Goals and Objectives
The main objective of the project is very clear. To develop a manual for the work needed to be able to send student to a workplace. It is important to tie loose ends, to clear all formalities, to build a contract between the student, the workplace and the provider / college. It is our hope we can identify common needs for different circumstances and different sectors and build a common system.

The partnership consists of four vocational colleges / schools and two consultants. The image gives an indication of the partners.
