U Žmergo je stigla grupa od četvero mladih iz Slovačke koji su za svoju stručnu praksu u sklopu Erasmus+ programa odabrali upravo Žmergo.
Tijekom dva tjedna (9.-20. rujna 2025.) uključit će se u različite aktivnosti kroz koje će stjecati nova znanja i vještine te razvijati kompetencije koje će im koristiti u školovanju kao i budućem profesionalnom radu.
Predstavili su se sami, a pozivamo vas da upoznate ove krasne mlade ljude u opatijskoj avanturi!

Why did I decide to participate in the Erasmus+ program? I wanted to see new places, and learned to understand language.
Why do I think this program is important? Because a lot of people don’t have condition to go somewhere, so Erasmus+ is the only way to see new places, meet people, learn language and have a lot of experiences. You need to be responsible because you need to take care of yourself. So if it’s possible, go!

I find the company very pleasant, and I am excited to see what I will learn there.
What skills or knowledge do you hope to gain during your Erasmus+ internship, and how will it help you in the future? I hope to improve my English and communication skills during my Erasmus+ internship.

This experience will help me in the future by giving me confidence, professional knowledge, and the ability to work in multicultural teams. It will also make me more independent and prepared for new challenges.

What were our expectations before arriving, and how was the arrival? Well, we did not really know what to expect, but after arriving we were pleasantly surprised. The arrival to our company was pretty straightforward, we got to know each other and after that they explained how we will work and what we will be doing.
What skills or knowledge do you hope to gain during your Erasmus+ internship, and how will it help you in the future? I am hoping to gain some work experience, improve my English and the ability to convince people. Work experience will help me get a better job and a better understanding of how everything works. My English is already good, but there is always room for improvement and the better I get the easier it will be for me to work abroad. And lastly the ability to convince people is crucial in Udruga Žmergo, you have to convince people everyday, for them to realise that they don’t want to hurt their planet.
