All people say work experiences abroad are useful, enriching, favour employability, develop one’s skills, etc. But what are such statements based upon?
How can we measure the “return on investment” (ROI) that many stakeholders (students, companies, schools, the EU) make, in terms of time, money, commitment, networking, availability and put oneself on the test abroad, and so on?
The ROI-MOB project aims at putting some order in the above matters, by identifying and testing some indicators, suitable to measure the return on investment in EU VET mobility.

That’s why on June 20th in Padova the ROI-MOB project partnership is organizing a Conference to discuss the results of an international 3 years work, please find the complete program and registration link here.
