INTRODUCTION

Project:
SAVE - STIMULATING AND VALIDATING DIGITAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP AS THE BEST
WAY TO INCREASING THE QUALITY OF START-UPS

CONTEXT OF PROJECT
Industry 4.0 is expected to boost the productivity and value added of European
industries and stimulate economic growth. As part of its new Digital Single Market
Strategy, the European Commission wants to help all industrial sectors exploit new
technologies and manage a transition to a smart, Industry 4.0 industrial system.
The project aim is to strengthen the quality of start-uppers, young entrepreneurs
and VET providers, and enhance their professional development through improving
digital entrepreneurship competences, as well as give them the opportunity to
validate these competences and adapt to VET environment. This project (unlike
other projects) is focused not only on target groups that want to establish or
develop their own start-up, but also on young entrepreneurs and their VET trainers
or providers. This is an example of a systemic approach to the problem of start-ups
staff education, as well as developing the Entrepreneurial Digital.

OVERALL PURPOSE OF THE CURRICULUM
The present Curriculum is the answer for the diagnosed problem of
maladjustment of presented subjects to real needs of start-uppers, young
entrepreneurs and VET providers. The start point of the diagnosis was the
definition of skills and competences related with implementation of the Industry
4.0 idea in present business. The main questions related the detailed issues which
could be important with the Industry 4.0, and ensuring the complexity of presented
content. Most of the currently available VET programs do not foresee the
development of the skills mentioned in previous point. Therefore, the project
Consortium has identified the need to build on the content and resources within,
for VET learners to acquire adequate competences to participate on the labour
market in the Industry 4.0 sector.

OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of the Curriculum are:
• Develop the basic and specific competencies of start-uppers, young
entrepreneurs and VET providers in the sphere of Industry 4.0;
