The aim of the FinLat-Logic project is to align parts of the work-based learning (WBL) curricula of VET programs in the field of logistics between Latvia and Finland. As a result, VET students enrolled in logistics programmes in Latvia and Finland will will follow a WBL curricula in logistics-related companies based on each other's country. Thus, it will be possible to align WBL programs via the employers of partecipating companies in both countries. The WBL will also be used as a tool for the alignment.
The project aim will be achieved through the following main steps:1) initial comparing of VET logistics and WBL programmes between the two countries; matching trainees and host companies;2) cross-border WBL of logistics students; monitoring of the workplace learning and feedbacks from logistics companies and trainees;3) finalizing alignment of WBL programs in logistics.
The results of the FinLat-Logic project will be: 1) Aligned parts of WBL programs in logistics between Finland and Latvia corresponding to not less than 10 % of the VET programme in logistics in Latvia and not less than 10 credit points in Finland;
2) A comparative study (survey) on the similarities related to the alignment process of the WBL programme in logistics;3) Cross-border WBL mobilities of 20 VET trainees (10 from LV, 10 from FI) - WBL length between 4 and 8 weeks;4) Joint workshops of VET and workplace tutors of logistics sector to discuss WBL programs and agree on alignment issues;5) Cross-border mobilities and visits to companies of 8-10 VET tutors (4 from LV and 4 from FI);6) The involvement of at least 20 cross-border logistics companies WBL and as participants of project activities.

The project FinLat-logic developed a joint study programme for vocational education in the field of logistics. It harmonized professional education programme of “Logistic Worker” implemented both in Finland and Latvia. As the programme includes strong element of work-based learning, the study programme was developed in close cooperation with representatives from logistic companies. The companies also provided an opportunity for students to do work-based learning across the borders during the project implementation and piloting of the developed study programme.
The project process of aligning vocational education programmes is described in the report "Aligning work-based learning curricula in VET programs of logistics through cross-border WBL in Latvia and Finland".
The developed study programme on “Logistic Worker” includes following modules:
1. Picking and dispatching goods
2.Receipt and storage of goods
3. The Warehouse inventory and survey
4. Receiving and issuing goods in warehouse
