Foreword
We are pleased to present you the fourth edition of Dutch Leonardo da Vinci Partnership projects. In this publication
51 Dutch Partnerships projects that got funded in 2011 present themselves to you.
Leonardo da Vinci Partnerships are small scale projects that foster co-operation activities between schools,
enterprises (in particular SMEs) and social partners in the field of vocational education and training (VET) on
secondary level.
The name ‘partnerships’ shows the importance and added value of cooperation and partnership in these projects.
Working together towards a joint result which can be tangible or intangible.
Partnership projects are very divers and can cover a wide range of topics and results. They are an excellent way
of enabling grass roots peer-learning activities on policy issues in Europe. Partners can work on a specific topic
or theme and visit each other to share experience and good practice. Partnerships can be used as a follow up of a
former Transfer of Innovation project or as a starting point for a first international cooperation project. Each year
many new organisations to the programme get a project funded.
We think that Partnership projects are a valuable addition to the Leonardo da Vinci programme. May this publication
inspire you and let it be an incentive to strengthen co-operation with European partners in the VET field. Please
contact the project leaders if you think that the subject corresponds to your work, ideas, ambitions, etcetera.

1 The Dutch
approach
1.1 Characteristics of partnerships
Partnership projects are ideal for small scale European cooperation, where organisations of at least three countries
work together on a topic. The Dutch National Agency LLP Leonardo da Vinci encourages partnerships to have more
countries represented in a partnership, because it values broad European cooperation. The cooperation should
not only include VET institutions or training providers but also partners from the world of work like enterprises,
chambers of commerce or trade organisations. They can cooperate at national, regional or local level, but also at
sector level, such as within VET-fields or economic sectors.
The outcomes of a partnership project must allow use of the results after the project is finished. Results can be
tangible: an instrument, a handbook or website etcetera or descriptive: a report, a conference, or a network.
The projects are small scale compared to the Leonardo da Vinci Transfer of Innovation (TOI) projects that demand
large scale cooperation and a big common budget. A partnership can be used as a first step towards a TOI project.
However, the project should always have a value and results, even if it does not lead to a TOI project!
On the hand, compared to Leonardo da Vinci mobility projects for professionals in VET, that are usually bi-lateral,
partnerships have a stronger emphasis on the common results and involve a bigger number of countries.
Trainees, students and other learners can be involved in partnerships. Their participation should contribute to
the project results, for example by testing a method, helping in developing etcetera. In this respect, partnership
projects differ from Leonardo da Vinci mobility projects (for IVT), where the individual learning experience is the
most important goal of trainees going abroad.
In a partnership project, partners receive a more modest budget as a lump sum, each from their own National
Agency. Activities in a partnership project take place at two levels: on European project level, especially during
the meetings and on the level of the individual organisation, typically between the meetings. The results at both
levels are valued by the Dutch NA and will be assessed by experts at the end of the project.

1.2
Aims and objectives – topics for cooperation
The aims of the partnerships projects follow both the objectives of the Leonardo da Vinci sub programme and the
objectives of European cooperation in Vocational Education and Training (VET). The latter is known as the Copenhagen
Process, a two yearly policy making cycle in Europe. The latest update was agreed on under the Belgium presidency
in 2010, where the ministers of education issued the Bruges Communiqué, which contains excellent topics for
cooperation in partnerships.
The Bruges Communiqué presents a vision of a modern and attractive vocational training system which ensures:
•
maximum access to lifelong learning so that people have opportunities to learn at any stage in life and
by making routes into education and training more open and flexible;
•
more opportunities for experience and training abroad to boost language skills, self-confidence and
adaptability;
•
higher quality courses, providing the right skills for specific jobs;
•
more inclusion and access for disadvantaged people;
•
creative, innovative and entrepreneurial thinking.
The Bruges Communiqué includes a mid-term plan aimed at encouraging concrete measures at national level and
support at European level for the years 2011-2014. This calls for countries to:
•
review the use of incentives, rights and obligations to encourage more people to take up training;
•
implement the 2009 recommendation on quality assurance in vocational training;
•
encourage the development of vocational schools, with the support of local and regional authorities; •
introduce internationalisation strategies to boost international mobility;
•
increase cooperation with business to ensure training is relevant, for instance by giving teachers the possibility of practical training in companies;
•
launch communication strategies to highlight the benefits of vocational training.
Examples of topics:
The list below of examples of topics that could be covered within Leonardo partnership projects is based on
the Bruges communiqué reflecting present priority topics in common VET policy for example.
Actions at national level:
•
organise activities aimed at promoting VET attractiveness and excellence, which may include campaigns
and skills competitions;
•
support activities, which enable young pupils in compulsory education to become acquainted with
vocational trades and career possibilities;
•
take adequate measures to implement the EQAVET Recommendation and make progress towards national
quality assurance frameworks for VET;
•
as appropriate, ensure that key competences and career management skills are adequately integrated in
I-VET curricula and that they can be acquired through training opportunities in CVET;
•
governments, social partners and VET providers should make the necessary arrangements to:
- maximise work-based learning, including apprenticeships, in order to contribute to increasing the number of apprentices in Europe by 2012;
- create opportunities for enhanced cooperation between VET institutions and enterprises (profit and
non-profit), for example through traineeships for teachers in enterprises;
- provide VET institutions with feedback on the employability of VET graduates.
•
pursue work on setting-up monitoring systems on transitions from learning to work.
Support at European level:
•
policy document on the role of vocational excellence for smart and sustainable growth;
•
consider European support for VET promotion campaigns, including Eurobarometer on VET attractiveness;
•
encourage skills competitions at European and/or global levels;
•
guidance and technical support for EQAVET implementation;
•
review the implementation of EQAVET at national level in 2013;
•
thematic networking of Quality Assurance projects within the Leonardo da Vinci programme;
•
vademecum/study on successful work-based learning models (with input from Cedefop);
•
strengthen the anticipation of skills and competences development, notably through skills forecasts
(Cedefop) and by setting up European Skills Councils;
•
•
•
12
1 The Dutch approach
develop a common language aimed at bridging the world of education & training and the world of work
(ESCO), consistent with other EU instruments, such as the EQF;
consider the adoption of an EU benchmark for employability on the basis of a Commission proposal;
work on best practices and guiding principles with respect to the changing profiles of VET teachers and
trainers (together with Cedefop).

