The Erasmus+ RMT project is ending !

Here we are! The Erasmus+ RMT team is happy to inform you that all the outputs are now available in the 5 languages of the partnership, and downloadable from the website, on the Output page.

We invite you more specifically to look at the «Methodological Toolkit for Transnational Vocational Mobility», toolkit designed for mobility operators, career counsellors and especially those looking to secure employment – young people aged between 18 and 25 finding it hard to secure entry to the job market, students at the end of the course, recent graduates, and adults seeking employment – who hope to enter a qualification process abroad as a structuring stage of their personal and professional development.

The materials, composed in three traditional stages – preparation before departure, during mobility and upon return home, has been designed to be available in paper or computer format and can be used in self-training, Individualised support and / or collective workshops. In order to make it transferable, we have chosen not to offer specific information on the different mobility programmes (participation / selection modality, legal framework, administrative and organisational procedures). This is one of the characteristics that makes it adaptable and which will enable the organisations that wish to adapt these materials by adding supplements adapted to their context and their target groups.

We, the coordinator and all the partners, look forward to your feedback. The IERF team welcomes all your questions and remains available for further information by email (contact@ierf.net).

THE BRITISH COUNCIL LAUNCHES THE “MOBILITY CIRCLE”

Convinced by the importance of a transnational mobility experience in the academic and professional careers of people of all types and of all ages and the need to find adequate solutions to facilitate and promote incoming and outgoing mobility projects, the French Office of the British Council has decided to set up the “Mobility Circle”. This group will consist of public and private organisations and service providers who will meet three to four times a year to exchange best practices and information, and above all to pool their efforts to provide the best possible solutions to interested parties. Conferences and publications are also planned to publicise common objectives and ideas. The first meeting will be held on the 24th of March 2016, in Paris, and will allow service providers, public bodies and organisations involved in this area to present their mobility projects and to encourage debate.

IERF will play an active part, alongside the Ile-de-France Regional Council, to report on the progress of our Erasmus RMT project.

Travel for increased maturity and growth… the international mobility of young people, a national priority.

Since 2013, the French Government has included European and international mobility of young people as one of its priorities. As part of the action plan “Youth is our priority’ released by the Prime Minister on 23 February 2013, new strategic and political levels have been put in place at national level (Standing Committee on European and international mobility of young people) and regional level: Regional Committee for Mobility (COREMOB). Based in the Ile-de-France since the 9th October 2015, COREMOB is the strategic body for regional and political management of international mobility programmes. It brings together all the public, private and voluntary bodies concerned with mobility of young people, whatever their status, engaged in a project of mobility for study, work-based learning or voluntary reasons. Chaired jointly by the central government and the regional council, the COREMOB aims to undertake a territorial diagnosis (status of current programmes, beneficiaries and available funding) and propose a three-year plan for the development of mobility. The Ile de France regional council is responsible of the chairing of a working group on the recognition of formal and informal benefits through mobility.

The COREMOB thus provides a unique forum both to contribute to the enrichment of the RMT project and for its dissemination at regional level.
