Moreover the platform provides different services related to the preparation and the training of both hosting organizations and participants, in order to improve the quality mobility system.
The Hosting Organization has just three simple duties: 1)before the mobility it has to agree and sign the Learning Agreement with the trainee and the University, he/she belongs to; 2) once the mobility is started it has to fill in and send the Letter of Arrival, which proofs the beginning of the traineeship, 3) at the end of the mobility it has to fill in and sign the Traineeship Certificate. That’s all : ) !
