About the project
Flexible Up-skilling pathways for professionals in the field of tourism (2019-1-SK01-KA204-060777) is a KA2 project in the field of adult education, co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme. The project is led by the Slovak organisation Klaster Regionálneho Rozvoja (Cluster of Regional Development) and four partner organisations: Centro Superior de Formación Europa Sur (Spain), Institute of Entrepreneurship Development (Greece), Cittá Metropolitana di Catania (Italy) and parkPark (Slovakia).
The project has a double aim: on one hand, to identify the skills and competences gaps in the tourism sector and on the other, to promote flexible up-skilling pathways for professionals in the tourism sector and provide them with an appealing and interactive programme that will combine the use of technology with flexible learning environments.
Our project started on November 1st 2019 and will last until October 31st 2021.
