Stepping–up Entrepreneurship, Creativity and Intercultural Competences for High Quality Teaching in Ukraine

Project summary

UA-Talent-UP is an innovative project that aims at improving the competences of teachers and trainers in Ukrainian higher education institutions to enhance global entrepreneurial capacities and creativity to future students by (1) developing a teacher training program using game-based and collaborative learning methodologies and (2) creating open micro-certified short learning programs in order to better match labour market needs and to improve the level of competences, skills, employability potential and global entrepreneurial spirit of HEI students and the general public (VET). Through the creation of Creativity Hubs at the participating Ukrainian institutions, HEI teachers will be trained to impart entrepreneurial, creativity and intercultural skills in their lectures. In addition to that, face-toface and online training will be offered to students by the Creativity Hubs and to a general public by the participating Ukrainian NGO Innovation Generation.
