Improving the quality of teacher-training in Israel through an efficient and sustainable mentoring system based on best EU practices.
ABOUT PROMENTORS PROJECT
This is an Erasmus+ three year project that aims to expand the successful MIT models (Multiplayer Induction Team) that was developed in the PROTEACH ERASMUS+ project.
