European Project on Virtual Internships

First National Forum

Pixel organized the First National Forum of the European project entitled VI4IS – Virtual Internships for Inclusive Societies, which took place last 13 June 2023 at ITS Academy Sistema Agroalimentare based in Teramo (Italy). The project was funded by the European Commission in the framework of the Erasmus Youth Programme. The project was written and coordinated by Beogradska Otvorena Skola based in Belgrade (Serbia) and involves Pixel in the transnational partnership. The VI4IS improves access of young people (particularly those with fewer opportunities) to internship programs conducted within formal and non-formal education in Europe. The National Forum was divided into the following parts: presentation of the VI4IS project; intervention by an expert of online internships; round table aiming at defining pros and cons of the online internships. 19 participants attended the forum. They were: experts in virtual internships, young students, representatives of associations, employers and employees.