agriculture
2011-1-NL1-LEO04-05066
Summary
In the agricultural sector entrepreneurs face new challenges if they would like to diversify their enterprise in order to
maintain a certain level of welfare (income). Especially agriculture entrepreneurs in remote areas (often with smaller farms)
have to focus on additional products/markets. Some of them prefer to include new (non-agricultural) activities in their
company: farm bed-end-breakfast, outdoor activities, sports, exhibitions, (farm) excursions, wellness, museum, mini-camping,
education (biology, flowers, small live stock), horse riding, homecare for the elderly or for disadvantaged people. In the
modern literature this is called: multifunctional agriculture. All these activities focus on strengthening the agricultural
sector and the regional economy, in order to fight unemployabilty and prevent youngsters from moving to other regions.
The partnership would like to do research and disseminate best practices. Partners carry out field and desk research about
national or regional initiatives, national regulations, and compose a ‘green-book’ with suggestions for authorities and for
schools, how to cope with this new phenomena and with examples of best practices. All activities will be focused on professional education and training: the possibilities of vocational education to (re-)educate or prepare/train students and adult
learners (employees and the new entrepreneurs) for the new era, with suggestions for adaptation of existing curriculums
or a new curriculum (EU level 3-4, including the ECVET framework), focussed on diversifying the agriculture sector. This
includes the partnership also has to pay attention to modules (new) entrepreneurship in the agricultural sector (business
plans, customer service/hospitality, marketing, leisure activities).
Objectives
The partnership intents to compare curricula for education in agriculture, business and tourisme (leisure) in order to compose
suggestions for additonal training modules for business schools, tourism schools and agriculture schools in a ‘green book’.
The partnership plans to include the ECVET system in the suggestions for the existing and new training modules, focused
on multifunctional agriculture (Agri tourism). Because all partners operate in remote disadvantaged regions with more
unemployability than the national average, it is important to increase co-operation and develop (innovative) practices in
the field of vocational education and training. When the schools, in close cooperation with other stakeholders, manage
to strengthen the regional economic sector, youngsters will no longer leave the region in order to find a job in big(ger)
cities. In the AGRO-tourism sector, almost all that is achieved, is achieved by informal learning. The partnership plans to
include in the ‘greenbook’ the experiences of non formal learning in order to include those practices in formal learning
system, by dissemination of best practices.

AGRI TOURISM, multifunctional agriculture
All European countries face the same problem: how to upgrade the agriculture sector, in the framework of the new society:
environmental friendly developments and support of this sector, diversifying their activities. Do the European countries
have to subsidize farmers in order to survive and to produce enough food, or can (offer) other ways be found to support
the sector in order to earn enough money by entrepreneurs, to survive, without damaging the natural landscape/environment.
Therefore the European countries needs new entrepreneurial skills in the agricultural sector; entrepreneurs with a new
vision, with modern ideas for sustainable development. Dissemination of ideas (best practices) already developed in some
European coutries, to other countries, focused on entrepreneurs in the agriculture sector in distant/remote areas and
suggestions for a common professional training curriculum Agri Tourism, based on already existing and/or new training
modules in order to train future employees and entrepreneurs, with new visions on development of the agriculture sector.

Re-developing the
international education
European Master in
Floral Design as an
effective driver of
cooperation of
employers and the
educational field
2011-1-NL1-LEO04-05039
Summary
Main aim of the partnership is to (re)develop a top-level competence based education: the European Master in Floral Design
for qualified florists. This education is to be executed in FLORNETs’ competence centres and recognized by FLORINT, the
European representative of the flower retail branch. The EMFD was developed some ten years ago, in order to give a strong
stimulus to the development of vocational training in floristry and thus ensure and improve the market position of the florist,
especially the floral designer. The actual situation urgently asks for a renovation and rebirth of this top-level training.
The FLORNET centres of excellence, having developed dedicated short courses on themes, relevant for the scope of the
EMFD, create a unique opportunity to combine both initiatives and create a sure win-win situation. Using these courses/
modules for the EMFD will create more labour market relevance of the educational content of these modules. It will lead
to the development of international key competences. It will give more attractiveness to these modules by adding the
perspective of a top-level European diploma. The modules involved will be rebased on principles of competence based
learning in authentic critical learning situations.
Objectives
The project will give a strong stimulus to the students’ mobility and teachers’ exchange between the 30 vocational colleges.
Thus contributing to the strategic priorities mentioned in the mobility programmes of all FLORNET members to strengthen
the European dimension and improve the significance of floral education and support sectoral developments in Europe.
In order to achieve a structural cooperation of the industry and the education field in floristry a partnership floristry
education – industry on European level will be installed; the existing dialogue between FLORNET (education) and FLORINT
(industry) will be formed into a structural co-operation between the industry / employers organisations and the educational
institutes. FLORINT and FLORNET so far co-operate informally, exchanging ideas, views and information during meetings of
a common taskforce. The mutual trust has grown, but this basis for cooperation has to be strengthened and given a more
permanent structure to ensure continuation. This is done by using the common working on specific goals, like the renewal
of the European Master diploma, as drivers of this development.
European Added Value
Facilitating the development of innovative practices in the field of VET is implicitly incorporated in this project. As the various
standardized qualifications offered by FLORNET schools are at stake and will be discussed, industry in floristry as well as
staff members of training centres will develop insight into other teaching methods, cultural differences etc. Competence
based education is not yet widely spread. It is however the basis for the development of the new EMFD, thus the colleges
will take up the development of CBE, which implicates that CBE will be implemented in all countries involved as an innovative
practice. The approach of FLORNET’s centres of excellence is innovative as such and will be further disseminated during
this project.

Improving the transparency and recognition of qualifications and competences clearly is at stake as different educational
systems and pedagogies of the countries involved need to be compared to get sufficient insights for the process of redefining
the various FLORNET modules on the basis of CBE. Representatives of the industry and staff members of the educational
institutes meet to get insight and compare similarities and differences. The common framework of the CBE-based EMFD
will create and improve transparency and harmonisation. Implicitly it will lead to further recognition of the qualifications
and competences in floristry education in Europe.

The New
Generation
2011-1-NL1-LEO04-05059
Summary
The Partnership is a project of six European countries to make an inventory of ‘The New Generation’ (TNG) with professionals
(schools, experts/social scientists, pupils and the labour market) to share best practices on four specific topics. With
The New Generation we mean youngsters born after 1985 and brought up in ‘the information society’, characterized by
technological developments and new media.
The main question of this partnership is:
The New Generation: how can we train professionals- in the educational field and youth work- so, that they get a better access
to the world of youngsters?
By this, professionals are able to improve their competence of triggering and motivating youngsters and this will contribute
to the prevention of early school leaving and therefore improve access to the labour market.
The four topics are:
Communication of teachers and students (how we see each other),
1.
Social Media (how to use in education),
2.
Social Participation in school,
3.
Great future (expectations of schools, students and companies: match or mismatch?).
4.
In this partnership learners of The New Generation play an important role in the workshops (in the meetings). So it’s not only
a partnerships with professionals about The New Generation, but a partnership with direct involvement of The New Generation.
Objectives
There is a need for a good overview of The New Generation in a European context. What characterize this new generation?
We want to investigate if there is a correlation between early school leaving and the quality of communication and the
pedagogical approach in schools. We also want to get a clear picture of how professionals in youth work deal with The
New Generation.

The New Generation
European Added Value
In the paper ‘A renewed European strategy to invest in youngsters’ (Ad. 14, 15, 16, 17, 18), The Committee of the Regions
pleads for a closer European cooperation on youth policy, such as education and social inclusion. They especially emphasize
the need for better education and training and integration in the world of work. The perspective and opinion of youngsters
should be taken into account with all strategies and activities.
Youth policy has an intrinsic broad dimension. Attempts to organise policy cooperation on a European level, are still quite
recent. With this attempts, there should continually build on regional and local insights.
In this project, we contribute to further cooperation on a European level concerning youth in a broader context, by networking
with local, national and European experts, teachers and professionals. We share knowledge and experience with partners
regarding working with youngsters from The New Generation.
Our ambition for the future is to continue the cooperation on this subject in a Leonardo da Vinci ToI project, focussing
on teacher training.

