PROJECT DESIGN
BLENDED COURSE FOR PROJECT PROPOSAL
The course is addressed to trainers and teachers, e-facilitators, project managers, researchers and all actors (digital competence centers, SMEs, NGOs, VET providers, universities, public entities etc.) interested in applying for Erasmus+ KA2 Cooperation Partnerships project funding to improve the educational experience and digital skills of adult learners.
The workshop is open to School teachers, VET trainers and Adults’ educators.
METHODOLOGY
This is the 1st blended training on EU proposal writing in Europe with an intensive preparatory phase and actual proposal writing. The course is hands-on and practical: participants will contribute to developing a project proposal and will constantly receive support from expert mentors and tutors. Participants will acquire theoretical knowledge, as well as carry out practical work, gaining valuable experience in project proposals. Divided into smaller groups, they will complete different tasks related to planning and writing a project proposal.
During the training, different tools will be made available by the organizers: work plan for the submission process; project concept note template; detailed work plan template; internal detailed budget template; an online collaboration platform for group work (e.g. Basecamp), etc.
The course is an excellent networking opportunity for participants who want to establish potential partnerships for future applications.
