The project “Innovative strategic partnership for European higher education” (ISPEHE) addresses several identified best practices at the European level: teaching of entrepreneurship, an integrated and innovative approach to entrepreneurship education, establishing a link between HEIs and enterprises for the development of practical learning pathways.
The project is developed based on the complementarity between the current societal needs, the identified gaps and proposed recommendations in the EU strategic documents and previously successfully implemented projects by the partnering institutions.
The purpose is to create a sustainable innovative improvement of the current approaches adopted and successfully implemented in all partnering institutions, and produce a long-term strategic model that will operate successfully beyond the project period. Building upon this complementary approach to individually implemented activities in each of the partnering institutions, the project has three main innovative components: the Business Education Public Integration Platform (hereinafter referred to as BEP), the Integrated Model (SILM) that should share educational best practices across Europe, and the Consolidated Career Centre.
The overall objective of the project is to support the development of an innovative pathway by improving long-term strategic collaboration between Higher Education Institutions and enterprises and enhancing the development of sustainable learning advancements in HEIs.
