Project Summary

Context

The project responds to shared needs between the partners of a KA1 staff mobility project, coordinated by APCMA since 2017. The meetings and exchanges between teaching teams and experts from different European countries help to improve teaching practices and tools, through the identification, adaptation and transfer of other innovative pedagogical modalities already used in other European countries.

Objectives

Through the KA2, KA1 partners want to strengthen their capacity to cooperate to

Goal 1 To develop knowledge of existing expertise among partners
This is to deepen our common reflection on notions of pedagogical innovation and excellence in order to achieve a shared notion and deepen the knowledge of existing practices and needs of educational innovation partners.

Goal 2 Promote innovation and excellence in VET
Based on the shared notion of innovation and the excellence defined by the partners, the aim is to identify, collect and formalise expertise and to present it in a common and attractive form (in the form of a directory / “catalog”).

Goal 3 Develop the quality of programs and the organisation of KA1
The directory of good practices will both save time for the organisation but also better match the needs / profiles of participants and thus improve the quality of KA1 training: better target topics to address, better inform, better prepare experts and participants and meet their expectations. It will also help to diversify themes, approaches, methods and organisational formats of the KA1. For example: also offer incoming mobility (invitation to teach locally) or secure individual mobility.

Goal 4 Create conditions for mutualisation and transfer of good practices
The aim is to equip the partnership about the impact of KA1, to enhance the actions set up after participation in KA1 and to lay the foundations for creating “platforms of excellence” in vocational training (see also AP CoVE in the sectoral skills alliance).

The target audience
The two main target groups are 1 / KA1 beneficiaries and their sending organisations (consortia members) and 2 / partner organisations and their respective networks.

Description of activities

The partners will concretely discuss the notions of innovation and excellence before developing a common grid that then identifies, collects and presents expertise and good practices (min 5-10 per partner) in terms of educational innovation. New fields of excellence an be explored. The collection of all the descriptive sheets makes it possible to constitute a “catalog” or “a directory” of the good practices which will be completed as the project progresses. The partners will also discuss methods for monitoring and evaluating the impact of KA1. Feedback about impact will also feed into the “catalog” of good practices. The partnership could explore the possibility of creating a community of practice to share existing innovations and what has been put in place after a KA1 training (for example in the form of a “Exchange of know-how” forum on Euro-learning) .Logically the results of the project will support the KA1 projects implemented in 2020-2021 and strengthen the quality, quantity of projects and the reciprocity of sending and hosting. The project also aims to improve the efficiency of the organisation for the partners, especially in view of doubling or tripling the ERASMUS + post 2020 budget.

Methodology

The project will be organised in 3 phases over 24 months
A PREPARATION phase
A COLLECTING GOOD PRACTICES phase
A phase of CONSOLIDATION AND USE IN THE KA1

4 transnational meetings will organise the steering committee (all partners) and structure the exchange between partners.

The project will be organised in 4 WG
WG1: Management and administrative and financial follow-up
WG 2: Project evaluation, impact and communication / dissemination of the project
WG3: “Directory” of Innovation and Excellence »
WG4: “Creating conditions for mutualisation and transferring good practices”.

“Each partner will participate at least in one WG coordination committee. An internal evaluation will track the progress of the project.

Impact / results / benefits

– Strengthen mutual trust and develop the spirit of exchange and reciprocity;
– Improved organisation efficiency and program adequacy of KA1 visits;
– Promote innovation and excellence and equip partners to monitor impact;
– Develop the KA1 European partnership and study and prepare the possibility of establishing “platforms of excellence” in vocational training.
