THE TEACHERS OF PGEE WITH A SUCCESSFUL PROJECT AGAIN

Ten teachers from PGEE have visited the vocational school Reichspräsident-Friedrich-Ebert in Fritzlar, Germany for the second time. There they were received as old friends and partners. The visit was within the project "Vocational training and renewable sources of energy - exchange of ideas and experiences”. The hosts provided a various program, including a presentation of vocational education in Germany and Bulgaria and a visit to the training facilities in the vocational school in Fritzlar. There was also a discussion about what the guests have observed along with introduction of the national core curriculum in Germany, Hessen province, under the theme of "Renewable Energy sources ". The Bulgarian teachers have also had the opportunity to visit the wind farm and solar park, WPP (EON Ederzee), the vocational training centre in the WPP as well as the manufacturing unit for practical training.  The teachers with interest examined the local industrial plant "Inverter" in the city of Kassel. Impressed by the vocational training centres in the plant and the manufacturing sector for practical training, they participated in the evaluation of student projects in the field of renewable energy sources. 
        As a result of collaboration with colleagues from Germany, our specialists have learned new skills and competencies in the use of European experience and innovation in the vocational training.  It was particularly useful for them to acquaint with the German experience in vocational education and renewable energy. 
       Reichspräsident-Friedrich-Ebert school is a vocational school for training students in the following specialities: electrical engineering, metallurgy, construction, woodworking, economics and administration, feeding (nutrition) and household agrotechnics, mechanical engineering, interior design, data processing, information technology.  The projects within the Comenius program in Finland, Cyprus and Czech Republic were also implemented in Reichspräsident-Friedrich-Ebert-Schule. Partnership events in the form of students exchange with Lakeshore College, Cleveland, Wisconsin, USA, were also carried out. Reichspräsident-Friedrich-Ebert-Schule has been a partner with the Vocational School “
Kapitan Petko voyvoda” for the second time. 
       The first project entitled "Partnership in Education" in 2008 has been awarded by the Human Resources Development Centre with Quality certificate.
