Industrial VET Hub organises the 1st virtual Staff Training Activity in Viborg

The first virtual staff training mobility has taken place in Viborg (Denmark).

The Industrial VET Hub project includes 4 short-term training activities of VET teachers of industrial-related studies in project partner’s cities (Barcelona, Tartu, Viborg, Westerburg) with the aim to gain hands-on experience on the Good Practices and project-related activities on Industry, VET and gender.

Between the 22^nd and 24^th of March we have organised the first virtual activity for staff hosted by our colleagues from Mercantec (Viborg, Denmark) attended by 6 VET teachers from Barcelona, Tartu and Westerburg.

The programme of activities included a virtual visit to Mercantec’s facilities, highlighting a virtual tour around the innovative Data Centre and Automotive department of the school; presentation of the key good practices both in Viborg and Denmark (see Manual of Good Practices on Industry, VET & Gender); introduction on the Danish VET system and the industrial sector in Viborg; the digitalisation strategy of Mercantec’s and a session on hackschooling. A total of 10 speakers were invited to share their knowledge and experiences on the project topics.

Due to COVID-19, the next virtual staff training mobility in Estonia will also be online by the end of April 2021. Stay tunned!
