Trainings for life

Higher education plays an important role in development of all countries. Properly educated and trained employees are the basis of successful businesses. However are the higher education institutions aware of the real training needs of the industry, or they simply deliver education according their curriculums which were developed some years ago? The main aim of the TEMPUS Project No 144596 Higher Education Learning Partnerships (HELP) is to establish learning partnerships in transitional countries of South Eastern Europe between higher education and enterprises. For that purpose training needs of industries were evaluated using short questionnaire, and furthermore through direct discussion with representatives from the food industry which is of greatest interest for HELP partnership in Croatia. Short programmes encompassing combination of up-to-date theoretical information and practical examples were chosen as the most convenient method of training delivery. As a result specific trainings should increase the quality and availability of skills needed by local enterprise, encourage innovation, increase competitiveness and raise productivity and economic growth on the local level. Additionally, international character and partnerships between HELP partner countries should improve mobility and therefore employability of trained workers on the regional level.
