Erasmus+ KA1 mobility in Córdoba is at the core of our mission. This October, Training Europe hosted four different KA1 projects, creating personalised, impactful learning experiences for both students and staff. Training Europe welcomed a diverse set of Erasmus+ KA1 mobilities, showcasing the range of opportunities we offer for learners and educators of all ages. In a single week, we coordinated four different project types across education, vocational training, and adult learning:
👩🎓 Two groups of Swedish VET students beginning internships in Córdoba
👵 An Italian group from a University of the Third Age in a cultural and digital skills programme
👩🏫 A job-shadowing experience for Swedish educational professionals
🤝 A preparatory visit for planning future VET placements
Each mobility brought its own goals, energy, and cultural richness, reinforcing our commitment to inclusive, high-quality Erasmus+ KA1 experiences.

👩🎓 VET Internships: Real-World Learning for Young Participants (Erasmus+ KA1 mobility in Córdoba)
Two groups of Swedish VET students began their 3-week internships with local companies in Córdoba. Their placements spanned multiple sectors including:
- Hospitality and food service
- Retail and tourism
- Beauty and wellness
- Trades and technical professions
- Social care and education
Before starting, each student received clear orientation and guidance on workplace expectations, dress codes, and health & safety. Our team provided daily support and monitoring, ensuring that students feel secure, informed, and integrated from day one.
🛠️ Work-based learning is at the heart of Erasmus+ VET KA1 mobilities, helping students develop employability, language skills, and intercultural awareness.
