Abstract: | Todays development of knowledge and technology calls for ‘an engineering diploma with a service contract’. The service should include general updating, upgrading as well as custom-made training. This service can only be ensured Europe wide through European networks of universities, enterprises, professional organizations and government bodies. EuraSCOPE is a pan European network for the selection, development and Europe-wide dissemination of advanced training courses in technology and management. EuraSCOPE specializes in short courses with a European dimension, develops models for the combination of live courses with multi-media and distance training and contributes short courses to modular curricula. EuraSCOPE submitted the COMETT Cb project proposal ‘EuraSCOPE—Cb EQUAL’. The goal is the development, testing and promotion of a European total quality assurance system for short courses ( EQUAL: European Quality Label). |
