Resumo: The hosting organization is a vocational institution that offers education for students with special needs. The students need special support in learning and studying regularly due to learning difficulties, disabilities, illness, or other reasons. We offer education and training for students with the most severe disabilities or chronic illnesses.

The fields of study are household and cleaning services, janitorial services, catering services, and crafts and design. We also offer pre-vocational programmes, such as preparatory instruction and guidance for those who do not yet have a clear idea of their career choice.

We aim at ensuring education, training for and empowerment of young people with special needs. We want to provide together with different actors, such as social and health care services, for young people with the best possible tools to work and manage their lives after their studies.

Our main campus is located in the town and we have a smaller teaching unit in other town. The total number of students is about 120. The students’ age varies from 16 to 20+ years. The students live on the school premises during the study week. We employ over 70 people.

Perfil: Age: 18-30
Volunteering at the college could suit you well if you are interested in working with young people (with special needs). You also need to have an open-minded attitude towards differences and be flexible, towards changes in the planned daily routines, for example. When selecting the volunteer, priority will be given to candidates with fewer opportunities.

Tarefas: As a volunteer, you will assist the students and the staff at the vocational college and at the student dormitory. The tasks will include assisting in guiding the students and spending time, discussing, and having cultural exchange with them. You will also facilitate activities, such as hobbies and games, and assist the students in moving around. You can also help with practical tasks at the college. You can work in the day or evening shift. The tasks will be planned more in detail based on your interests and skills. Please tell us in your application what kind of tasks you are interested in and what kind of skills you have.

At the Vocational College, you will get a chance to take part in meaningful volunteering among students who need additional support and build international contacts at the grass root level.
For the students, the interaction with the volunteer will offer a good way to gain international know-how. These tasks will support participation, diversity, and normalisation – both from the point of view of the volunteer and the host organisation.

Condições: The volunteers will live in their own rooms in the main building of the main campus. They will be offered daily meals in the student restaurant of the campus. From the campus, there is a bus connection to the nearby cities on Fridays and back on Mondays. Otherwise, there are no public transport connections.

The volunteers will have 2 days off per week and will be entitled to 2 holiday days a month. The volunteers can stay overnight on campus during the weekend. In this case they prepare their own meals.
