Objective
The integration of Hungary in the EU has led to the introduction of new forms of training in the country. Vocational education and training (VET), based on European models, is being developed to meet the demands on the EU labour market. In VET course design special attention will be given to the acquisition of foreign language skills as a means to promoting mobility. This project aims to provide teachers in VET with skills training for teaching vocational subjects in another European language.
The project proposes to develop a phased foreign language training course focusing on communication skills, specialised terminology and general language skills. Trainees' language skills will be tested to enable programmes based on individual needs to be developed. During phase I, training will concentrate on these needs in order to bring all trainees' language skills up to a similar level. In phase II, training will be practice-oriented. Trainees will be filmed and their performance analysed and evaluated.
Certificates will be awarded to successful trainees on the basis of regular assessment by trainers from partner countries and performance in a lesson given in a foreign language. Products will include teaching aids relevant to individual needs and collections of technical/professional vocabulary.
Impact
The project will lead to improved foreign language training in VET, promote student mobility across Europe and create opportunities for further co-operation between the partner institutions.