Summary
Educational institutes of The Netherlands, Italy, Germany and Northern Ireland will collaborate to develop a concept of
proof for setting up work project for youngsters with a (learning) disability as part of the transition of the learners from
school to work.
Objectives
The vocational training of learners with special needs asks a constant development of new approaches aiming at the improvement of prospects of the targetgroup on sustainable jobs. Collaboration on a European level offers the opportunity
to look at similar problems from different angels. This will lead to more effective and efficient methods for preparing the
learners for the labor market.
European Added Value
Inclusion of people with a disability is one of the key issues within the European countries. The Madrid Declaration (2003)
has been the fundament for current policy in all European Member States. This Partnership is fully in line with this policy.
By collaborating with institutes of four European countries we also give professionals the opportunity to look at their
work from an European Perspective.
The Partners will look at the possibility to set up a network of institutes involved in the vocational training of learners
with special needs on a European level.
For learners it will mean that they can profit of the insights and improvements based on shared European expertise and
good practices.

European Master in

cooperation of
employers and the
Summary
Main aim of the partnership is to (re)develop a top-level competence based education (the European Master in
Floral Design) for qualified florists, executed in FLORNETs’ competence centres and recognized by FLORINT, the
European representative of the flower retail branch. The EMFD was developed some ten years ago, in order to give
a strong stimulus to the development of vocational training in floristry and thus ensure and improve the marketposition of the florist, especially the floral designer. Originally successful, but the actual situation urgently asks
for a rebirth of this top-level training.
The FLORNET centres of excellence having developed dedicated short courses on themes, relevant for the scope
of the EMFD, creates a unique opportunity to combine both initiatives and create a sure win-win situation. Using
these courses / modules for the EMFD will create more labour market relevance of the educational content of
these modules. It will lead to the development of international key competences. It will give more attractiveness
to these modules by adding the perspective of a top-level European diploma. The modules involved will be rebased
on principles of competence based learning in authentic critical learning situations.
In order to do so a partnership floristry education – industry on European level will be installed; the existing dialogue
between FLORNET (education) and FLORINT (industry) will be formed into a structural co-operation between the
industry / employers organisations and the educational institutes. This cooperative project will largely improve
the return on investment of two former Leonardo da Vinci projects by combining products, knowledge and experience
gained to redesign and redevelop a functioning top-level European Education for florists.

FI Summary
In this project agri- and horticultural schools will work as partners to learn new aspects on different topics of
sustainable development and how waste management in the schools and school areas is organized. This will be
realized before, during and after four study visits of the teachers and students, who participate in this project
(two teachers and six students/study visit from each school). For every study visit the partner schools have chosen
different topics they work on. Local companies are involved in this project as silent partners.
In the partner schools sustainable development is part of their students’ studies. The theoretical background for
the certain topics chosen for each study visit the student will get tasks, in their own classroom during normal
lessons or at home, before travelling abroad. After this preparation, during the study visit to the partner school,
the student groups from different countries see what sustainable development means in practice and how it can
be taken into account in schools and practical working life or companies in a foreign country. The students also
understand how they can take into account sustainable development and the different areas of it in companies
where they are working after their graduation.
Partners want to realize this project because sustainable development and sustainable growth is an important
issue both in vocational education, school areas and in the working life, especially in the near future. Both the
staff and the students of partner schools need more practical information and skills concerning these issues.
Study visits to foreign countries and related project work are seen as tools to compare and share this information
and deepen the theoretical background knowledge.

Vocational
Training
for Outdoor
Arts
Summary
This partnership project is to develop European best practice in vocational training in the field of professional
Outdoor Arts. The project aims to increase employability of both creative and administrative practitioners currently
working in the sector and to address barriers to employment for those entering the sector. The project will combine
training activities and professional exchange aimed at achieving these aims directly with target groups and also
draw from the partnership’s collaboration to develop and disseminate new approaches to vocational training that
can be used in future practice by partners and more widely across the sector.
Outdoor Arts is a fast-growing cultural industry in Europe employing an increasing number of practitioners every
year. Entry into this field of employment is largely by informal routes and both commercial practitioners and public/
national bodies have identified the need to develop more opportunities for vocational training – both formal and
informal - that can be delivered by both non-commercial bodies supporting the sector, commercial practitioners
themselves and partnerships between the two. This partnership brings together commercial practitioners and
publicly-funded non-commercial bodies to share skills, perspectives and methodologies in order to achieve this.

2011-1-PT1-LEO04-08499
PT Summary
The goal of this project is to identify the basic guidelines and contents for the training of outreach workers (OW)
on harm reduction (HR). Through sharing experiences about HR and outreach work profile in the European context,
we intend to create a great impact on the professional development of the OW and on HR itself.
All over the world HR has gained particular relevance in the intervention on vulnerable and social excluded populations
that engage in risk behaviours like drug use or sex work, reducing health and social harms and promoting social
inclusion and citizenship. Although, HR background, lead it to a certain arbitrariness, especially regarding its
intervention figures and its trainning. The definition and principals of HR don’t have the same echo in the forms
of doing HR and its activities, in national and European contexts. The absence of common guidelines for the HR
job, particularly for outreach work, is one of the topics that, in the actual moment, has to be discussed and addressed
by the National, European and International policies on harm reduction. The HR workers/figures, the OW, face a
sum of exigencies on the development of their career, which demand special training for a greater impact on the
harm reduction outcomes/results. The lack of these kind of guidelines and training contents contributes to the
vulnerability of OW (and HR), which have to continuously fight for their social and labour recognition of their
important role. Therefore, its this project aim to contribute to the first step on the process of professionalization
of OW, by involving major HR European organisations and networks on the development of a training manual for
outreach workers on harm reduction.

Summary
2011-1-NL1-LEO04-05066
The partnership would like to do research and disseminate best practices. Partners carry out field and desk research about national or regional initiatives, national regulations, and compose a ‘green-book’ with suggestions
for authorities and for schools, how to cope with this new phenomena and with examples of best practices. All
activities will be focussed on professional education and training: the possibilities of vocational education to
(re-)educate or prepare/train students and adult learners (employees and the new entrepreneurs) for the new era,
with suggestions for adaptation of existing curriculums or a new curriculum (EU level 3-4, including the ECVET
framework), focussed on diversifying the agriculture sector. This includes the partnership also has to pay attention
to modules (new) entrepreneurship in the agricultural sector (business plans, customer service/hospitality, marketing,
leisure activities).
NL In the agricultural sector entrepreneurs face new challenges if they would like to diversify their enterprise in
order to maintain a certain level of welfare (income). Especially agriculture entrepreneurs in remote areas (often
with smaller farms) have to focus on additional products/markets. Some of them prefer to include new (non-agricultural)
activities in their company: farm bed-end-breakfast, outdoor activities, sports, exhibitions, (farm) excursions,
wellness, museum, mini-camping, education (biology, flowers, small live stock), horse riding, homecare for the
elderly or for disadvantaged people. In the modern literature this is called: Multifunctional Agriculture. All these
activities focus on strengthening the agricultural sector and the regional economy, in order to fight unemployabilty
and prevent youngsters from moving to other regions

COPCHAVET:
Coping with
CHAllenges in
Vocational Education
and Training
2011-1-PL1-LEO04-19545
Summary
The COPCHAVET partnership has its roots in the previous CHAVET project, promoted by twelve national EUROPEA
associations (networks of green VET institutions). CHAVET resulted in a thorough mapping of the consequences
for green VET of recent changes related to climate, youth culture, new technology and consumer expectations.
Important conclusions have been drawn in collaboration with entrepreneurs, students, consumers and teachers
but still further steps are needed in order to prepare green VET schools for the future.
COPCHAVET will:
enlarge greatly the number of EUROPEA associations involved;
1). update information;
2). (the most important) create practical tools in order to equip schools to adapt for the future. This work
3). will be done in close collaboration with major stakeholders such as farm enterprises, industry, students and their families.
The structure developed by CHAVET will be used as it has demonstrated its ot hat hand robustness. International
events with participation of teachers, students, professionals and entrepreneurs at all levels will be carried out.
To develop the tools, each country will contribute national information and participate in multilateral workshops
ot hat purpose. Every partner will have agreed tasks in the partnership.
Results will be collected at www.europea.org and disseminated by the all national EUROPEA associations. Thus,
COPCHAVET will become a learning community to integrate the European dimension into training activities,
exchange good practice and help to enlarge and strengthen EUROPEA by means of cooperation. Policy makers from
local to European levels will be informed of changes and demands in the green sector.

