L2L Entrepreneurship Erasmus+ Project 1st Newsletter
We are pleased to present the first newsletter about the Erasmus+ project "L2L Entrepreneurship - Learning to learn entrepreneurship for low skill young people“ that has just started with great enthusiasm in Valencia.
"L2L Entrepreneurship" is a KA2 - Strategic Partnerships for Vocational Education and Training of Erasmus+ Programme that was designed for supporting low skills young entrepreneurs to develop and realize business ideas to be launched on the European and global markets. The partnership will produce a free training course that will provide tools in all the essential aspects of the entrepreneurship process for the creation of a Winning Business Plan. The on-line training course will be available on an e-learning platform for young aspiring businessmen, trainees and also for expert trainers who can use it as support for face to face lessons and for distance and online courses.
The project‘s idea was based on the fact that in this period of crisis is important to raise the level of education in order to support the European economy and to increase the employment levels. The partners believe that successful entrepreneurial initiatives of young people can be also acquired from the results and experiences of a previous project called "Let's, Learning to learn", for senior workers.
