The wait is finally over to hear the outcome of an Erasmus+ bid submitted to the EU in April, and I was delighted to find out that the bid was successful. I worked on, and submitted the bid as the lead researcher from the University of Worcester, alongside 8 other education providers, spread across 7 EU countries. The bid received €328,690 funding to develop the European Business Baccalaureate Diploma (EBBD), which is a qualification designed to develop European business skills and competencies for students seeking University admission.
My role in the project is centered on reviewing and evaluating the EBBD and the accreditation process of schools offering the award. The funding will allow myself to visit and work closely with partner institutions and use my pedagogic knowledge to support the development of the EBBD, which I am looking forward to.
