Abstract

This specific study follows the quantitative methodology approach and seeks to investigate primary education teachers’ perceptions of the skills developed through participation in European mobility programs. It examines whether there is a correlation between the perceptions of the following professional characteristics: knowledge of a foreign language, knowledge of information and communications technology (ICT), and participation in training programs for mobility. The research was conducted in the prefecture of Achaia in May 2023. The convenient sampling technique was applied, and 360 teachers finally completed the electronic questionnaire. Regarding data analysis, descriptive and inductive statistics were applied with the application of IBM SPSS v28 software. The internal consistency reliability for skills development from the European mobility programs is very satisfactory (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.904 > 0.70). Based on the findings of this study, it is shown that teachers recognize, to a very high extent, that they develop precious skills while participating in European mobility programs. Finally, their perceptions are reinforced by specific vocational traits.
