PROMOTE stands for PROmoting and validating key competences in MObility and Traineeships in Europe.  The project aims at promoting and validating social, personal and organisational key competences such as entrepreneurship, civic competences and learning to learn with the help of an innovative, self-directed learning approach at the interface of higher education and business.

For this purpose the PROMOTE consortium, consisting of six universities, two networks, six business partners and two public entities, seeks to develop a holistic and rich open learning environment for teams of trainees (students) and staff from enterprises (as part of their continuing professional development) who will collaborate in learning projects at the workplace.

In these practical learning contexts the learners will acquire key competences that will be validated by means of the LEVEL5 system and connected via the e-portfolio with EUROPASS and ECTS certification.
