Priorities:

HORIZONTAL: Sustainable investment, performance and efficiency in education and training

VET: Further developing quality assurance mechanisms in VET

Aims and Objectives: UPPScience was conceived as a sustainable further development of another Erasmus+ KA2 VET called VISConti that, under the leadership of NTNU and with the presence of various partners of this current proposal, created a Community of Practice (CoP) between players in VET, HE and the Industry. This proposal will build on the CoP and the digital platform created by VISConti in order that it may:

- widen the scope and mission of the CoP,

- augment the services and functions of the platform to include publishing and new aspects of profiling that are at the core of UPPScience

- bring into the CoP a larger number of managers and teachers / trainers in VET, students in HE of STEM and IT as well as other disciplines that have an effect on or are affected by the science world.
