This week we have had the kick-off meeting of the VR4VET Erasmus+ Project in Jyväskylä, Finland. HETEL´s international department and teachers from Egibide and Sopeña Bilbao joined the rest of the team from ROC van Amsterdam (NL), Provrex (NL) and Aarhus Tech (DK), coordinated by the hosting organisation, Gradia (FI), during 3 days to start the development of a virtual environment which will host 4 domains with 3 scenarios each to train customer care skills in different VET branches: hospitality, consultancy, hairdressing and beauty and retail. Our industrial partners, the Basque organisation SAYMA among them, also joined virtually during some sections of the meeting.

We are coming home with a lot of homework, but specially with enthusiasm and satisfaction for such a great start and partnership. Looking forward to meeting our partners again in September in Amsterdam, and on-line in the meanwhile!
