Starting date of the event: 04/09/2019

Number of places in total: approximately 70

Profile of participants:
The seminar is open to participants within the fields of school education,
vocational education and training, adult education and higher education. The contact seminar is
mainly targeted at representatives from schools, VET and higher education institutions, second
chance schools, adult education centres, teacher training institutions, enterprises, research
institutions and other organisations interested in the theme of the seminar and committed to
developing cross-sectoral Erasmus+ strategic partnerships.
NB! The participants are expected to register on the event website, share their photo and contact details with other participants (in the password-protected section of the website) and prepare a brief introductory presentation (details will be provided to the selected participants).

Themes and goals of the event:
The overall idea of the contact seminar is to find partners with similar interests and develop ideas for the new KA2 strategic partnerships on the topic of ICT and digital skills. The seminar will also give an opportunity to share experience and discover new approaches in the field with a special focus on creating cross-sectoral and transversal collaborations between different types of organisations.
Digital technologies are key drivers of innovation, growth and job creation in the global world. However not everybody has the knowledge, skills and attitudes to be able to use digital technologies in a critical, collaborative and creative way.
The lack of digital competence of a large part of the EU population has dramatic repercussions on their employability perspective. The rapid digital transformation of the economy means that almost all jobs now require some level of digital skills, as does participation in society at large. Digital skills are now as vital as literacy and numeracy and Europe therefore needs digitally competent people who are not only able to use but also to innovate and lead in using these technologies.
Digital competence refers to the ability to use digital technologies. It involves the confident and critical use of Information Society Technology (IST) for work, leisure and communication. Being digitally competent is more than being able to use the latest smart phone or computer software — it is about being able to use such digital technologies in a critical, collaborative and creative way. One of the main challenges that require actions from educational sector is how to prepare the population to constantly keep updating digital competences in order to adapt in technologically diverse environment. Transnational collaboration and exchange of innovative ideas between European educational institutions through Erasmus+ programme is an opportunity for tackling these issues.

Expected results:
Participants will find motivated partners with same interests and will draft good quality cross-sectoral KA2 project proposals for the next Erasmus+ selection round.

Programme of event:
The seminar will start with dinner on the 4th of September and will finish with lunch on the 7th.

Profile of participants: Erasmus+ beneficiaries: representatives’ of on-going projects as well as those finalised with good examples of dissemination and exploitation approaches, representatives of institutions using results of Erasmus+ projects and potential users of results and other stakeholders (e.g. decision makers).

Themes and goals of the event:

Educational projects should influence the target groups and change their lives for the better. The Erasmus+ Programme Guide says that: “dissemination and exploitation goals may be to: raise awareness; extend the impact; engage stakeholders and target groups; share solutions and know how; influence policy and practice; develop new partnerships.” That’s why Strategic partnerships projects should pay attention especially to the implementation of their results. The question is how to ensure their durability after the project funding has finished. Which tools to use? There are many different tools but no one knows all of them. The seminar will give Erasmus+ beneficiaries the opportunity to exchange experience in the subject of exploitation, sustainability and dissemination of results. The main aim of the seminar is to create space for participants to exchange both results and methods of improving their sustainability. At the same time, the event will enable participants to gain inspiring knowledge and specific, practical competences.

The seminar will focus more on implementation and exploitation of projects’ final results than on their dissemination. However, knowing the significance of dissemination activities, we will present attractive tools that can be used by beneficiaries during and after the project’s lifetime. For instance, we will offer you a multimedia workshop on recording videos.

The specific goals are:

1. exchange of experience among participants and contribution from experts on the subject of sustainability, exploitation and dissemination;
2. exchange of good practices, tools, methods and approaches in sustainability, exploitation and dissemination activities;
3. preparing recommendations for future Erasmus+ beneficiaries on efficient ways of exploiting and sustaining results.

Expected results:

1. increased knowledge of efficient tools and methods that can help sustain and exploit project results;
2. increased competences in effective exploitation and sharing or project results;
3. creating a community of practices in maintaining implemented results; networking for future joint cooperation activities.

The event will start with welcome dinner on the, 8^th May 2019 and it will finish with breakfast on the 11^st May 2019.
