Kuvaus | Our main goal is to build a strong system for apprenticeship mobility across Europe for bachelor, master, and PhD programs.
We want to make the process simpler and more standardised so students can move smoothly between countries and institutions. APP-MOBILITY unites universities, industry partners, and public authorities. Together, they make apprenticeship mobility work across borders, systems, and expectations. Our work will create the European model for Dual Education Apprenticeship Mobilities—improving education quality for everyone involved. |
Kehittämistarve | We have launched APP-MOBILITY to build a strong system for apprenticeship mobility in EU countries. While mobility policies exist, there is no unified approach for university alliances on a European scale. APP-MOBILITY combines classroom education with hands-on learning at work. It offers joint bachelor, master, and PhD programs.
We promote cooperation between universities and industry partners. This helps graduates gain unique skills that are competitive worldwide. |
