Implementation period:  01.11.2020 – 31.10.2024 (48 months)

Microelectronics is the most rapidly developing science representing the ground of the e-economy and e-society and its continuous training is crucial. In nano-era an integrated approach is necessary – new partnership between education and the world of work, to address the need for synergy between the education and industry, to foster the development of technological competencies and soft skills for the new jobs in microelectronics.

This Erasmus+ funded project aims to establish a transnational cooperation platform of Vocational Excellence in Microelectronics (ECoVEM) to tackle the challenges of the: digitalization, artificial intelligence, green technologies, gender equality in technology, integration of migrants.

The ECoVEM platform will bring together a set of local partners such as Initial VET (iVET) and Continuous VET (cVET) providers, polytechnics, research institutions, SMEs and industrial associations, social partners, national and regional authorities to:

  • create a sustainable partnership for excellence in VET in Microelectronics at all levels from initial VET to tertiary education and continuing VET
  • build on and complement the strong points/sectors of national VET systems and support the less advanced regions to achieve VET excellence learning

ECoVEM implements innovative instructional approaches towards life-long capacity to self-regulate learning, hard skills and soft skills using the ecosystems-based theoretical models and performance support systems.

ECoVEM embodies excellence in VET with 21 partners from 7 countries (Bulgaria, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Cyprus, Norway)  representing CoVEs for EQF 3-8, industry with national and EU industry associations, regulatory bodies in accreditation and certification and social organizations of women in technology and immigrants.
