Scholarships program for Vocational Training.

The Society of Jesus and Telefonica Foundation share a scholarships program for Vocational Training students. The program has attended 700 students in the Jesuit educational centers.

These scholarships are intended to prepare young people (16-35) in vulnerable situations, for the labor market. The average age of the students is 21 years and the average amount is 500 euros (reaching 1,300 euros sometimes). The scholarship also includes equipment, textbooks, transportation, and even an extra for Erasmus grants.

Between 2014 and 2016 grants have focused on technological degrees: electricity, computers, etc. To communicate these opportunities, they have published "Life Stories". A comic with actual cases of people who wanted to share his life story. The comic talks about the problems of fourteen students to study: family, economics, immigration, gender discrimination... And the overcoming and determination they have shown for a better future for themselves and their families.
