Through participation in various European Union programmes and on the basis of bilateral agreements the College students are provided an opportunity to study in foreign educational institutions, accomplish practical training in various foreign enterprises and thus improve their professional, language and personal skills. The teachers are offered an opportunity to improve their lifelong learning competences by developing their professional and personal skills in European education space. Their skills are then applied while renewing the content and methods of studies.
