Electrics/Smarthome
The Electrics and Smart Home internship enables participants to interpret technical diagrams, install and wire electrical circuits, perform measurements, and test protective devices. Participants also configure wired and wireless networks, integrate smart switches, sensors, actuators, and voice-controlled automation, and commission and troubleshoot electrical and smart home systems while applying safe working practices.
Course Duration: 2 Weeks
Projekt Korrekt e.V. – host organisation for Erasmus KA1 projects
Projekt Korrekt e.V., as host organisation, receives participants from all European countries. Over the last 25 years we gained experiences from more than 1500 projects we realised in different fields of profession.
We develop model projects in the framework of Erasmus and ESF, also in cooperation with small and medium-seized enterprises in the region Leipzig and Halle.
We support the mobility of the participants in the European Community and the communication between people from all over Europe.

All the modules above and below are examples. It’s possible that we will have to modify or adapt them according to the skills of the participants or the capacities of the host company. The tasks and activities vary and depend on the practical and linguistic skills of the beneficiaries and on the needs and business volume of the companies.
