Description:
The "Innovative Strategic Partnership for European Higher Education" (ISPEHE) project addresses several best practices identified at the European level: teaching entrepreneurship, an integrated and innovative approach to entrepreneurship education, and creating a link between HEIs and businesses to develop practical learning pathways.
The project is developed based on the complementarity between current social needs, identified gaps, and recommendations proposed in EU strategic documents and previously successfully implemented projects by the partner institutions.
The aim is to create sustainable and innovative improvements to the current approaches successfully adopted and implemented in all partner institutions and to produce a long-term strategic model that will operate successfully beyond the project's duration. Building on this complementary approach to activities individually implemented in each of the partner institutions, the project has three main innovative components: the Business Education Integration Platform (BEP), the Shared Integrated Learning Model (SILM) to share best educational practices across Europe, and the Consolidated Career Centre.
The overall objective of the project is to support the development of an innovative pathway by enhancing long-term strategic collaboration between higher education institutions and businesses and improving the development of sustainable learning advancements in higher education institutions.