Training the
Change Agents:
a programme
for educational
leaders and
experts in the
field of special
educational
needs
Summary
The first aim of the project is to enhance internationalisation of institutions offering vocational training in terms
of in-service training and further education. The second aim is to share experience on special needs education
and school leadership in Europe.
The project targets a mixed group of professionals: teacher trainers, teachers, coordinators, school leaders and
local authority representatives who are to support and sustain youngsters into the world of employability; they
are change agents. As a part of their ongoing courses or further studies the participants will be invited to take
part in study visits arranged by the partner institutions. For each visit the partners are invited to send a small
group of learners and teacher trainers thus establishing a multilateral visiting group. Observations made and data
collected during the study visits will form the basis of the participants' assignments or portfolios to be delivered
to the course/study provider. All partners will host at least one study visit. The groups will visit local schools and
organisations.
The learners and the teacher trainers taking part in the study visits will add a European perspective to their
studies and to their daily work. They get to know other ways of solving problems which are common in Europe.
During the study trips multilateral problems will be discussed from various national point of views. Furthermore
the participants can use their study group networks for future European cooperation projects. Institutions providing
further studies and in-service training for teachers and school leaders are in general not internaternationalised.
Study visits for learners including exchanges of teacher trainers will form the first steps in the internationalisation
proces.

The New
Generation
2011-1-NL1-LEO04-05059
Summary
The Partnership is a project of six European countries to inventarise ‘The New Generation’ with professionals
(schools, experts/social scientists, pupils and the labourmarket) to share best practices on four specific topics.
The main question is:
The new generation: How can we train professionals- in the educational field and youth work- so, that they get a
better acces to the ‘world’ of youngsters?
By this professionals are able to improve their competence of triggering and motivating youngsters and this will
contribute to the prevention of early school leaving and therefore improve acces to the labour market.
The four topics are:
Communication of teachers and students (how we see each other);
1. Social Media (how to use in education);
2.
Social Participation in school;
3.
Great future (expectations of schools, students and companies).

vocational classroom
2011-1-GB2-LEO04-05416
Summary
‘Excellence in teaching is the single most powerful influence on achievement.’ (Hattie, 2003)
The aim of this partnership is to provide innovative solutions to improving the quality of teaching and learning
mathematics through a European approach.
The production of a ‘Resource Toolkit for Teaching Mathematics’ will provide learning materials for effective
professional development of teachers in member states, thereby supporting the improvement of teaching and the
delivery of mathematics to vocational students.
The toolkit will be evidence-based and developed from the combination of expertise, knowledge and understanding
of the partners. Existing best practice at local level will be identified, explored, adapted and improved to form
the basis of the toolkit which may then be used across Europe. The final toolkit will be published on the web-based
learning platform hosted by LSDA NI http://thetlc.org.uk/ as well as on partners’ websites.
Innovative policies, initiatives and practice in the professional development of teachers will be shared and explored
in order to develop an agreed qualification with European currency and contributing to a distinctive European
dimension of teacher training.
The project has selected partners from different backgrounds who share the same aspirations for excellence in the
teaching of mathematics. Participating organisations are from Scotland, Finland, The Netherlands and Denmark
enabling specialist, cultural and social perspectives to the partnership. Each partner is involved in different aspects of teacher development and is from one of the high performing education systems internationally as measured
by the OECD PISA 2006. This rich mix of expertise and experience will serve to enhance the project.

Creating a
framework
for training
on electric
bicycles in
Europe
Summary
At the end of the 1990’s, the electric bike was launched on the market in Europe. It became more and more popular
with about 750,000 sales in 2009 and an estimated 1,000,000 sales throughout Europe in 2010. The electric
bike assures mobility of elderly people and people with health problems however car drivers, parents, shoppers,
tourists are also attracted to it.
Using the electric bike has its positive effects on mobility, health and environment. It makes you drive longer
distances, leads to a healthy/healthier body weight and helps to decrease CO2 emissions. As the electric bike has
enormous potential in the European Union, dealers, manufacturers, importers and bicycle repairers play a crucial
role in informing people on electric bicycles and persuading them of the advantages of this innovation.
Nowadays, there is dissatisfaction amongst e-bike users related to range, performance, weight, price, servicing
and repair costs. To avoid this dissatisfaction, the products and their range need ot h diversified following the
different user categories. Dealers and bike repairers should be able to advise the client on the most appropriate
type of e-bike. ot hat hand s ot h optimally informed not only on the actual range of their vehicle but also on
how to manage their energy use and charging batteries. Consumers should be informed on the characteristics of
the vehicles as well as on the related price and quality ratio. Currently, dealers, importers and bike repairers lack
knowledge and expertise to provide the above mentioned service ot hat (potential) clients. In this partnership
project the partners will work on this issue by providing state-of-the-art training on e-bikes for dealers and bike
repairers.

OPEP: From
Occupational
Profiles to
Educational
programs and
Curricula
Summary
In these times of economic depression and worrying high unemployment, most European countries make use of
the so-called occupational standards to couple education with the labour market. This increases the employability
of people and helps closing the gap between offer and demand on the labour market.
This project focuses on opportunities and strengths of methods from different countries, in transforming occupational
profiles to educational and training curricula and programs. Although a growing number of European countries are
using occupational standards, the mechanisms and methods to link training programs and qualifications to these
standards, vary from country to country. The lack of a common European approach, due to different vocational
training systems is a weakness and exactly this is the starting point of this project: Using existing cases in the
different countries of our network in order to develop the basic outlines for an ECVET based method.
The objective of OPEP is to work in a partnership, exchanging knowledge and experiences, on the basic outlines
in translating an occupational profile to an educational training program, using the ECVET principles and leading
to a common memorandum of understanding at European level in our network.
Within the project six workshop-meetings will take place to enable the partnership to work together on the subject
and to carry out concrete activities. During the workshop-meetings best practices of concrete examples on
converting an occupational profile on ECVET based methods are exploited for the development of common quality
criteria and common guidelines.
The aspiration of OPEP is to use the results to set up a bigger future European project.

