Objectives and description of the action

 
The aim of Leonardo da Vinci Multilateral Projects 'Transfer of Innovation' is to improve the quality and attractiveness of the European VET system by adapting and integrating innovative content or results from previous Leonardo da Vinci Projects, or from other innovative projects into public and/or private vocational training systems and companies at the national, local, regional, or sectoral level.

The process for transferring innovative training content or results will include the following:

  • Identifying and analysing targeted user requirements
  • Selecting and analysing innovative content to meet these requirements and analysing the feasibility of transfer
  • Integrating (or certifying) it in European, national, regional, local and/or sectoral training systems and practices.

This implies:

  • Adapting it to the training systems, culture, needs and requirements of targeted users (updating the product, etc.)
  • Transferring it to new socio-cultural and linguistic contexts
  • Using it in new sectors or new target groups, including piloting it in public or private training structures
 

 


Who can benefit?

 
All those in vocational education and training, other than at tertiary level, as well as the institutions and organisations facilitating such education and training, such as :
  • Institutions or organisations providing learning opportunities in the fields covered by the Leonardo da Vinci sectoral programme;
  • Associations and representatives of those involved in vocational education and training, including trainees’, parents’ and teachers’ associations;
  • Enterprises, social partners and other representatives of working life, including chambers of commerce and other trade organisations;
  • Bodies providing guidance, counselling and information services relating to any aspect of lifelong learning;
  • Bodies responsible for systems and policies concerning any aspect of lifelong learning vocational education and training at local, regional and national level;
