Aims and Objectives
As a result, one of the project objectives is to promote a mutual recognition of degrees in the field of education, finding solutions to the problems caused by national rules as well as by the differences of practices and systems.

Aims and Objectives
In order to reach this goal, the EMETT project first undertook a comparative analysis related to the changes which are under way in teacher training and school systems.

Aims and Objectives
Next, a common thread or curriculum of studies was highlighted, taking into account not only common core components of initial teacher training programmes across Europe’s multiple systems, but also integrating the problems encountered by teaching and training professionals in their daily activities.

Added value
The common curriculum, along with the minimum period of one semester spent in a partner institution, aims at ensuring greater transparency and diploma compatibility, while not excluding specific national characteristics.

The European dimension of teaching
Finally, the project intends to stimulate interest in the European dimension of teaching, by promoting the knowledge of languages and cultures of the countries making up the Union and by comparing and analysing different methodological approaches.

Promoting multilingualism and intercultural competences
The EMETT project aims at fostering in-depth knowledge of the cultural and educational characteristics of at least two European countries, through the command of a second European language and experience in learning a third language.
