The CIFP Avilés is placed in Avilés, an important industrial area within Asturias, an autonomous region from northern Spain with around 1,081,000 inhabitants. Avilés area has around 83,000 inhabitants.
The Higher Education Vocational Training School Avilés offers medium and high level two-year courses, which are called “ciclos formativos” in Spanish, and ,besides, we offer special apprentice courses for teenagers to be able to have access to vocational training studies at medium level , and so help them to integrate back into the educative system again. As an example, this year we have offered a total of 30 medium and high level courses in their 2 years, first and second.There are around 1,700 students enrolled at our VET School.
We have been granted an Erasmus Charter since 2011 and we have just renewed it and been granted the NEW ERASMUS CHARTER for the period 2021-2027.
This is our ERASMUS POLICY STATEMENT.
At present we are inside a Consortium together with other 6 Higher Education VET Schools from Asturias and have applied for the Consortium Accreditation.
