We suggest you, your employees, and colleagues get the best training experience for your personal and professional growth. Gdoce (G12) training centre is happy to help you with this.

Gdoce is an entity focused on the design and development of training courses, online and on-site, to promote labour inclusion and educational opportunities. The organisation also provides consulting services to companies and public bodies to develop projects. The entity counts on 20 permanent staff (technicians, managers, and administrative staff), along with 40 trainers and teachers, and 600 students. Collaborates with public bodies such as the Galician regional government and local municipalities, but also with educational institutions, associations, SME companies, etc.

The activity of the organisation can be divided in different areas:

  • Training: a great number of courses Gdoce provides are aimed at unemployed people and funded by public entities under the name of professionalization/vocational certificate.
  • Gdoce is an employment agency, working as an intermediary entity to connect employers and workers, and in coordination with the Public Employment Service.
  • Project management: national and European projects, mainly Erasmus+ (KA1 & KA2) and Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs.

We know how to do a good European project and want to teach you!

During the last 10 years, Gdoce have successfully implemented more than 50 local and international projects.

Learning mobility of individuals allows organisations to send pupils, students, trainees, apprentices, adult learners, and young people for training abroad. These activities involve partner organisations with different backgrounds and active in different fields or socio-economic sectors (e.g. traineeships of university students or VET learners in enterprises, NGOs, public bodies; teachers in schools following professional development courses in companies or training centres; business experts giving lectures or training in higher education institutions, etc).

While Mobility project for higher education students and staff welcomes student individuals or groups of any form of studies (short cycle, bachelor, master, and doctoral levels) as well as staff members of the organisations, universities, colleges, etc to do mobility in another country. They can carry out a traineeship in an enterprise, a research institute, a laboratory, an organisation, or any other relevant workplace. This action also supports higher education teaching and administrative staff to take part in professional development activities abroad as well as staff from the world of work to teach and train students or staff at higher education institutions. These activities may consist of teaching as well as training periods (such as job shadowing, observation periods, training courses).

It should last between 6 and 24 months.

Activities to implement:

Project management: activities that are necessary to ensure the adequate planning, implementation, and follow-up of the projects, including smooth and efficient collaboration between project partners. In this phase, activities typically include organisational and administrative tasks, virtual meetings among partners, preparation of communication materials, preparation and follow-up of participants taking part in activities, etc.

Implementation activities: can include networking events, meetings, working sessions to exchange practices and to develop results. These activities may also involve the participation of staff and learners (provided that their participation contributes to the achievement of project objectives).

Sharing and promotion activities: organisation of conferences, sessions, events aimed at sharing, explaining, and promoting the results of the project, whether they are in the form of tangible results, conclusions, good practices, or any other form.