Summary
‘Client’s Right to Safe Care and Nursing’ is a partnership in which participating students and teachers focus on
selected key competences that are included in curricula of colleges’ qualifications. The partnership consists of four
social and health care colleges, training professionals for care work and nursing. (Finland, Germany, Belgium and
The Netherlands)
The key competences are broken into four working themes:
1)
aseptic working;
ergonomy, work safety, aids and accessories;
2)
communication, respectful and emphatic care for clients;
3)
assisting clients in activities of daily life (ADL).
4)
Each partner college is responsible for the organisation of a collaborative international workshop week, around
one of the key competences. Per country, a group consisting of students and teachers, will attend this workshop
week. Prior to this week abroad, participants have to prepare assignments around one of the themes.
The prior-to-workshop learning process at colleges focuses on building up presentations on nationally viewed
essential skills and knowledge related to the theme of upcoming workshop. This is all done under guidance of teachers.
During the workshop week students give presentations on the theme, in which they share their knowledge, skills
and national view. The international group of participants will elaborate the theme into more practical topics.
These chosen topics will be monitored and observed during two job-shadowing days at different placement addresses.
The workshops end with building up a summary over experiences and observations dealt during the week, all of
this under supervision of teachers.
The communication, instructing and necessary assignments are processed on IT/web-based learning platform
Fronter. Innovation of the partnership lies within collaborative learning process of different countries’ students .
The collaborative learning: students process together each theme prior-to and during workshop.

Transparency Instruments
in Education and Labour
Market Policy
2011-1-AT1-LEO04-05051
Summary
Transparency instruments in vocational education such as EQF/NQF and Europass aim to foster the mobility in the
labour market and to make education systems comparable in Europe. Still there are difficulties in the use of such
instruments and their actual acknowledgement in real life. Often people do not know these instruments or the
benefit of using them. On the other hand also the labour market policy does not fully integrate the transparency
instruments in the daily work.
The idea of this Leonardo da Vinci partnership is to provide a clear overview of transparency instruments used in
education and how they are acknowledged in practice in the labour market policy. Thereby the different instruments
will be analysed according to their customer orientation, their national values and their importance for the
labour market.
The project aims to produce results of benefit for people in vocational education, in the labour market and for
representatives of this sector such as job counsellors, people working in career centres or employment services.
Beside the development of material the project will improve the awareness level of transparency instruments but
also the mobility in the labour market. The added value of the partnership is the close cooperation and exchange
between vocational eduction, labour market and the economic sector.

Guidance
2011-1-IT1-LEO04-01785
Summary
The European guidance systems are undergoing some changes that move on from the traditional idea of guidance
(interventions linked to moments of major decision making in people’s lives), to lifelong guidance (services to
face different needs, according to the specific moment in life and vocational experiences of a person).
Guidance is also very important during a period of crisis that changes and transforms the organization of the
labour market as well as the strategies of the intervention policies.
As regards younger people, it is necessary to start from temporary employment paths that are typical when entering
the labour market, building ways to recover past experiences and career resilience also through mobility in other
countries.
As regards adult workers, it is necessary to offer them counselling according to the skills they have and don’t
have, but that they could achieve thanks to a mix of training and work.
It is necessary to overcome the common place that adult workers are at the end of their career, favour individual
support and enhance the skills acquired, delay one’s exit from the labour market and plan further career developments.
This is where the project starts from and it identifies the following general goals:
•
a major qualification of guidance experts (by getting to know systems and best practices of other countries);
•
an improvement of the systems, especially an improvement of the quality of services (through the
knowledge and transfer/adaptation of best practices).
In order to achieve the general and operational goals, mobility of guidance experts will be very important and
will foresee the presentation of scenarios and experiences in each country that will be discussed and finally
re-processed for the definition of a shared Lifelong Guidance model.

Vocational
Education
Summary
This partnership is intended to create a cooperation network of organisations between those designing vocational
courses for the music industry, those delivering vocational training to the music industry and those working in
the music industry itself. The partners have been carefully selected based on the expertise of each partner, the
wide coverage of Europe and the representation of the whole vocational education chain from design to delivery
and work, in order that the partnership will be successful in its aims.
The partnership will explore the value of both innovative media (new) and music heritage (old) to vocational
education. In the first strand of the project, partners will transfer knowledge about the target group’s (employees
in the music industry) current increasing need for media skills and the vocational education provision for these.
In the second strand, partners will discuss the use of music heritage in vocational education to cross cultural
barriers whilst restoring civic pride. Though this could be applied across many vocational education courses, this
partnership will consider only those courses relating to the music industry in order to keep a realistic scope. The
target group here is both those delivering training and the trainees.
The activities will consist of consultations with trainees in the music industry and their employers; exchange
visits between partners; development of the results and dissemination activities. The partnership will address the
Leonardo da Vinci priorities of supporting improvements in innovation in vocational training practices and
enhancing the attractiveness of vocational training to those in the music industry through responding to the
needs of the labour market and creating closer links between vocational education and training and working life.

Euro
Job
Coach
Summary
The ambition of this project called ‘Euro Job Coach’ is to set a suitable training program for a profession that has
recently appeared in all the participant’s countries: the ‘social job coach’.
The ‘social job coach’ is the person that promotes the employment of those who are facing difficulties in finding
a job on the labor market (e.g. people with disabilities, senior citizens, women, young people with no qualifications,
people with disabilities, immigrants) monitoring professional integration and providing individual support in the
working places.
The need of this project lies on the difficulties experienced by each European partner of the project to train and
specialize their ‘social job coaches’. Moreover, nowadays, there is a real lack of specific training program for such
a profession in the participant’s countries.
All the partner organizations work in the employment and/or vocational training sector. By working together the
partners will develop a ‘social job coach’ training toolkit by working on best practices, most effective tools, case
studies, achievements and personal experiences. This would help to find practical solutions for employment of
people from disadvantaged groups in the labor markets hit by the economic crisis or in which major socio-cultural
changes have taken place.

Concept of Code
of Good Organic
Retailing Practice
2011-1-DE2-LEO04-07934
DE Summary
Facing all the problems caused by globalization, financial crises and economical and social deregulations, doing
business based on ethical standards is becoming more and more important. The organic food umbrella organizations
and individual companies have recently realized that organic regulations and certification alone are not enough
to assure the needed integrity and authenticity of organic products and businesses on today’s market. Therefore
important stakeholders of the organic trade have started to develop a ‘Code of Good Organic Practice’. The intention
of this self-assessment Code is to establish and later implement the following seven principles in the organic
food supply chain: social responsibility, involvement in business chain, sustainable pricing and relationships,
transparency, open communication, harmonized business chain system and quality management.
The aim of this Partnership project is to create a concept for training of managers and employees in the organic
food retail branch in order to implement the above stated principles of the Code into daily practice and thus
establish a fully transparent and ethical supply chain, from “farm to fork” – from the producers up to the end
consumers. Taking part in such training will help managers and staff of organic food retailers to improve their
knowledge and competences in sustainability issues, active environmental protection, social competence and
costumer orientation. The Partnership aims to develop first suggestions for the transfer and promotion of the
Code and the regarding training concept both in the specialized organic food retail sector as well as in the non-organic
retail sector, where most of organic food purchases happen today in the European member states.

