mental protection for future generations. Firstly, it aims to foster interaction, cooperation and mobility between education and training systems within the European Community, so that it can become a world quality reference. The Education Exchange Support Foundation administers the Lifelong Learning Programme in Lithuania. The aim of the Education Exchange Support Foundation is to help utilise international cooperation possibilities, administer programmes, and disseminate results of their activities. The Leonardo da Vinci programme is designed to support those involved in vocational training and further vocational training activities while acquiring and applying knowledge, and obtaining skills and qualifications; to encourage professional improvement, and increase employment and participation possibilities in the European labour market. The aim of the programme is to unite institutions from different European countries including vocational training institutions of all levels, local governing institutions, employers’ organisations and other public organisations, while developing a policy on future vocational preparation.

Mobility projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme Mobility projects provide an opportunity to visit some of the 31 European countries participating in the Lifelong Learning Programme in order to raise qualifications, improve professional knowledge and skills, take part in work placements in enterprises, learn about vocational preparation innovations and new technologies, and establish new collaborative relations and exchange experiences with colleagues. The total duration of mobility projects is from 6 to 24 months. In 2007, € 1,501,000 of funding from the European Commission was granted for the support of the mobility projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme. From 2007 three target groups have been set in the mobility projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme 1. Mobility of trainees in initial vocational training (the duration of the placement is from 2 to 39 weeks). 2. Mobility of people on the labour market (the duration of the placement is from 2 to 26 weeks). 3. Mobility of professionals in vocational education and training (the duration of the placement is from 1 to 6 weeks). Target group

While assessing mobility project applications of the Leonardo da Vinci programme in 2007, considerable attention was paid to the quality of mobility: – integration of placements into the training process; – the content and duration of the placement adapted to the study programme; – evaluation of skills acquired as part of the training programme, or recognition of qualification improvement including issue of the Europass mobility document; – the quality of language training and cultural preparation. In 2007, 93 applications were submitted under the bid for mobility projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme. The total amount of funding requested was € 1,995,124. Taking into consideration the assessment results of the quality of the applications, € 1,289,586 was allocated.

transfer of innovation projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme

Transfer of innovation projects are multilateral projects with the aim to improve training systems and focus on transfer of innovations in the vocational training area, including linguistic, cultural and legal adaptation of innovative products and processes created under different conditions for national needs. The aim of the transfer of innovation projects is to improve the quality and attractiveness of the European vocational education and training system by adapting and integrating innovative content or results from previous Leonardo da Vinci Projects, or from other innovative projects into public or private vocational training systems and companies at the national, local, regional, or sectoral level. In 2007, the Education Exchange Support Foundation received 11 applications under the bid for transfer of innovation projects of the Leonardo da Vinci programme. All the received applications met the formal application eligibility criteria and were assessed by independent external experts. Following the proposal of the selection commission of the Leonardo da Vinci programme, and the decision of the European Commission, and taking into consideration the independent experts’ evaluation, the Education Exchange Support Foundation selected the five projects with the highest score to be funded. ₏ 1,171,847 was allocated for funding these projects. Nine Lithuanian organisations took part in the bid in 2007. One of them (Vytautas Magnus University) submitted three applications. All the organisations participating in the bid were from the Vilnius and Kaunas counties. Representatives from other counties did not submit any applications for the bid in 2007.
