Date du début: 1 août 2014, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2016 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

The speed of change in our societies, rapid advances in new technologies, and the changing needs of the economy in a globalized world lead to new challenges. One crucial challenge we have to face is the unpredictability of the future. Think of the children starting school today, they will retire in 2076! What will the world look like then? Our national education systems should to enable our students “to solve problems that do not exist yet, to use technologies that have not been invented yet and to succeed in jobs that do not exist yet”. Another challenge is overcoming the socio-economic crisis affecting Europe. Consequently, our educational systems have to provide students with the multiple skills required by rapidly changing, interconnected competitive economies. As a result our education systems need to be modernized. Creativity and innovative thinking are as as important as literacy and numeracy. Developing leadership skills, enhancing a sense of initiative and entrepreneurship, increasing self-empowerment and self-esteem, promoting the importance of effective cooperation by using traditional and new ways of communication have all been recognized as means to promote employability and career prospects, especially in reaching key functions in (inter)national business and improving flexibility in a changing 21st century Europe. The multilateral project “SEE: Skilled European Entrepreneurs” aims to promote creativity and stimulate innovation by broadening and deepening the impact on our students and on our society and economy. Moreover, it uses an entrepreneural approach to put ideas into practice by combining and enhancing the competences and skills mentioned above. This multi-dimensional project is also an innovative approach to learning as it aims to integrate modern entrepreneural skills into the educational field to improve and modernize the existing school systems. It will employ strategies which can be used at different levels (individual development – students and teachers -, school development, development in society and on an international level) by enhancing cooperation and clear leadership while working towards a shared vision.
