Cross Sector Virtual Mobility
The Cross Sector Virtual Mobility (CSVM) was selected in 2006, and funded from 1 October 2006 until 30 September 2008 by the European Commission under the Leonardo Da Vinci Programme

Summary
The objective of CSVM was to facilitate distance education students to enter into online working, stimulate their employability, and provide distance educational systems with increased business and market connectivity. The specific aim of the project was to establish a sustainable mechanism for interaction between the business and the distance education sector so as to enhance the inflow of knowledge in distance education and the employability of distance education students on the labour market. A European Web-based Portal, a Clearing House for Virtual Internships, was developed to provide students in distance Higher Education with the possibility to obtain an international learning experience through Virtual Mobility.
Outcomes
The final product of CSVM is a matchmaking portal and service for standardised submission and placement of European Virtual Internship offers for distance Higher Education.
