BETTER LEARNING MOBILITY OPPORTUNITIES IN WESTERN BALKANS
The project INTERVET Western Balkans aimed at creating opportunities for learning mobility in the training centers of Western Balkans and improving the culture of learning mobility in the field of VET.
To do so, the project foresaw activities at two levels: on the one hand, the mobility of VET learners and on the other, the competence building of VET staff. The objectives of INTERVET Western Balkans were also twofold: the project would allow participants to have better access to resources related to international training mobility and to learn more about already existing opportunities.
The consortium included associations, SMEs, VET centers, chambers of commerce and a university from 6 regional partners:
as well as 8 partners from EU Member States: Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Malta, Spain, Slovenia and Poland. The project was coordinated by Uniser Società Cooperativa Sociale Onlus from Bologna, Italy. You can have a look at the partnership here.

PROJECT RESULTS
- Discover the main activities implemented in INTERVET in a few slides by reading this presentation.
- Video – guidelines: the tool has been developed to offer hands-on assistance and recommendations for organizations new to overseeing international mobility projects. You are an organization willing to implement a mobility project and you are looking for tips? Then this is the right tool for you.
- Mobility toolkit for VET practitioners about how to set up and manage a mobility project in the Western Balkans. It has been conceived by the project partners to build the basis for a “mobility system” able to make learning mobility possible in the long term in all these countries.
- A dedicated section on the Moving Generation platform has been developed for INTERVET. This platform enables users to streamline and simplify various workflow processes associated with the management of mobility projects. The integration of a dedicated section on the Moving Generation platform for the project is a strategic move to leverage technology for the efficient administration of Erasmus+ mobility projects. Moving Generation is a tool designed to realize a paperless Erasmus and it underlines its commitment to modernizing and optimizing the mobility project management process. The engagement of all sending and hosting partners, as well as the participants in the latest departure round, demonstrates the practical utility and widespread adoption of the platform for sharing vital information related to mobility experiences.
