Partnership Proposal - FORTES srl - Vicenza, Italy

Dear Colleagues,

My name is Andrea Cecchin and I am European Project Manager in FORTES SRL – Vicenza, ITALY.

I am writing to you in order to introduce our organisation that since 15 years  manages successfully European projects, tutoring of internships for European students and graduated, seminars and training programs for experts and teachers. Our core business is the “Leonardo da Vinci” program, but we are also  active in all LLP Programs. We are developing and improving mobility and cultural programmes by promoting them throughout Europe, increasing their quality and variety.  

FORTES and CSR

FORTES srl , under its social vocation and its mission to promote the social, cultural and economic life of the people, wants to strengthen and clarify its commitment to carry out its core values. Hence our philosophy: FORTES SRL operational procedures are inspired by the principles of the European Corporate Social Responsibility (ISO 26000) and they are available in our Code of Ethics. We want to see ourselves  like  a working group that offers self-image of a cohesive team, reliable and professionally capable towards our young and old users that are following training courses. All actions towards them want to support both civil and professional growth.

Activities which may be of interest

If you are looking for an Italian Partner our organisations will be happy to support you in mobility projects (Leonardo da Vinci, Erasmus or other programs) so you might consider us as a new Italian partner with considerable experience.

We offer quality training placements in internship companies in Vicenza (Veneto Region, 70 km from Venice) for young students or workers who would like to immerse themselves in the Italian language and culture while improving their professional career.

Of course we also offer visits or Seminars for European experts who are interested in establishing links with and studying business in the Veneto region. We are in touch with a network of companies  in our region who are certified in the field of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and social cooperatives.

We can organize learning/training experiences, even short term (2-3 weeks), for groups within the IVT. These programs include thematic workshops and visits to companies and educational institutions of the area (plus of course cultural visits).

Why Vicenza?

Vicenza is known worldwide for being artistic home of Andrea Palladio and a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, but it is also an important industrial and economic heart of a province dotted with small and medium enterprises whose manufacturing base is at the first place in Italy for turnover in exports. So we can offer a large variety of companies, in  different economic fields available to host training students.

For further  information, we attach some documents about us and our activities. If you would like to find out more about us please contact our European programs department directly by e-mail to coord@fortes.it
