Dissemination / valorisation plan and activities

DISSEMINATION / VALORISATIONPLAN AND ACTIVITIES

PRESENTED BY DR SHYAM PATIAR

INTRODUCTION

“Valorisation” can be described as a process of

exploiting project learning and outcomes (training

products and processes, methodology, course

materials etc.) with a view to optimising their value

and impact in existing and new contexts (target

groups, companies, sectors, training institutions and

systems etc). To be effective, the process requires:

•A focus on end user / target group needs from project inception;

•Dissemination of innovative training products and results;

•Selection and analysis of their suitability for transfer to meet

identified new needs;

•Translation and adaption to targeted new contexts;

•Piloting and experimentation;

•Leading to full integration into the new context.

This process can take place at the micro project level or on a macro

level, with the aim of achieving full and sustainable integration into

local, regional, national and / or European training systems and

practices, including through formal certification of qualifications.
