International opportunities

Go global – internationalism is for you too!

Internationality is an important part of everyday life in Perho – and above all, it’s an opportunity for you. We want to offer all students equal and varied opportunities to go abroad as part of their studies.

Internationalisation is not just a journey to a new country – it is a journey towards new skills, better job skills and the courage to operate in a global environment. The workplace of the future knows no borders, and we want you to be ready for it.

Perho students in the world

Perho is one of the most international vocational schools in Finland. Every year, around 40 students go on individual mobility and around 70 participate in group mobility. Our most popular destination is Spain, but there are also varied and interesting work placements in other countries.

Ways to participate in the international period

Work abroad with our partner company – develop your professional skills in practice, strengthen your language skills and learn to work in a new culture and different working environment.

• Work abroad with our partner company – develop your professional skills in practice, strengthen your language skills and learn how to work in a new culture and environment.
• Go on a group mobility trip abroad with your group and teacher – a great way to explore the world with others.
• Participate in an international development project where you will be involved in development work with students and experts from other countries.
• Show your skills in an international student skills competition and test your knowledge in a real, international environment.

Support and security are there

International periods are funded by the EU’s Erasmus+ programme, which means you also get a grant for your trip and are not left alone with the costs. Best of all, you won’t be alone either: your International Activities Coordinator will help you with the practical arrangements, and your own teacher will support you every step of the way. And with insurance included, you can go with peace of mind.

Dare to go – this is your chance

Internationalisation is not just a journey to a new country – it is a journey towards new skills, better job skills and the courage to operate in a global environment. The workplace of the future knows no borders, and we want you to be ready for it.
