LEO-NET Consortia Day
November 26th, 2018
Ghent, Belgium
Background:
For nearly 20 years LEO-NET is active in the field of traineeship mobility and traineeship consortia. This as an international network connecting experts from mobility consortia, International Relation offices, career centers, student counselling services.
All sharing the collective ambition to boost students and young graduates for sustainable careers in an globalizing, inclusive society where each talent counts.
Right from the start of LEO-NET (1999) consortia have been embraced and valued for their specific role in enhancing European traineeship mobility.
Currently the European Commission is working on the design of the successor of the present ERASMUS+ Programme. Therefore many of our Consortia members are convinced that extra attention for the role of Consortia is at stake (cf. chapter 1 in the position paper drawn up by LEO-NET in October 2017).
Invitation:
