Final evaluation partner meeting
On November 10th 2009, the final “Better Building” project meeting took place in Bologna, Italy.
Partners discussed various exploitation possibilities, in particular for the products the target country partners have developed. IAL, Papilot and TEKSAV presented their strategic ideas about future deployment within their countries. BEST, RKK and FRG, in addition to further implementing results within their own countries, once again agreed on cooperation in terms of using project results within their existing international networks.
The meeting also served for dealing with finalisation issues on a technical and administrative level.
Altogether, the “Better Building” outcomes have been evaluated as an important contribution for innovative didactical offers to different educational providers in VET. In Italy, Turkey and Slovenia, the National Strategic Advisory group has shown considerable interest in continuing their support in terms of further development of the three main products the partnership has elaborated, i.e. the Better Building in VET Train the Trainer Qualification Curricula, Didactic guidelines and recommendations and Implementation Concept.
All products will be available for free download for at least two years after the project’s official ending at the project website:
