Did you know women are only for 20% represented as it comes to founding companies? And only 15,6% of the (Dutch) people in the TECH world are women?

Time for a change!

In our new project ITs4Women we aim to narrow the gap between technology and women, in close collaboration with our European partners in Spain, Ireland, Sweden and Romania. We will pursue our project’s objectives by building a multifunctional platform for women AND the setup of a regional partnership.

De COVID-19-crisis heeft gezorgd voor een hogere behoefte aan modernisering en digitale transformatie van opleidingssystemen in Europa. CIRCULAR SME SCAN (CSS) koppelt dit aan een circulaire economie, een strategische aanpak voor een groenere economie ter ondersteuning van het Europees economisch herstel. Onderzoek wijst uit, dat circulaire, duurzame, milieu- en klimaatvriendelijke werking van kleine en middelgrote ondernemingen (MKB) resulteert in een groter concurrentievoordeel.

Het belangrijkste doel van CSS, ter ondersteuning van innovatieve praktijken in het digitale tijdperk, is het creëren van een zelfscan- en leerplatform dat het MKB voorziet in vaardigheden aangaande circulaire economie. Deze vaardigheden richten zich op vier belangrijke gebieden binnen circulair MKB; levering-acquisitie, exploitatie-productie, detailhandel en afvalstroom analyse).

 

 

The COVID-19 crisis accelerated the need for modernisation and digital transformation of training systems in Europe. CIRCULAR SME SCAN (CSS) connects this with a circular economy which is a strategic approach to a greener economy in support of European economic recovery. Circular, sustainable, environment-climate friendly operation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) results in their competitive advantage over their rivals.

The main goal of CSS, in support of innovative practices in digital era, aims at creating a self-scan and learning platform that develops SME circular economy skills-competences by focusing on four main areas of entire SME circularity value chain (supply-acquisition, operation-production, retail, waste stream analysis).

The impulse of creativity and innovation (often used as synonyms) is one of the main challenges of society (and, implicitly, education) at the global level and also at European level.

Everyday Creativity aims to increase creativity and innovation in daily school practices in schools in four European countries (Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands and Romania) by providing support and training for teachers to focus on development processes of creative skills, actively involve teachers.

Promote creative practices in schools, identifying and promoting the adoption of creativity promotion methods and measures, with emphasis on the creative environments of the daily school / classroom, provide teachers and students with opportunities to develop their own creativity and involve them in reflection on their own pedagogy and learning strategies.

The project aims to address the challenge toward the improvement of quality assurance mechanism in Vocational Education and Training, most particularly in the field of entrepreneurship education in continuing VET. In order to achieve that the project foresees the application of the European Quality Assurance Reference Framework in this particular sector, it adopts the particular needs of entrepreneurship education, not only at the level of the formal/informal/non formal training, but also for the on the job training path.

The primary objective of IN-QUAL is to present to entrepreneurship education VET providers interested in quality issues a range of instruments, methods and tools they can work with to develop by themselves a quality culture within their organisations.

Ultimately the project wants to bring VET providers to reflect on their quality assurance approaches in comparison to the EQAVET indicative descriptors, and to find out strengths and areas for further development.
