The North West Academy has been working as a hosting organisation for European projects since the company began in 2003. We have also managed various projects for Northern Ireland.
OUTGOING
EU Training I , EU Training II and EU Training III.
The EU Training I and EU Training II projects are aimed at young students who are attending colleges of further and higher education in Northern Ireland. These funded projects provide students with the opportunity to travel to Seville in Spain to complete a short Spanish language and cultural preparation course before undertaking a work placement in a Spanish company. The projects provide college students in Northern Ireland with a valuable opportunity to develop their skills and cultural awareness with full funding and monitoring throughout the project. In 2009 NWA received funding for running EU Training III. With EU Training III students will be able to attend internships in Spain, France and Finland.
