The project proposal addresses the need of fostering job-related skills and competences of sports administration employees, who will in turn strengthen the capacities of sport organizations and make them more competitive and successful. In other words, the aim of this project is to enable each administrator to effectively improve and develop administrative functions in their organizations, which would result in better governance of a sport organization. To achieve that, a training programme in Sports Administration will be developed and delivered by the consortium. The core activities are the following: 1. The comprehensive analysis on the educational needs of sport administrators will be conducted. 2. Based on the obtained results, academic institutions will create customized curriculum, which will give ground to developing six educational modules.3. Train-the-trainer events will take place after the modules are created. 4. In order to make the modules transferable, Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) will be developed. Modules will be uploaded on the online platform, specially created for the needs of this project. The target group of this project proposal is sport administration staff who are not formally educated in sport administration. However, the project is transversally addressing the educators as well in order to achieve multiplying effect. The collaboration of a transnational partnership will be created, comprised of 6 partners from 5 countries: • two academic institutions will create the curriculum and develop educational modules, teaching methods and materials; • one NGO will conduct the research on educational needs;• two organizations experienced in sport administration will provide knowledge in certain areas and ensure that the implementation of the project is appropriate.

ChangeShaping Schools aspires to scale up a thoroughly researched, evidenced based educational model, transfer it to different EU countries and thus become the gateway project for diffusing “Social Innovation Education” (SIE) in European education systems. SIE offers a comprehensive educational method for empowering and preparing students for tomorrow’s world. The application of this model in primary and secondary schools in Cyprus, Romania, Serbia and Croatia shall foster a critical attitude and drive in young people by encouraging them to co-create, with a diverse range of people, social innovations to address social issues, embrace common values and promote social and civic awareness. Through this hands-on process they develop social and civic competences so they can continue being a catalyst for societal transformation in the future.Towards that, the project priorities are to:- Empower teachers of primary and secondary education and reinforce their professional development opportunities by being trained in the innovative learning methods and teaching practices that are incorporated in the SIE model;- Harness students social and civic competences by fostering knowledge, understanding and ownership of values and fundamental rights;- Foster a democratic and inclusive culture within schools which values diversity and allows space for dialogue and discussion by actively engaging all members of the community in a process where students are at the centre of decision making;- Establish and maintain cross-sectoral alliances and stronger cooperation between a wide range of actors (educational institutions and learning providers, public authorities, stakeholder and civil society organisations) in the field of inclusive learning.Through this endeavor, a greater foothold around Europe will be gained, rendering the SIE model as the inclusive and sustainable path a school could follow.

"EU4Dual will form the first European University dedicated to dual studies characterised by the fact it combines two places of learning, where, the university, emphasises ""theory"" and the workplace, emphasises ""practice"". Our 9 partner institutions, and our network of over 35 associate partners will work together to mobilise: education, research and innovation and service to society at the regional level with the mission to use transnational dual education to help Europe address major societal challenges. These Grand Challenges include: - future of work - green economy - healthy living Our collaboration will, by 2025 lead us to: • establish a sustainable cooperation mechanism that founds the “European Dual University” and provides for its longterm operations and funding; • set up a Centre of Excellence on Dual Education, which promotes research, knowledge exchange, capacity building and development of the sector; • implement new learning pathways for dual education whereby most of our programmes include research, teaching or internship elements from at least two members of the institution • launch 2 new joint masters programme, a joint dual doctorate programme and a joint micro-credential portal, offering continuing career development and new skills created by us as well as our industry partners • launch an ecosystem of joint research projects, at micro-, meso- and macro-level supporting our grand challenges • create an unparalleled transnational work-based learning scheme with strong support from international business • Provide mobility experiences for at least 50% of our staff and students Our innovative management model will see students, companies and regions lead the institution, by holding most voting rights in our management structures. Beyond 2025, we intend to grow the university to include members from 20 countries, and become the world’s premiere dual-studies institution in terms of quality, size and breadth of activities."
