TrainESEE v.2 is a capacity building project targeted at the six universities of the East and South Eastern Europe, with a focus on improving specific generic skills, in line with the curricula insufficiencies identified through the implementation of the EE S – Train ESEE pilot (2017-2018). The duration of the project is 2 years (2020-2021), during which four training modules will be developed, implemented and prepared as acceleration programmes:

• Teaching methodology;

• Project development and management;

• Innovation and entrepreneurial module

• Science to Business module.

Within the project, each of the six participating RIS Universities will collaborate in the preparation of the acceleration programmes.

Acceleration programmes are planned to last continuously for the minimum of 3 years after the implementation, increasing the percentage of the trained academic staff to >50% at each of the “Training” universities.

This project is funded by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union, under the Horizon 2020, the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovaion
