Given the cultural differences, economic situations and National legislations among the different EU countries, CSR implementation has reached different level of development, influencing greatly the provision of trainings in the companies and the provision of professional support by business consultant. One of the reasons for the increased level of interest is the participation of many western EU companies on CEE territories and the growing relations and economic interests, as observed by the partners. The present proposal is aimed at finding the best education solution to formulate a curriculum for the production of a training in CSR, that can satisfy the needs of future participants especially the ones coming from Central and East Europe,. The proposed curriculum can offer them a better prospective on how sustainable and ethical organizations operate and to learn how to get enterprises interested in improve their CSR activities. Such care for employees and customers by a company has a direct impact on employees’ productivity, company’s image and with a huge benefit on company's competitiveness. By actively promoting social responsibility at all organizational levels, enterprises can significantly contribute to the European Union’s objectives of sustainable development and creation of the highly competitive social market economy. The partners analysed different aspects and situations related to sustainable and socially responsible organization, ethical behaviours, and sustainable management of resources. Their aims has been to investigate the most appropriate learning approach to be applied for delivering training to managers, business consultants, government officials and other professionals responsible for implementing CSR activities or monitoring them. During the project lifetime, both participants and stakeholders have been invited in taking part in different workshops to discuss the selected topics and assess the products as prepared by the partners. Those are the results that that be sustained after the project conclusion +Curriculum and Training Structure for Business Consultants and Managers+Curriculum of Train the Trainer training: Leading CSR, Certified Program+Engagement strategy to involve participants in the local workshopsFor this reason, the project is expected to have a positive impact on the partners and on the participants as: - Increase awareness on the importance of CSR method - Improved quality of the work developed in the procedures of evaluation of the learning of the participants and their certification;- Enlarged ability to use of simpler terminology, more interesting and engaging for target groups and stakeholders -New and more engaging methodology and tools to implement the CSR oriented tasks and activities

Despite years of massive research effort and numerous development projects, the actual practices in education continue as usual. Previous studies from the sector show that up to 50% and 70% of teachers state that they have not changed their daily practices as a result of participating in development projects (The Vocational Education Lab & Damvad 2012). Despite the need for significant transformation, the practice of teaching in Europe remains the same.Curriculums describing learning and objectives are changed and reformed, hence improving the job relevance of vocational education and training (VET), but this does not guarantee a corresponding didactic and pedagogical development improving the processes in learning. It is therefore important to develop tools and practices to better support both students and educators alike, in order to best prepare the future workforce for the skills needed in the workplace. Moreover, it is of paramount importance to develop tools and practices which can be easily facilitated by VET teachers and staff. This led to the creation of the InnovatiVET project, who pursued the following objectives: 1. Explore the potential of innovative and active pedagogies such as interdisciplinary teaching and collaborative methods2. Promote the development, testing and implementation of educational tools and innovative teaching methodologies, in order to improve educators’ industrial currency, as well as students’ skills, thus improving their employability. 3. Encourage enterprises to actively participate in the developed methods 4. Provide open and digital educational resources for the VET sector5. Increase the synergies between formal and non-formal education system Therefore, within the InnovatiVET’s project framework an international team (from Denmark, Finland, Italy, Slovenia and the United Kingdom), produced a set of accessible educational materials, provided as online and paper publications (in 5 languages): - Evidence-gathering report, focusing on emerging needs and identifying key problems from the VET sector regarding educational practices - Work-Based Learning practices in Europe - Creative Problem Solving and Design Thinking - Co-working spaces (FabLab) All Intellectual Outputs were supplemented with a series of good and best practice reports, as well as 10 pilot educational experiments in 5 countries to test the educational tools and methodologies. Outputs were disseminated towards target groups - mainly the VET sector, but also other relevant stakeholders such as private and public organizations, as well as secondary and tertiary educational institutions. The most important dissemination activities were several multiplier events (seminars and workshops) hosted by each partner country, where over 300 stakeholders from over 100 institutions were directly introduced to the project outputs. Furthermore, by means of our website, app and social media site, newspaper and media articles, press releases, intra-organizational meetings and other outlets, more than 33.000 stakeholders in partner countries and beyond were reached out to. The outputs are freely available on multiple platforms, and the wide dissemination of the outputs will aid (VET) educators, teachers, students and companies interested in fostering better cooperation with schools, in order to better prepare schools for the challenges faced by a modern workforce. A far-reaching effect was thus achieved. The project contributed to: - Renewing educational practices by means of experimentation and providing innovative methodologies beyond traditional teaching curricula - More VET schools providing innovative teaching methodologies, thus fostering industrial currency for both student and educator- Promoting partnerships: Enterprises actively participated in developing, testing and collaborating with VET schools in the developed methods - Providing open and digital educational resources for the VET sector - Increasing the synergies between formal and non-formal education system
