I - Scope

This document defines the rules to follow in requests for institutional visits to Riopele. In this sense, it includes the acceptance criteria for the execution of visits, the associated responsibilities and the conduct that must be adopted by the visiting entity.

II - Acceptance Criteria

1. Students of the textile /clothing sector (secondary and higher education, national and otherwise);;

2. Students in the district of Braga (secondary and higher education);

3. Partners of Riopele;

4. Other entities.

The booking of visits are made by order of receipt of the requests, taking in consideration the availability manifested by Riopele. If more than one request for a visit is registered for a given period, the analysis and decision of the situation is the Management’s responsibility.
