Vocational Training Programmes for Students (VET)

We organise comprehensive and innovative vocational training programmes for youth groups from across Europe within the Erasmus+ Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector. Our projects combine traditional vocational learning with elements of non-formal and intercultural education, enabling participants to develop not only technical skills but also social, linguistic and interpersonal competences.

If you represent a school looking for a host organisation for your Erasmus+ VET project — we invite you to Rzeszów. We are an experienced team designing coherent and meaningful programmes that include both practical training and activities aimed at strengthening the competences of future professionals, regardless of the field of study.

We work with students from a wide range of educational profiles. We design programmes for IT students, electronics technicians, hospitality and catering students, cooks, waiters, environmental protection technicians, administration and civil service students, and many other specialisations. Depending on the needs of the group, we can organise practical workshops, study visits, project-based activities or structured traineeship programmes — always tailored to the school’s profile and the participants’ level of advancement.

Our programmes go far beyond vocational training alone. We enrich the stay in Rzeszów with cultural and language components, including city and regional visits, participation in local events, language workshops and integration activities with young people from the region. As a result, students not only gain professional experience but also build confidence, openness and readiness to work in an international environment.

We ensure full organisation of the stay: accommodation, meals, comprehensive logistics, coordination support and ongoing communication with teachers and group leaders. Each programme is developed individually to align fully with the school’s objectives and the needs of its students.

Rzeszów is often described as a city of young people, dynamic, growing and full of new initiatives. But can it also be considered a tourist destination? This is the question that students from Sárvári Turisztikai Technikum in Hungary explored during their three-week stay in Rzeszów as part of the Erasmus+ VET programme. Their goal was to see the city not only as visitors, but above all as future professionals in the tourism and hospitality sector.

From the very beginning, their experience went beyond simple sightseeing. The programme was designed to present different dimensions of the industry, from vocational education to the public sector and private businesses. The students visited institutions such as Zespół Szkół nr 3 in Rzeszów and Zespół Szkół Gospodarczych, where they could observe how future professionals in the sector are trained in Poland. At Hotel Sokół Wellness & SPA, they gained insight into the daily operations of the hospitality industry, while visits to organisations and companies such as Nestlé, the Marshal’s Office of the Podkarpackie Region and Space4Youth provided a broader understanding of how local economy and services function and interact.

Alongside the professional visits, language and intercultural workshops played an important role in the programme. Students developed their communication skills in English and learned how to navigate an international environment, which is essential in the tourism sector. These everyday interactions and shared experiences allowed them not only to gain knowledge, but also to better understand cultural differences and similarities.

There was also time to explore the region. Group trips to Łańcut and Kraków gave participants the opportunity to experience places important to the history and culture of southern Poland and to look more closely at the region’s tourism potential.

After three weeks, the answer to whether Rzeszów is a tourist city remains open. Perhaps not in the traditional sense, but it certainly proved to be a place where tourism, education and local initiatives come together, creating an interesting space for learning and gaining experience. The project was implemented within the Erasmus+ programme, which enables young people to gain practical skills and explore different professional perspectives in an international context.
