In mid-October 2024, 24 teachers, principals, and representatives from the Board of Education for Vienna traveled to Bordeaux, in France’s Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, for an Erasmus+ job shadowing experience. The aim of this mobility was to strengthen collaboration between nine vocational project schools from Vienna and local vocational institutions in Bordeaux.
During their exchange with French colleagues, the participants gained valuable insights into the region’s vocational training and school practices through school visits and job shadowing at various vocational institutions. A key focus was also placed on preparing for vocational mobilities for Viennese trainees in spring 2025, allowing young people to gain practical insights into the world of work in Bordeaux.
This visit marks an important step in reinforcing the Erasmus+ partnership between Vienna and Nouvelle-Aquitaine in vocational education, establishing a solid foundation for future educational projects.
