For host companies

Host an Erasmus+ trainee in your company

European VET trainees in your company's own field. BragaMob takes care of everything around the placement; your company teaches the work.

What your company receives

  • A motivated trainee from your field, with their profile sent before arrival.
  • Documents: BragaMob prepares the Learning Agreement and the Europass Mobility.
  • Accommodation and meals arranged by BragaMob, in city-centre hotels and houses in Braga.
  • Daily transport between the accommodation and your company.
  • Follow-up: a BragaMob coordinator follows the trainee from the first to the last day, meets the group and visits the companies to talk with the tutors.

Your company's role

  • An internship agreement: the company signs a short internship protocol with BragaMob.
  • A tutor who guides the trainee day to day.
  • Tasks in the trainee's field: see the examples by sector below.
  • Signing the Learning Agreement before the placement starts.
  • Incidents: the company tells BragaMob about any incident, such as an accident, a behaviour issue or missed working hours.
  • Assessment on the last day: the tutor runs a theoretical and practical assessment, which is recorded, and signs the Europass Mobility.
  • Documents: the company validates the internship documents.

Hours: 6 hours a day, Monday to Friday (30 hours a week). The working language is English; participants pick up basic Portuguese during the stay.
