Title: ‘EMSA’ – Entrepreneurial Mindset and Key Skills For All
Date: 2023 to 2025
Location: Greece, Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan, and Palestine.
Donor: ERASMUS+
We are thrilled to announce the latest developmental phase of the EMSA Project, a dynamic and forward-thinking initiative under the Erasmus+ programme, co-funded by the European Union. This ambitious three-year program, which commenced in December 2023 and continues until 2025, is set to make a significant impact by equipping learners and aspiring entrepreneurs with the essential entrepreneurial and lifelong learning skills needed to thrive in today’s competitive landscape.
Moving beyond traditional training, EMSA focuses on two powerful pillars: building practical entrepreneurial thinking aligned with the ENTRECOMP framework and strengthening the core competencies for lifelong learning outlined in the European Reference Framework (ERF). Our goal is clear—to boost employability, foster personal and professional development, and create robust pathways for growth.
What makes EMSA unique is its structured, quality-driven approach. Partners recently convened for a project evaluation meeting to review progress, measure achievements, and plan the public rollout strategy. The training is designed to be comprehensive and accessible, with the second phase of the ERF-based pathway now launched. This phase covers six key competencies through eighteen in-depth units, each delivered in 8-hour sessions over eighteen weeks. Furthermore, upon completion, participants will undergo an assessment and successful candidates will receive an internationally recognized certificate in accordance with ISO 17024 standards.
Through the development of this structured curriculum, innovative delivery methods, and a focus on interactive skill-building, EMSA is not just another training program—it’s a comprehensive ecosystem for effective online learning and professional networking.
This project is a testament to international collaboration, bringing together partners from multiple European countries, including Greece and Cyprus, and non-European countries, including Egypt, Jordan, and Palestine. Together, we are bridging borders to foster entrepreneurship, enhance skills, and support the next generation of leaders.
As part of the project’s ongoing communication and dissemination efforts, this update highlights the recent evaluation outcomes and the exciting launch of the next training phase.
