Erasmus+ Internships in Sicily: Welcoming Students from Slovakia, Poland, Spain, and Bulgaria
Empowering European Students through Vocational Training Experiences
At EProjectConsult, we are proud to support Erasmus+ mobility projects that give young Europeans the opportunity to grow both professionally and personally.
Every month, we welcome students from across Europe who come to Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto to take part in internships and training experiences within local companies and organizations.
These exchanges not only allow students to put their studies into practice, but also to immerse themselves in Sicilian culture, develop intercultural communication skills, and build valuable professional connections for their future careers.
In recent weeks, we had the pleasure of hosting several groups from Slovakia, Poland, Spain, and Bulgaria, each engaged in different sectors — from automotive mechanics to advertising, odontology, and electrical engineering.
Let’s take a closer look at their inspiring journeys and achievements in Sicily.
Hands-On Learning in Automotive and CNC: Slovak Students in Sicily
We are thrilled to welcome a group of six talented students from Slovakia, specializing in automotive mechanics and CNC technology, who are completing their Erasmus+ internship in Sicily.
Hosted by our trusted partner companies — Adige Car Service and Sport Aretusa — the students are gaining practical, hands-on experience in real work environments.
Guided by experienced professionals, they are improving their technical skills and applying what they’ve learned in their schools. Their enthusiasm and commitment make this mobility experience a valuable step in their vocational education and training (VET) path.
From the Classroom to Sicily: Polish Students in Action
We also had the pleasure of hosting 16 students from Poland specializing in advertising techniques and trade, as part of another Erasmus+ mobility project.
Their internships took place at several partner companies — Codgo, Visicolab, Emmecart, NAD, Pubblimania, Horme, and EPC — where they gained professional experience in marketing, design, and business communication.
Beyond their training, they enjoyed discovering Sicily’s cultural heritage, visiting Etna, Taormina, Palermo, and Cefalù.
These young participants returned to Poland enriched with new competences, international experience, and wonderful memories from their Sicilian adventure.
From Barcelona to Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto: A New Erasmus Journey Begins
On October 28th, we welcomed a new group of four Spanish students from Cornellà de Llobregat (Barcelona).
For one month, they are completing internships in local dental clinics, acquiring real-world experience in the field of odontology.
Their stay began with a warm introduction to Sicilian culture — including a traditional granita welcome — and exciting excursions to Palermo, Cefalù, Mount Etna, and Taormina.
Throughout their mobility, our team will continue to provide guidance and support, ensuring a successful and memorable Erasmus+ internship in Sicily.
Welcoming Bulgarian Students for Their First Professional Experience Abroad
We were delighted to receive 22 students from the Professional School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering of Pirdop (Bulgaria).
Their goal: to apply their technical studies in real workplaces and expand their professional knowledge through this Erasmus+ mobility experience.
They are currently interning with local professionals in mechanics, electricity, and administration, gaining confidence in a new environment and overcoming language barriers with determination.
Of course, Erasmus+ also means cultural discovery: the group has already explored Palermo, Etna, Taormina, and Milazzo, and they’re loving Sicilian cuisine!
As their internship progresses, their enthusiasm remains high. We are proud to accompany them throughout this experience, and we look forward to celebrating their achievements and growth during their final evaluation.
A Journey of Growth, Skills, and Cultural Exchange
At EProjectConsult, we believe in the power of Erasmus+ mobility to foster personal growth, professional development, and intercultural understanding.
Hosting students from across Europe — Slovakia, Poland, Spain, and Bulgaria — reinforces our mission to create impactful learning experiences that prepare young people for the global labor market.
