Thank you for collaboration! Thank you for excellent two years!

• 11/09/2014 – (e)Vet2edu Exploitation Workshop within the seminar “Open schools – open opportunities”
• 18/09/2014 – (e)Vet2edu Exploitation Workshop integrated to the course “Internal corporate education – professional trainer”
• 23/09/2014 – (e)Vet2edu Exploitation Workshop “Open resources and on-line tools in education”.

Within these three workshops our goal was to invite and discuss topics about on-line education with the various target groups. We wanted to create a picture of how these groups perceive new possibilities offered by the online environment and if they already use or plan to use it in their classwork.

Within these workshops we met with:
- Teachers of secondary school
- High school teachers
- University teachers
- Trainers of managerial skills and soft skills
- Coaches in the field of HR
- Corporate trainers

It was especially interesting to compare lecturers and trainers active in the practice in enterprises with teachers in schools. Teachers are much more skeptical, conservative, while practitioners are able to apply ideas and are more inclined to modern forms of education.

Due to experiences from different backgrounds, it was possible to discuss the benefits and possible problems in different situations. There were also discussed areas in which it would be appropriate to solve teaching on-line. They expressed also that “grasp all, lose all” – mainly children and young people need to maintain a compromise between “virtual” and personal interactions.

On September 26th CARNet team held the third exploitation workshop. The workshop was held in form of a webinar and was attended by 25 teachers of vocational schools.

During the workshop the course “Introduction to e-learning for teachers of vocational subjects” as well as the eVET2Edu project were presented. In addition to the presentation of the course, the workshop was an opportunity for a discussion with the vocational teachers about organising the course by their institutions.

This was the last exploitation workshops organised for all the interested teachers and representatives of vocational institutions and vocational schools, with the main goal to disseminate the information about the course and the possibilities of its further use after the project is finished.

The aim of the webminars was to contact the directors of these Centres, because they are the ones who decide the training of VET teachers and develop some of the e-learning experiences in different part of Spain. Once the contact was created (by webminars or by email) some Centres have shown serious interest in implementing the course as a part of their teaching training for VET teachers. We have planned more meetings with these centres to help them to develop the course. In some chases we are planning to organize more meetings with the leaders of different educational institutions in the area. In other chases, we are planning to meet future facilitators of the course, to help them to facilitate VET teachers.

Webminars done: July, 22th. 13:00
September, 9th. 10:00
September, 17th. 10:00
September, 23th. 10:00

GITE research group has the intention of doing an annual webminar to show the work done in different projects and evet2edu would be an important part of it.

Dates of upcoming workshops for teachers of vocational subjects and internal corporate trainers are as follows:

• 11th of September, Ostrava: “Open schools – open opportunities”
• 18th of September, Ostrava: “Internal corporate trainings – new approaches”

We wrote a short summary after the meeting earlier before, but now it is the time for refreshing our memories from efficient cooperation, engaging discussions and social activities. Again thanks to Norwegian colleagues from HIST we can share with you short video from that memorable meeting.

To paraphrase Agnieszka, we would like to say from our heart “big THANK YOU” to teachers from Obrotna Technicna Skola. “We felt at home”
