ERASMUS+ 2020 KICK OFF

Hello everyone!

After a very busy month of February our Erasmus+ students are ready and eager to spread their wings and live new experiences.

María José and Natalia are getting ready to fly to the UK. It has been a very stressful beginning of the year because we didn't know what could happen because of the Brexit and how it would affect their internship.

Thankfully, everything has been set, and they are good to go and learn a lot about imports and exports.

Natascha and Luis Eduardo are going to go to Poland and be a little bit cold at the beginning; hopefully they are ready for it. They are going to be more involved in regards to marketing and also administrative work.

Finally, Luis is going to Ireland and enjoy the beautiful scenery they have. His internship is also closely related to administrative work.

We wish them all the best and hopefully they'll come back with a better knowledge of English and much more independent.

Happy new year 2020!

The end of the year is a time when we always think of what we did, how we feel about ourselves… We also review our list of dreams or things we would like to do. 

It is a good opportunity to take stock of our lives and try to improve somehow. It is a good time to think of a new year resolution. Here we share some of our student's resolutions:

My experience in EP Javeriana

Good morning:

My name is Luis Valero and I study Administration Assistant. I am 23 years old. I have studied Bachelor in a High School in Madrid. After, I have done some courses, but I haven’t found my own way until I have arrived here, I think.

In this place, Javerianas School, I think I can do some studies appropriated for me. Here teachers can help me because they understand my difficulties. This school and people here have some works I like a lot.  I like the companionship I find here. I think I must study with hope and effort and I will do my best.

Finally, I think that all the studies make us get better not only to every one of us but also everybody together.

P.D I think I am already “Javeriano” because I was born 3th of December (Day of Saint Francis Xavier).

10 years being ERASMUS+

Ten years ago we sent our first Erasmus students on an adventure, but it wasn't only an adventure for them, it was also for us, the ones that stayed behind making sure that their experience was going well and being their homebase in case something went wrong.

We can definitely say that the beginnings weren't easy: the administrative work in order to be and Erasmus+ institution, looking for companies that would welcome our students during three months to do practice work, but also to advise them in any doubts they could have about living in that foreign country, and so many more hurdles...

We are happy to say that, in one way or another, we have been able to send students to many different countries: Ireland, the UK, North Macedonia, Czech Republic, Poland, Croatia, Estonia... And we are getting ready to collaborate on a whole other level with other institutions.

In addition, we cannot forget to mention that the Erasmus+ programme not only has enriched the experiences of our students while doing their practice work abroad, it has also been an opportunity for us teachers. Firstly, because we have had to keep in mind that the learning process has to contemplate the global world and society we live in, but also it has allowed some of us to travel and see how other places work and what we can learn from them.

In conclusion, we are overjoyed with how these 10 years been part of the ERASMUS+ programme have made us improve ourselves, and we cannot wait to see what the next 10 years have in store for us!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE EP JAVERIANA ON THIS ACHIEVEMENT!

WELCOME BACK!

Our ERASMUS+ students are back in Spain!

They have come back sharing their experiences in Poland, Estonia, Ireland and the UK. After almost three months we have no doubt that they have improved both their professional skills as well as personally.

The students from Grado Superior had to demonstrate their improvement while presenting their final projects completely in English.

They have shown that these three months have been well exploited. Not only their speaking has advanced leaps and bounds; they have also shown how working in a different environment has made them think outside of the box and present very interesting projects.

We hope that their experience doesn't stay as a fond memory, but that they will use those skills learnt all their life.
