Dear colleagues,

Concerning a presentation our feedback is that at slide 2 uses the word competences not skills, because in EU documents and education terminology means knowledge and skills and that is what we need.

I would also like to inform you that under regional program initiative, supported by DG ENLARG (supported by EU program) in Croatia is established South east European Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning (SEECEL) with aim to support increasing entrepreneurial capacities in SEE countries and development of entrepreneurial learning as a key competences.

One of SEECEL priorities is entrepreneurial learning in HE and furthermore development of Entrepreneurial University Based on expert work of European Training Foundation (ETF, European Agency) in area of entrepreneurial learning and developing policy indicators for introducing entrepreneurship as a key competence at university level, SEECEL will promote and support further developments in this respect.

ETF, as expert institution, developed indicators instrument in cooperation with HE experts from 15 countries and coordinated with DG Enterprise and DG Education and Culture Further information about this can give Mr Anthony Gribben who is a team leader of ETF Entrepreneurial Learning Team.

Our Chamber is closely included in work of SEECEL .