DE Summary
The consequences of (long-term) unemployment are often passive behavior, isolation and low self-esteem. As
result, we often see the situation that unemployed people at some moment lose faith in themselves, their future
and the society. Following a number of unsuccessful attempts to get a job, they have lost hope, motivation and
initiative and are no longer willing to take on any further efforts to get a job. At the same time initiatives,
entrepreneurial skills and intercultural competences are getting increasingly important in today’s workplace. The
sense of initiative and entrepreneurship is the ability to turn ideas into action. It involves creativity, innovation
and risk-taking, as well as the ability to plan and manage projects in order to achieve objectives. Together with a
healthy self-esteem these abilities are prerequisites for integration into work and vocational training.
The Partnership is focused on the topic strengthening entrepreneurial skills and intercultural competences within
the group of unemployed people. There is a long experience that Entrepreneurship workshops (‘learning by doing’)
– if done the right way – can be very motivational and help people to find their own strengths and life goals.
This can also be called a form of ‘Life design’. The goal is NOT primarily to get people to start their own businesses,
but also to help them to find out own interests and to develop motivation to start studying again or to find ways
to get a new job. In addition to teaching and strengthening the entrepreneurial skills within the group of unemployed,
the partners will work out appropriate methods to promote intercultural competences. The material can be used
in trainings and job placement for Unemployed and will be published in a practical guide (CD).

of Good Practices at
VET Schools
2011-1-TR1-LEO04-24227
TR Summary
Educational institutions, which provide vocational education services or courses, are the first model or pilot of
real life labour market and their main interest is to give best skills and knowledge to the learners, in order to
prepare them for the future labour market. Additionally, the main aim for employers is to employ qualified people
with professional skills and competence. For this reason, the project ‘Co-SAFE’ will focus on raising awareness and
knowledge of target group such as administrators, trainers, trainees and teachers who are concerned with this field.
The project mainly concentrates on comparison of VET systems and practices, Occupational Health and Safety
(OHS) trainings and implementations at institutions which provide VET services and European policies related to
the topic in participant countries. The aim of cooperation among participant countries is to increase knowledge
of not only for the project participants, but also the other parties of VET institutions. Therefore, we seek wider
collaboration with other institutions and cascade methodology effect which is always aimed of the wider usage of
the results and stringer benefit. In this respect, the project outputs are: a guideline of training on OHS considering
the European standards, a report for decision makers, a booklet for VET administrators and trainers and visual
material for students about possible OHS accidents and diseases.
All products and activities will be presented in a special album documenting the project course. What is more, the
effects of our cooperation will be edited and published in English and – if necessary - also in partners’ national
languages in forms of brochures, project platform and multimedia files. The Leonardo da Vinci programme will
also be promoted among local community using media and other dissemination and exploitation ways.

DE Summary
The project strives for a common approach in vocational training of hairdressers and the establishment of a
common final examination in the region of the Euregio Maas-Rhine (EMR). It aims at developing a tri-diploma in
order to contribute to the reduction of formal barriers on the labour market in the EMR. Mutual recognition of
diplomas is an important precondition for the creation of a common labour market in the Euregio. Building up a
euregional partnership and giving insights into the existing educational systems in the Euregio to teachers and
trainers but also to apprentices should contribute to mutual trust, more transparency and better quality in vocational
training. Therefore the project aims at comparing training curricula and final examinations of the involved partners
and developing a common euregional final examination on this basis. Furthermore a classification
of learning outcomes according to the EQF and an evaluation of core competences with ECVET shall help to create
transparency. This goal requires the co-operation of all institutions participating in vocational training (enterprises,
professional schools, training centers) and relevant bodies (Chamber of craft Aachen, Kenniscentrum KOC, IAWM).
To promote the understanding of the different educational systems exchanges of teachers from professional
schools, trainers and apprentices are particularly important. This can be realised by organising common activities
such as group conversations, company visits, training visits and internships. The acquaintance of language and
intercultural competences such as offered in the Euregio-Kompetenz are also an important element. The earlier
these competences are acquired the [ot hat[ha easier will the integration of the economic region of the EMR
proceed.

Summary
Many people have great difficulty when trying to find ‘traditional’ employment (fixed contract work with an
employer). In times of recession, the competition for jobs becomes even more fierce, and there are additional
challenges facing minorities, migrants, disadvantaged/disabled people. However, many people who want to work,
but cannot find jobs, have the energy and commitment to create something for themselves. The NEWEL project
will look at alternative employment routes: cooperatives; social enterprises, part-time and job-share work; home
working. There is a huge range of options and ideas across Europe; we want to help our staff and learners to see
these real examples for themselves, to gain motivation and ideas for new ways to create employment, and for new
training and learning opportunities. There will be visits to workplaces, discussions with advisers, sharing of ideas
about successful opportunities. The project will help us to answer questions such as: What training do people need?
How can we offer this training in our centres? How can individuals gain motivation for the training, and What
support do they need?
We want to include planning and discussion about future mobility work between the partners, for learners interested
in developing their skills in the alternatives to employment – through work placements and professional exchanges.
This current project is focused on our own centres, our staff and our learners. Given the importance of the concept,
however, we believe that this small-scale first project could develop into a major new initiative – we would therefore like to include some preliminary planning about a large-scale Lifelong Learning project in the work programme.

Summary
For a disabled person, and especially for those with multiple disabilities, reaching the labour market is a major
challenge. It implies overcoming overwhelming barriers in school, when going to university, taking the local bus
or even surfing on the Internet. Therefore, the partnership will address ways to overcome these barriers and help
to implement the UN Declaration of Rights for People with Disabilities in all our member countries.
The overall aim of the project is that, through transnational collaboration, the participants will explore and identify
issues for the training of professionals. In order to develop methodologies addressing lifelong learning and work
related issues in the development of people with multiple disabilities and visual impairment. Methodologies that
will support people during their transition towards work, for people who have difficulties in accessing the formal
vocational training system and/or the traditional employment market in their member states.
Professionals are in need of training methodologies and curricula to rehabilitate and educate the target group.
So they can increase their capacity, to improve their potential employability by acquiring or updating their basic
and general work skills.
The partnership and its work groups includes a range of expertise, such as adult educators, vocational trainers,
special education teachers, university lecturers, researchers and private consultants, together with users organizations.
They will look at the issues involved in enabling professionals to support the project beneficiaries to develop
their citizenship. This includes routes to and forms of work, continuing education, personal and social development,
and the methodologies, materials and staff training required to achieve this.
Training for professionals and development of their skills to support people with MDVI in the transition to work
and within the workplace, have been identified in the following areas: job mediation, valued activities, assistive
technology, personal and social skills.
Job mediation/coaching signifies a support system that helps the client to work as interdependently and with as
much autonomy as possible whilst taking part in work.
A valued activity is active participation – being part of a context in relation to other people/society/community.
Personal and social skills implies having the skills to interpret and interact with other people in your surroundings.
And assistive technology means that technology, not necessarily hi-tech, needs to meet the individual requirements
of the person. Therefore the assessment needs to be thorough in order to understand what functions and processes
the person needs to carry out and to ascertain what the most appropriate type of technology is to enable them
to do so.
Each of the mentioned areas will be explored during meetings which take place over the next two years. Participating
countries will bring their best practices and professionals to the meeting, with specific presentations by partners
who are making significant progress in the particular area. The best practices, information and methodologies
gathered during the course of the project will result in guidelines. These guidelines will be presented during the
last meeting of the project in The Netherlands in Spring 2013.

