    Study programs at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Maribor, Slovenia, request practical placements in industry. The length of the placement depends on ... the type of the study program and is for the program of the professional higher education for the engineer technician degree 6 month. Time (in part) and place of placement are student free decision. Either student is organizing the placement in the country or abroad. Program of the European Union (EU) Leonardo da Vinci enables students to go abroad for the placement (mobility projects). While by the academic exchange of students (EU Socrates/Erasmus program) all is running more or less smoothly, for the placements we are still trying to find common way for evaluation, understanding different environments and cultures as well as habits and industrial culture in companies (Leonardo da Vinci pilot projects). In the paper some of those problems are presented through the EU Leonardo da Vinci pilot project ValeurTech which has 35 partners at the Universities, Institutes, Companies and Chamber of Commerce through 8 European countries - Belgian, France, Finland, Greece, Portugal, Rumania, Slovenia and UK. The project is a three year project with two main phases: qualitative and quantitative research. Final goals have to result in e-learning or web available modules to help students, teachers and industrial people by organising placements of engineer technician in different EU countries as well as outside EU.
