Preparing new graduates for this reality is essential. 34 students from countries including Finland, Austria, Estonia, Romania, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Norway and Serbia took part in an intensive 11-day seminar in July 2007 under the Erasmus programme. The aim of the seminar was to test and validate curriculums for training in the areas of innovation and entrepreneurship, to work on case studies in the fields of forestry and the environment and to develop training support capable of being reused, transferred and adapted. had to prepare a case study set in a real business in order to analyse and evaluate the innovation strategy of the business. This enabled the group to experience, develop and disseminate theories, concepts and tools which could form the framework for a training curriculum focused on innovation and targeted at all higher education institutions in Europe.
