Objectives

The main objective of the project is designing an internationally certified training for future mentors of small and medium companies, that will be able, using the acquired knowledge, to work with SME directors/owners as business processes counselors in a more personal and relaxed environment. Beyond training materials for mentors, an initial evaluation and continual training monitoring will also be developed, ending with an evaluation of learning outcomes achieved by the trainees.

Target audience

  • Members of the VET institutions teaching staff will take part in the French and Finnish mentoring experiences and will become mentors themselves
  • Masters students that study economics will have access to the integral courses as optional training sessions in the curriculums of VET institutions
  • Entrepreneurs and other experts in economics that wish to work as SME mentors
  • Entrepreneurs that wish to be mentored
