IDEAL - innovative digital language learning for the healthcare sector
Erasmus+ programme of the European Union / VET cooperation project
The IDEAL project bridges the gap between recognised language skill deficits and current VET training/teaching/counselling methods in the healthcare sector. It will do this by developing an innovative online language learning approach, consisting of learning videos and an interactive glossary, which will be a part of a digital learning platform, as well as a teacher’s handbook with practical and methodological guidelines for the best usage of the videos, glossary and other materials collected. Additionally, the project offers digital learning tools to students and trainees in neighbouring countries so they can improve their German language skills and enter the healthcare sector.
The project contributes to raising the practical skill level of VET trainers/teachers/counsellors, and improves German language skills and labour market integration of trainees in the healthcare sector. Furthermore, it promotes the use of innovative digital learning tools for language proficiency and skills training, and transfer knowledge in this area among countries. Finally, the project contributes to better employability for people from partner countries wishing to train/work in the healthcare sector in German-speaking countries.
