Project Summary

With the development of the E365 project project’s partners seek to develop educational opportunities based on the necessities of extending the entrepreneurial competence (through the skills related to) and for this reason, to foster a more supportive entrepreneurial culture in European Union using E365 results as a positive message to highlight the potential of entrepreneurship in terms of economic contributions, innovation, and job creation.

By priorities chosen, E365 project seeks to facilitate the empowerment of adult learners and learners most vulnerable or at risk of exclusion to social and professional by developing critical thinking, reflexivity, and self-assessment ability and other skills necessary for entrepreneurial competence upgrowth among low-skilled or low-qualified adults.

The main aim of this project is to extend and develop self – directed learning platform in order to improve adult education in the six project partners’ countries and therefore, to promote a sense of belonging for adult learners who are at high risk of exclusion such as unemployed people by creating opportunities to practice entrepreneurial competencies in an inclusive learning environment that naturally fosters self-esteem and resilience.

The project overall objective is to foster entrepreneurship skills development among unemployed adult learners. We will reach this objective with designing, developing, producing and implementing 2 Intellectual Outputs:

1. Intellectual Output Nr.1 “Weekly inspiration”. The concept of this IO is based on the necessities of extending the entrepreneurial competence. This IO seeks to provide adult learners with new options for self-directed learning. The main objective of this intellectual output is to develop 52 weekly themes – resources to acquire entrepreneurial knowledge.

2. Intellectual Output Nr.2 “E365 – everyday challenges” seeks to provide adult learners with new options to address the challenges to the lack of entrepreneurial competence. The innovative element is teaching strategy used to strengthen adult learners entrepreneurship skills: adult learners will be involved in the challenges aside of tasks, exercises, and tests that are traditionally used for a knowledge evaluation.208 challenges will be developed.

52 training resources (one per week in a year), as well as 208 challenges to practice and test the entrepreneurial competence and finally, 12 success stories (one per month) – part of the 208 challenges mentioned above, will be developed and in the way to reach these objectives will be included in a digital platform compatible with a mobile phone as a dynamic training system.

Moreover, it shares the common position of self-education – freedom of choice when and where to learn and also allows educators to host various types of learning content, update information easily, and to manage their endeavors more efficiently.

A total number of six Transnational Meetings are planned for determinative phases or milestones of the project.
