PON stage (internship)

projects for the strengthening of the Dual Education System.
For the internship in the company, which is the core of this mobility, FORTES provides a consolidated network of foreign partners, and through them, of loyal companies through years of collaboration.

In the identification and organization of the traineeship FORTES pays great care to the participant's profile, the project and personal objectives and the expected learning outcomes.
