On Wednesday 28th November the Parque Científico y Tecnológico de Huelva will host the “Getting ready to work abroad” conference in Aljaraque, Huelva.

The workshop, organised by Inercia Digital, with headquarters in Aljaraque and El Rompido, seeks to improve the adaptation to a foreign environment for those who plan to work abroad or find a job overseas. To that end, the conference will introduce the audience to several tools developed during the LAMOS EU project, financed by the European Union and with the involvement of local Huelva-based organisations. Said tools will be especially useful to employers, career advisors and individuals seeking to work abroad. At the end of the session, the tools will be made available to all members of the audience for free.

During the conference various aspects of what working abroad entails will be explored, including the opportunities that different programmes financed by the European Union offer to workers.

Attending the conference is completely free of charge and open to the wider public. The workshop will be hosted on 28th November at the Parque Científico y Tecnológico de Huelva in Calle Caucho 1, 21110, Aljaraque with a kick-off time of 5 p.m.