Summary
The partnership consists of Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) education and training institutes from European
Member States who are all part of the pan-european EDINNA (Education in Inland Navigation) network, consisting
of 24 IWT education and training institutes from 13 countries.
The idea of the partnership is to conduct practical research on the use of simulators in the different institutes
and the underlying didactical concepts. Partners will develop their own assessment criteria and collect information
on the different simulators used in the practical teaching world. These findings will be shared at a larger expert
conference with other stakeholders such as research institutes, exam commissions, authorities etcetera. In order
to develop draft recommendations on minimum standards for the use of simulators in European IWT education and
training. Ideally, these draft recommendations could be fed into harmonised European ‘Standards of Training and
Certification in Inland Navigation’ (STCIN).

Social
Farming
in Europe
Summary
The project approaches the subject of Social farming in Europe, to create benefits in different sectors (Health,
Social, Education, Economy, Environment) and positive impacts for people and society.
In Europe,’Social Farming’ (S.F.) utilizes farming and agriculture as a therapeutic tool to provide health, social or
educational care services for one or a range of vulnerable groups and demonstrated a number of health, economic,
and societal benefits; positive impact on rural areas; positive economic impact on local economy and farms; positive
social impact: unemployed, people with disabilities, etcetera; positive environmental impact.
The consortium of the project is composed by four different organisations with specific and complementary
competences, from research and academic to the farms and practitioners.
One of the specific objectives is to create a good context for the development of a common European framework
for the ‘Social Farming’ sector; to promote awareness raising about Social Farming; to improve the qualifications
and competences of professionals working with different disadvantaged groups; to foster the integration of learning
with working life (Europe 2020); to develop working methods about Social Farming using social media.
2011-1-PT1-LEO04-08526
There will be six transnational meetings that preview organisation of coordination meetings, workshops and
conferences as also study visits and networking activities.
Products are an online platform, a benchmark of the situation in partner countries, a guidebook on Social Farming
in Europe, and thematic newsleters on Social Farming.
The project will contribute to transform a pioneering situation ( as occurs in many countries on a voluntary
basis) in a recognised system in social/health care system or even as an Inclusive model.

Summary
The partners of this project are training organizations which aim is to support the development of the Public
Administration (in particular local and in decentralized states) and the upgrading of the professional skills of civil
servants. Public Administration new skills play an active role in the economic, social and governance development
processes.
The partners, already experienced in cooperation projects, are convinced that, sharing knowledge and get in
touch with other contexts and ideas are strategic for their capacity of innovation and of understanding and
facing the changes requested nowadays to the Public Administration:“to become an active promoter of the economic/
social/governance development.
The partners aim to cooperate for analysing their mutual experiences in thie field of ‘new skills’ of civil servants
and local politicians and in the ‘training methodologies and strategies in order to:
•
promote an active role of the PA in sustaining the social, economic and governance development;
•
foster a better integration between ‘private and public actors’and between ‘training and labour market’.
The partnership intends to focus on the following questions:
•
which are the new profiles of the civil servant and the local politician; which are their key-competences?;
•
which tools & methods must be adopted for identification and training of the new skills;
•
how to improve the qualification of teachers and trainers? How to implement quality assurance in
training activities?;
•
which are the successful strategies and methodologies to promote training actions and involve participants?;
•
are there any relations between the civil servants’ new skills and the private actors’?; could ‘mix
training actions – public/private – be useful for a best training effectiveness?;
•
how to transfer European good practices to the developing countries for improving PA?.

Bale Building
2011-1-BE3-LEO04-03605
DE Summary
Following two European conferences on straw-bale-building in 2007 and 2009, a large European network of ‘straw
bale buildings professionals’ has been established. Members of this European network are now encouraging a
continuous cooperation on both national and international level.
Targets that are set, related to the ‘International climate change debate’ have, among other issues, increased the
validity of straw-bale-building as a contemporary construction option for a sustainable and new building material.
Straw as building material has a negative CO2 footprint and has also good insulation qualities.
Several national associations have since established, with the aim of promoting straw-bale-building and gaining
regulatory, approval for this new building method. Due to this promotion, various construction methods have
been developed in the different regions of the European union.
At this moment there is a strong need for extensive cooperation between the national associations to define and
share ‘best building practice’. And this ‘best building practice’ must be transformed into a ‘professional training program’.
In the European Learning Partnership for straw-bale-building of 2009, the most experienced national organizations
developed the structure for a training program of ten units and created a model for comparing six common straw-balebuilding techniques from some European countries.
The results of the first project now needs to be extended and developed, and it is necessary to incorporate the
‘build and training techniques’ of new partners, to produce clear guidelines on ‘best practice techniques’ and ‘details’,
and incorporate these into a professional European ECVET training program for delivery throughout Europe.
An intensive exchange of ‘knowledge’ and ‘best practice experience’ in both build and training will support the
development of a higher quality training program.
Each of the ‘detailed topics’ of the ten developed ‘units’ will each need: ‘session plans’ with a corresponding
breakdown of ‘knowledge, skills and competencies’ to be met. And each ‘topic’ needs ‘supporting info, exercise
and technical sheets’.
The target group for this ‘best building practice’ and ‘ECVET training program’ will be the building professionals,
crafts people and trainers.

The Information stored and processed by the public sector is quite different than by the private sector because
it is a valuable asset of the whole society instead of a single institution. For example, a company’s upcoming
investment strategy might be kept secure for the sake of the competitive and beneficiary purposes. Whereas,
social security information, health records and bond reserves of citizens and companies should be kept private for
the sake of the country.
The government aims to deliver better quality public services that are accessible for all. It aims to increase the
productivity in the public sector, so that services can be provided at a lower cost and time is freed up for more
personal interaction. It can also enhance participation in public policy development and thus reinforce democracy,
as well as help increasing the transparency and accountability of the public sector.
Security plays central role in e-Government. Concerns about security of electronic networks and information
systems have been growing along with the rapid increase in the number of network users and the value of their
transactions. Security has now reached a critical point where it represents a prerequisite for the growth of electronic
businesses and the functioning of the whole economy.

Summary
In this Partnership project the partners take a look at and analyse the different care and guidance systems for
students in vocational education and training. The focus is also on approaches to violence prevention and the
intervention in dangerous situations, especially when occurring in vocational education and training schools.
The project is designed for educational psychologists, consulting teachers, school staff and cooperating partners,
such as policemen, to exchange information on these issues on a European scale and approve methods and policies
for transferability.
By using and/or initiating trustful local, regional, national and international networking structures the results of
the project will be analysed and a road map for implementation in further education, personnel and organisational
development will be developed.

Social Inclusion
in Europe
2011-1-DK1-LEO04-03577
DK Summary
Too many young people are outside the job market in Europe and the field of working with marginalised young
people is an increasing source of employment for graduates in Europe. Practitioners need new methods to
integrate marginalised young people into work and or education. Marginalised people are entangled ‘cases’ and
therefore need an inter-disciplinary and inter-organisational approach. Academic institutions that teach future
social workers, teachers and social pedagogues as well as current practitioners lack knowledge of and methods for
inter-professional and inter-organisational forms of collaboration.
This partnership will create a European network of academic and practice-based institutions in the social care
sector. The network will create a more structured theoretical framework of understanding combined with the
practical approach of the field of inter-organisational and inter-professional work.
During project run, the network will focus on forms of social entrepreneurship aimed at strengthening social
inclusion and active participation of marginalised young people (15-30 years) that have social or other problems
and are to be integrated into work or education.
The network will conduct a survey of existing knowledge/experience of academic and practice-based partners.
A shared analysis of collected data will be made thereby identifying areas of focus for further research. New
research will then be performed and will be used to produce new knowledge and develop new methods to improve
the service effort towards the target group.
To disseminate new knowledge and methods to relevant stakeholders, a national in-service training seminar/conference
will be held in each partner country and a cross-national in-service training seminar/conference will be carried out.

