EU Mobility

✨ Looking back to December with fond memories! ✨

In Bydgoszcz, we had the pleasure of hosting a conference dedicated to supporting schools in applying for Erasmus+ mobility projects and preparing high-quality applications. The event brought together educators, school leaders, and project coordinators for a day full of inspiration, practical tips, and hands-on guidance. 🌍📚

It was amazing to see schools so engaged, asking questions, sharing experiences, and exploring new opportunities for international collaboration. Our goal was to make the Erasmus+ application process clearer, more accessible, and more exciting — and the energy in the room showed us that we succeeded!

A highlight of the day was listening to our guest speakers, who are actively involved in our projects. Their stories, insights, and real-life experiences were a powerful reminder of how Erasmus+ opens doors, fosters growth, and creates meaningful connections across borders. 💡

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the schools that joined us and to our guest speakers for sharing their time, expertise, and inspiration. Your presence made the event truly special. Together, we are building a community of learning, innovation, and international opportunities that will continue to grow. 💙

Here’s to more projects, more collaboration, and more doors opening for students and schools alike!

🌟 Erasmus+ for seniors – kicking off in 2026!

🔷 At the end of 2025, we had the pleasure of meeting Zofia Banaszak, President of the Zielona Góra University of the Third Age . The discussions opened real opportunities for collaboration and educational trips for seniors.

🔷 This university has as many as 1,200 members, highlighting the scale and potential of our cooperation. The first project will focus on sending seniors to Split, Croatia, where they will take part in workshops, exchange experiences, and participate in programs tailored to the needs of different groups.

💡 Erasmus+ = connecting generations, inspiring growth, and creating new opportunities in an international environment.

🎄✨ Holiday Greetings from EU Mobility! ✨🎄

As 2025 comes to an end, we want to thank everyone – our interns, partners, and followers – for a great year full of learning, collaboration, and fun moments! 💛

Wishing you a joyful holiday season, lots of smiles, and a New Year full of exciting experiences and success! 🌟

🌞Challenging internships, real commitment. 💻⚙️

🔵Students from Stredná odborná škola Handlová á came to Katowice as part of the Erasmus+ program to complete software and hardware internships. These are demanding profiles that require focus, dedication, and hands-on problem-solving — and from day one, it was clear that this group was ready for the challenge. 🚀

🔵The weekend offered a short break with a relaxed trip to Kraków, giving them a chance to recharge, explore the city, and connect outside the workplace. 🏰☕

🔥10 days in Katowice powered by learning, culture & international energy!

16 students and 4 teachers from Italy visited Technikum nr 15 im. Tomasza Klenczara as part of an EU mobility exchange. Together with Polish students, they exchanged experiences, took part in hands-on workshops, and built strong international connections 🤝

🖤 The first day of the visit focused on discovering Silesian traditions and local culture. Participants joined a parade of the Mining Brass Band, conducted by Mirosław Kaszuba, and listened to traditional miners’ songs — a key element of regional heritage. Later, at MDK “Południe”, they met with members of “Forbotki” – the Silesian Costume Reconstruction Workshop, who shared their passion for preserving regional traditions. The visit was complemented by a presentation from Bogdan Kallus, Director of MDK, who introduced the center’s cultural activities.

🎓 An interesting part of the program was participation in the Science Festival at the Katowice Congress Center, where interactive exhibitions and educational projects inspired curiosity and creativity.

🔥 Beyond the classroom, participants:
visited Qudio, learned about history during a visit to Auschwitz and independently organized trips to Kraków and the Wieliczka Salt Mine.

They also experienced local traditions such as Barbórka and enjoyed time together during a barbecue, making their stay both educational and meaningful.

🟢 Results: strengthened language skills, intercultural competence, teamwork, and unforgettable educational experiences.

🟠 In November, we welcomed a group of Lithuanian students to Katowice 🇱🇹🇵🇱. Together with the students of Maria Curie High School nr. VIII in Katowice, they exchanged ideas, compared their school life and took part in hands-on language activities that helped both groups connect quickly 🤝.

🟢 At EU Mobility, we see real value in initiatives like this. Bringing schools together, creating meaningful face-to-face interactions and watching students genuinely enjoy learning from each other is a key part of our mission 🌍📚.

🔴 Thank you to everyone involved — we’re truly proud of the engagement and openness shown by both groups 🙌.

🟣 In September, we welcomed a group of students from Slovakia who got a firsthand look at professional work across different industries. From CNC 🛠️ and automotive mechanics 🚗 to machinery production 🏭, each day brought new challenges and practical skills that will stay with them long after the program.

🟣 The students also visited the 17th International Fair of Machine Tools, Tools and Machining Technologies (TOOLEX) in Katowice, where they explored cutting-edge technologies, met industry professionals, and gained inspiration for their future careers.

🟣 This experience proved that Erasmus+ is more than learning – it’s a real launchpad into the professional world, helping students build skills, confidence, and practical knowledge in an international setting! 😌😌

🟩 Teachers from Croatia visited Katowice as part of a preparatory visit ahead of their Erasmus+ trip. The purpose was to explore how the students’ program might be organized and to get acquainted with a former internship venue – the Egzotarium Sosnowiec, where students previously gained hands-on experience. Participants had the opportunity to see the possibilities offered by the venue and observe work with animals and plants. 🐸🌿

🟩 They also explored the city and got a sense of what everyday life during the trip could look like. Everyone returned very satisfied and full of inspiration – we are looking forward to welcoming them back this spring! 🌸

🔷 In October, we had the pleasure of hosting a group from Slovakia Nová Ves, students in the Digital Media Graphics and Electricians/IT programs, as part of their Erasmus+ mobility.

🔷 The group was well-prepared and engaged during the activities, and the cooperation went very smoothly. We organized a trip to Kraków and a visit to Guido, which allowed the participants to get to know the local environment and spend time outside the formal program.

🔷 It was a successful and valuable visit — we thank them for coming and look forward to further collaboration in future projects.

‼️Yesterday in Warsaw, our team had a very inspiring meeting with Zbigniew Tomczak, President of the Civic Association Parliament of Seniors. We usually work on projects for youth and teachers, but now we are also expanding into a new, equally important area.

🔴 Thanks to this meeting, we have started a collaboration with this senior-focused organization. Soon, groups of seniors will be visiting our locations and taking part in activities and courses designed especially for them.

🔴 This is a wonderful step towards intergenerational and community-oriented initiatives. We’re excited to open our locations to seniors as well — and we can’t wait for the first meetings! 🤝

🌍 EU Mobility is not only about projects, internships and training – it’s also about people and shared moments ❤️
Our mugs made it all the way to the mountains – and coffee tastes best together ☕⛰️

Because no matter the place – Sweden, Croatia, Italy or Poland – we are united by the same energy and the same journey 🇪🇺
