of the Region and citizens. The event was also the occasion to present the global policies of the regional Government in the field of vocational and career guidance, and to reflect on the possible integration between regional, national and European actions.

Final multiplier event in Belgium

“Demain je serai diplômé” was a thematic day organised by HELMo for its third baccalaureate (last year) students. It was an information day about entering the labour market, with sessions about such topics as writing a CV and entrepreneurship. INFOREF took the opportunity to introduce students to European mobility and the opportunities offered by ERASMUS+. The session was attended by HELMo 3^rd BAC students and ERASMUS students spending the semester at HELMo.

The session started with a presentation of the ERASMUS+ programme. People usually know about student mobility initiatives, but not all are aware of the other opportunities offered by the programme. INFOREF focussed its presentation on the first two key actions: Mobility, and Cooperation for innovation and good practices.

This was followed by a presentation of Inforef’s activities, and particularly its ongoing educational projects, most of which are funded by ERASMUS+. Some time was also dedicated to science projects as most attendants studied laboratory techniques. The presentation with an introduction to “Vocational Guidance in CLIL”.

The project was outlined: its objectives, target groups, partners, the main topics addressed in the training platform and how these were addressed. Then, the platform was shown, explaining how its section and it works, and showing a selection of videos from all five languages and examples of exercises based on them. The presentation finished showing what the platform looks like on a smartphone and displaying the links to it VGCLIL social networks.

To conclude the session, Alice Cecchellero, an intern from Italy currently working in Belgium, told participants about her experience as an Erasmus student in Scotland and Spain and as a worker in Belgium. She explained what she had gained from those experiences, not only in terms of specific skills (languages, professional skills) but also soft skills and social interactions. She also explained how using the VGCLIL platform helped her improve her command of French.
