International projects
As a hosting organization:
We host students of our European partners and integrate them in our classes for short-term mobility projects. In 2023, we hosted two Latvian students for a two-week-mobility. They participated in our vehicle’s maintenance classes. Partner: Jelgavas Tehnikums.
As a sending organization:
LÉA-CFI offers apprentices the possibility to experience mobility during and after their training. More thant 100 apprentices have already been benefiting from short-term mobility projects (one week in a partner VET center and one week in company). We are currently developing long-term internships (more than 4 weeks) in companies abroad. We inform apprentices on international and European mobility projects that they can do after the ending of their training.
Blended mobility:
LÉA-CFI has experience in organizing online classes with European partners. Partner: Opera Fondazione Monte Grappa.
Our mobility projects are currently supported by the French National Association for Automotive training, ANFA, and by Erasmus+ (for EQF 4 apprentices). We will submit our application for the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education in 2024.