Summary
Problems concerning mental health and well-being are amongst the top challenges that are facing the workplace,
in a global scale today. Since 2005, the World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for Europe and the
European Commission have both recognized the importance of mental health and well-being and prevention of
mental health problems at the workplace as well as overcoming stigma, discrimination and reintegration. In the
current economic climate, issues around mental health, well-being and employment have never been more important.
Increasing number of individuals in the European Union are experiencing mental health problems in varying
degrees, that traditional models of vocational reconversion are no longer effective when it comes to helping them
find and keep employment. This therefore calls for a more developmental, and open care approach that will solve,
as well as prevent mental disorders in the workforce.
This partnership is focused on raising awareness on this issue amongst employers and employees, but more
importantly, developing mechanisms that will help employees and potential employees in preventing, coping with
and solving mental health issues, to successfully reintegrate them in the workplace.

Summary
The Organic food processing sector is developing fast in Europe and worldwide. Numbers of companies processing
organic food in European countries increase and existing companies expand their production and markets. In
many countries consumer demands for different organic and sustainable products is higher than supply of organic
processed food.
Organic food processing and organic market development demands well educated and competent human resources.
Next to general knowledge, skills and competence required in food processing, organic food processing depends
on additional and specific know-how.
The education sector in Europe is not answering the demand of the organic processors and its employees. Better
organisation and recognition of education for organic processing is necessary to better meet needs of all partners
of this sector. This project addresses these challenges.
This project aims to create a European concept of trainings for the organic food processing sector. The concept
will cover broadly all employees in the organic food processing sector and focus specifically on the most relevant
employees groups.
An exchange forum will be created as a platform for information exchange for organic food processing sector both
as a tool to collect relevant information supporting realisation of the project aims and objective, as well as a
tool for further communication and exchange after the project is finished.
Partners will also exchange on and provide first suggestion for implementation of ECVET for training covered by
the earlier developed concept of training for organic food processing sector. Additionally, strategy for promotion
and implementation of the concept of training will be developed to encourage use of project results and further
development of the educational offer.

Summary
The phrase ‘social enterprise’ (SE) describes a business which has been set up primarily to contribute to combating
social issues, and can be a powerful method to change society.
Set4change aims to bring together experts in the fields of VET, entrepreneurship, SET experts and gender equality
in order to explore synergies and share best practice in the area of creativity and ideas generation (focusing on
the opportunities provided by promoting social enterprise to women in B/SET).
Women are highly under-represented in entrepreneurship, but particularly so in the field of B/SET. Indicators
show that numbers of women are far below those of men opening companies with a B/SET focus, only 8.3% of
patents awarded by the European Patent Office were to women in 2008.
However, it has been shown that women are more likely to be involved in opening a social enterprise. There is
therefore an opportunity to explore methodologies of supporting women in B/SET to investigate social enterprise.
The project aims to do this through a series of workshops exploring ideas generation and creative thinking for
enterprise in women studying/working in B/SET. Four workshops will be provided throughout the project’s lifetime,
aimed at trainers, VET stakeholders and women each focusing on a different aspect of creativity and ideas generation.
All of the tools used also promote intrapreneurial thinking, supporting women in their career progression.
By supporting women to explore the opportunities provided by social enterprise, the project aims to pilot the
effectiveness of this approach in VET to support higher numbers of women in B/SET to set up their own business,
support SE and inspire them to transform society using B/SET. An online guide to the workshops will be produced.

Summary
The partners in this project are part of the ‘LIVE DMA’ network, representing 800 venues and festivals on the
European territory.
During the past five years, new categories of jobs seem to appear in European popular music venues. Alongside
their main activity which is organising concerts, many of them also develop educative and social activities,
meaning that new kinds of professionals are working in these venues. We think that it is a major issue for our
venues, for the professionals who work in these organisations, for the public.
What does this mean in terms of professionalisation, impact on the public, the venues’ projects and the territories?
With MUSICATION we plan to build a collaborative network and a frame for exchanges between the professionals
in charge of educative activities in modern music organisations in the partner countries, collate the partners’
experiences, conceive and experiment a common pedagogical frame aiming at professionalising the employees in
charge of these educative activities. This also contributes to promote cultural diversity and European citizenship.
We will pilot a research on the topic in each country. The results will be published on the internet. We will also
organise work meetings between the employees in charge of educative activities in music organisations and the
partners’ staff, consisting in the observation of activities organised in different countries and exchanges of
experiences. We will build a common curriculum aiming at professionalising the employees. A final conference
will allow us to disseminate the results of our project and imagine new opportunities and cooperations.

Summary
The ‘European Documentation of Contemporary Dance Education’ (EDOCDE) supports contemporary dance educators
in their professional development, establishing ‘best practices’ and increasing the visibility and image of contemporary
dance educators in the European market.
Reflecting the diversity of contemporary dance education in Europe, EDOCDE will evaluate and develop the pedagogic
practices of key teachers within the European Union, and investigate what is both unique and common to the
teaching practices within each country.
EDOCDE develops a practice of verbalizing, writing and reflecting upon the developments in contemporary dance
education by documenting classes and by discussing the different practical and theoretical approaches. It helps
dance educators to become fluent in technical terminology in English.
EDOCDE uses online and ‘offline’ activities for contemporary dance educators: it creates a public, interactive online
database and organize an European teacher exchange as well as an European symposium in cooperation with
national dance associations in order to develop, collect and share innovative knowledge and skills.
Alongside the international meetings, the project will also share the information and support the development of
pedagogic practice on a national level through a series workshops with leading dance educators of the country
and mentors from other participating countries involving invited key teachers based in that country. These events
will contribute to a wider distribution of the gained knowledge.
The online database, that will be created during the project, contains documents and evaluates the process and
results of the involved dance educators. This website will be available for use, also for other dance educators,
beyond the project duration.

ROC/AOC and KBB
The Centres of Expertise on vocational education, training and the labour market (Kenniscentra Beroepsonderwijs
Bedrijfsleven - KBB) are the institutions that develop the Dutch qualification structure for vocational education.
Together with companies and schools they are responsible for senior secondary vocational education and training.
The Netherlands have seventeen Centres of Expertise, specialised around one sector or branche of industry.
Besides developing qualification files and the qualification structure, they recruit training firms and monitor the
quality of these training firms.
Centres of Expertise and educational institutes ensure sufficient influx of new and qualified talent in the various
branches. Together with the Centres of Expertise, the social partners, training firms, stakeholders on education
and training and government make a contribution to good and attractive vocational education.
The VET sector consists in 70 VET colleges comprising VET colleges (Regionaal Opleidingen Centrum, ROCs in
Dutch), agricultural VET colleges (AOCs in Dutch) and specialised vocational colleges. All VET colleges have a
strong regional orientation.
The VET colleges offer VET in technology, economics, personal/social services, health care and adult education.
The agricultural VET colleges offer pre-vocational secondary and VET in the agricultural and food technology sectors.
Specialised vocational colleges offer programmes for one branch of industry only, such as graphic arts and design,
butchery, house painting, furniture making, the fishing industry and shipping and transport.
