CREDNET – Network for the Accreditation of the Managerial Skills
The project CREDNET – Network for the Accreditation of the Managerial Skills was a transnational network, coordinated by Action Synergy and co-funded by the Lifelong Learning Programme (Leonardo da Vinci – Networks), that envisaged a common framework of competencies and qualifications for the recognition of and validation of entrepreneurial-related and managerial skills acquired in non-formal learning. This was achieved by developing a certification methodology and criteria to validate informal learning especially for the credibility and recognition of the competencies established.
The main results of the project were the following:
Protocol of perspectives and trends: Summary of the perspectives and trends for revision, application and improvement of European certification models for managerial competences.
Best Practices Online Portal: Online portal on which the best practices in the field of accreditation and certification of managerial competencies are going to be uploaded.
Self Evaluation Tool: Online tool for the self – evaluation of skills and competencies.
Training Content: E-Learning training contents to train the managers in the methodology.
The partnership of the project is consisted by 8 partners from 7 countries (Greece, Cyprus, Italy, Slovenia, Poland, Latvia and Romania) and includes all the relevant actors in the field: SMEs, Incubator, SME Association, Adult Education Provider and National Authority for the Certification of Competencies.
