EFCoCert participates to the ERASMUS+ Strategic Partnership MENTORCERT project

EFCoCert will participate between Nov 2017 and Oct 2019 in a new European ERASMUS+ project: MENTORCERT. The project proposal has been accepted by the Hungarian National agency in July 2017. This European project will be coordinated by the Budapest Business School

The MENTORCERT project has been proposed to follow an ongoing ERASMUS+ project TRUST ME – and a former ERASMUS + project CERTI4TRAIN -. TRUST ME developed skill cards and learning materials for SME business mentors. CERTI4TRAIN produced an ISO 17024 compliant trainer certification scheme. The MENTORCERT project consortium wish to use the mentioned projects to develop an international competence certification scheme for business mentors.

By developing this international certification competence scheme for business mentoring, the MENTORCERT project will help to overcome a lack of information on standards that are one of the most significant barriers to SME engagement across the EU.

The pre-kick-off meeting will take place on 6th September 2017 in Paris.
