Collaboration and partnerships
REDU has a large national and international co-operation network and partnerships between different education providers, companies and other work life institutions. We host students from our partner vocational institutions for short on-the-job-learning periods as well as for workshops and projects organized by REDU. The incoming students are not enrolled as REDU students during their mobility.
REDU is an active member in several networks through which it is possible to experience different learning environments, countries and cultures. ECVET is applied to all REDUs student mobilities and the learning outcomes achieved abroad will be recognised as part of the studies.
Collaboration means also:
- Development projects between educational institutions
- Staff mobility, such as job shadowing or teaching and training assignment
- Group mobility
- Short international periods in the learning environment of on-the-job training or educational insitutions
- Skills competitions
