ETM-European Technology Transfer Manager

Activities

To reach this goal, the project will produce:

1. A competence profile of the European TTM. The profile will be fully structured according to ECVET guidelines and described in the paper The European TTM Competence Profile. The profile will describe key activities (units of competence) and for each activity skills and knowledge needed. To each unit will be allocated a set of ECVET points, so to allow recognition and transfer in other existing official qualifications and comparison with similar profiles in different countries.
   
2. The blueprint (lessons plans including materials touse for training) of a training course for training TTMs. The blueprint will be described in the paper A Blueprint for the Training of the European TTM
   
3. A procedure for the accreditation (recognition of competence) of people working as TTM. The procedure will allow assessment, transfer, validation and accumulation of learning outcomes (under the form of ECVET points) achieved in formal, informal and non-formal contexts. The procedure will be described in the paper A Methodology For Assessing And Validating Competence of the European TTM.
   
4. Guidelines for the accreditation of courses providers organizing courses for training TTMs will be produced. The guidelines will be described in the paper Guidelines for accreditation of training providers.
   
5. Guidelines for the application of ECVET to qualifications. These are described in a document with the same name and will list a set of principles (quality standards) for the application of ECVET to TTM and more in general to national, sectoral or trans-sectoral qualifications
