Prat FP is a 100-year-old educational institution located in the centre of Barcelona, specialised in Higher Degree Vocational Education and Training (VET) programmes in the fields of International Trade, Transport and Logistics, Administration and Finance, Marketing, and Multimedia Application Development. Due to the professional nature of our studies and their strong connection to international markets, Prat FP considers internationalisation a core element of its educational mission.

All our vocational programmes require learners to develop the ability to adapt to a globalised environment. Therefore, our aim is to equip students with the professional, linguistic, intercultural, and digital competences necessary to operate successfully in an international context. Prat FP has consistently placed strong emphasis on the internationalisation of both students and staff, understanding that quality training cannot be completed successfully without awareness of global interdependence, European cooperation, and shared values. Developing a strong sense of European citizenship that fosters cooperation among Member States is considered pivotal to our institutional vision.

To achieve the objectives of our internationalisation strategy, Prat FP actively promotes student mobility through the Erasmus+ KA131 programme, enabling learners to undertake work placements abroad. These mobility experiences are fully integrated into our curricula and are carefully prepared, monitored, and evaluated to ensure quality outcomes and the recognition of learning results. Upon return, acquired competences are validated and shared within the institution, contributing to curriculum development and the overall international outlook of our programmes.

Prat FP also encourages the international mobility of staff for training and teaching purposes, recognising its importance for professional development, pedagogical innovation, and the transfer of best practices. Staff mobility contributes directly to improving teaching quality, strengthening institutional cooperation, and enhancing our capacity to support international learners.

The institution is firmly committed to the principles of inclusion and equal opportunities. Specific measures are taken to ensure that students with fewer opportunities can access mobility programmes, through guidance, personalised support, and the effective use of Erasmus+ inclusion mechanisms. In parallel, Prat FP promotes digitalisation as a transversal priority, integrating digital tools and competencies both in teaching and in the management of international activities.

Prat FP is also committed to sustainability and responsible internationalisation, encouraging environmentally conscious practices in mobility activities and promoting awareness of the European Green Deal objectives among staff and students.

Building on its long-standing experience in European cooperation, Prat FP intends to continue participating in Erasmus+ and other European projects, including cooperation partnerships, in order to strengthen innovation, share good practices, and contribute actively to the dissemination of European values. Through these actions, Prat FP seeks to enhance the employability, adaptability, and European identity of its learners and staff, while contributing to a more cohesive, inclusive, and competitive Europe.
