Welcome to this training course engineering module

Description

With this online training course you will learn about the main concerns in training course engineering.

You will discover the interest of this approach to building or renovating training, and the major steps that can be taken to ensure that training is adapted to the needs of the job market. Although these approaches and tools have been sufficiently developed in the context of continuing education or technical and vocational training, they are still rare in higher education, whose actors are nevertheless increasingly questioning its role in the professionalization of students.

This training session has been created as part of the AsiFood project as part of the program called Erasmus+ "Capacity building". The 13 project partners, including 5 European universities, three Thai universities and three Vietnamese universities and 2 Cambodian universities have worked to professionalize their training programs and practices.

The financial backing for the project has been provided by the European Union's « Erasmus + » programme. The European Commission has an active policy for cooperation in education (higher education in particular) and training with non-European Union (EU) countries, with five main priorities:

• To advance the EU as a centre of excellence in education and training

• To support partner countries outside the EU in their modernisation efforts

• To promote common values and closer understanding between different peoples and cultures

• To support Member States and higher education institutions in the EU and beyond in their internationalisation efforts

• To improve the quality of services and human resources in the EU and beyond through mutual learning, comparison and exchange of good practice.

The responsibility for the overall coordination of the project lies with the Montpellier SupAgro Department : DEFIS (Development, Expertise, Training and Agricultural Engineering for southern countries) based at the Institute for Higher Education in Tropical and Sub-Tropical Agri-Food Sciences (IRC).

Objectives
