During the Welcome Meeting in our office we hand the participants their ESMOVIA mobility kit: the ESMOVIA traineeship handbook, a t-shirt and a tote bag are always included!

From the idea to the result

ESMOVIA traineeship handbook is the result of various years of work and time dedicated to find solutions that can simplify the big amount of information exchange between the participants and our staff.

The handbook reflects the entire spirit of ESMOVIA: understanding our participants’ needs, providing them with user friendly tools that make their experience in Valencia profitable and enjoyable.

Characteristics

Our aim has been to create a tool that collects all the mobility information in one place but without leaving out the interactive and friendly user aspects.

After a deep analysis of the beneficiaries’ profile it was clear for us that this handbook had to have a catchy design, be easy to read and include the most recent technologies such as QR codes.

Let’s have some insights!

In the Erasmus+ 2021-2027 framework, the concept of blended mobility —a combination of virtual and physical activities— has become a core component. At ESMOVIA, we’ve embraced this innovation by offering online preparation through VIRGIL-MOB, ensuring all participants are ready for their internship in Valencia.

VIRGIL-MOB, short for VIRtual Gateway to Innovative Learning in MOBility, is an online course developed by ESMOVIA that provides participants with essential tools to prepare for their internship abroad. Designed to complement physical mobility with virtual learning, it enhances the overall experience by simulating real-life scenarios participants will face in Valencia.

Who is it for?

The VIRGIL-MOB course is specifically designed for European learners participating in mobility projects in Valencia with ESMOVIA. Created with a tech-savvy audience in mind, it caters to students who are familiar with digital platforms and prefer quick, engaging learning formats.

Duration

The course spans two weeks and requires approximately 20 hours to complete, but participants can progress at their own pace. This flexibility allows learners to review content as needed and ensures they are well-prepared for their upcoming internship or mobility experience.

The course has a duration of 2 weeks with an stimated total involvement of 20 hours. It can be done at students’ own pace, so they can review the content anytime.

Each module includes short, engaging videos (2-4 minutes), followed by quizzes and tasks that reinforce learning.

Evaluation and feedback

Participants receive instant feedback through multiple-choice questions and are required to complete final tasks for each unit. An ESMOVIA tutor reviews the tasks, providing personalized feedback to ensure participants are fully prepared for their mobility in Valencia.
