Europemobility
Market. Following the successful introduction of the marketplace at
last years conference it is intended to continue this to stimulate and bring
potential partners together to plan and develop new mobility links – either
through Leonardo mobility or Erasmus programmes.
This year it
is envisaged that ‘mobility groups’ will be formed along occupational / skill
sector lines (eg: those delegates interested in mobility links in the
field of Engineering/automotive; those in the field of Health and Social
Care; Business Administration and Informatics).
