Objective The aim of this project is to exchange experience of engineering-student traineeships to optimise the training/employment relationship. The partners will pursue the following specific objectives:- training in-company tutors/mentors. To achieve this goal, the partners will proceed in accordance with the "tutoring/mentoring company" concept. In addition to the designated company tutor, the partners consider that the tutoring/mentoring function should be shared by several people in the company. On this basis, they will attempt to determine how company organisation and management can facilitate the implementation of a tutoring/mentoring policy, as well as- develop methods to supervise trainees throughout their course,- evaluate this training.The survey methodology will comprise a survey audit, reference guide, seminars and study trips. This will lead to the design of a training pack and a dual-purpose company network, i.e. with a bulletin board in training centres for monitoring trainees and a pool listing company placements.ImpactThis project will help assess a company's training potential, improve the quality of the training centre/company partnership and increase the employment prospects of engineering students.Contract number : F/96/1/05373/PI/I.1.1.a/FPIDomaine : Initial vocational trainingContents : On and off-the-job training in higher education Products : Trainig networks and consortia Alternance based training Book, manual, guide Public : Tutors Students Trainers, designers & managers of training programmes Programme(s) ET-LEONARDO DA VINCI 1 - Action programme for the implementation of a European Community vocational training policy Leonardo da Vinci, 1995-1999 Topic(s) I.1.1.a - Initial vocational training Call for proposal Data not available Funding Scheme CSC - Cost-sharing contracts Coordinator CEFIPA EU contribution No data Address 9 Rue D'ARCUEIL 94250 Gentilly France See on map Total cost No data
