Comenius ‘Training for LIFE’ Petrik Lajos Vocational School Budapest, Hungary March-April, 2014

CLIP Activities/Dissemination

On 28th March our school held the 5th Annual Petrik Student Conference Our team had an info point at the conference.

Students and teachers could gather information about the Training for LIFE project at the info point We also had leaflets which we distributed during the conference

At the conference students of 8 vocational schools from Budapest held 50 lectures altogether. Around 500 students attended the conference.

One of the lectures was held by Ádám Kánai, who was part of the Hungarian delegation in Portugal in February. He talked about the aims of the project, his experiences and the characteristics of a good leader. His lecture was based on the material that had been learnt by that time.

We also printed the Hungarian newsletter and distributed it during the breaks among the teachers from other schools The Conference was a great success and many students from other schools could hear about our project.

In April a lecture was held by one of the members of the American Chamber of Commerce in Hungary at our school The lecture was about the importance of foreign language knowledge, the keys to become a successful entrepreneur and the characteristics of a good leader

On 16th April it was time for the annual Petrik Day at school. We also had an info point and students could fill in a questionnaire about the characteristics of good leadership. They could also gather information about the project.

More than 50 students took their time to fill in the questionnaire and evaluate their knowledge about good leadership.

After the analysis of the questionnaries, we can say that: 1. We learned a lot about leadership during the year. 2. We should invite more students from the school to join our project. 3. What we have learnt so far, motivates us to go on studying about good leadership.

Thank you for your attention!
