The general EntreCompFood learning pathway (D3.2)
February 2021
This section is the central part of the structuring of learning in the strategic action plan on learning opportunities. In summary we propose to integrate the general EntreCompFood learning pathway into the framework of existing training pathways in our partner institutions. We recommend that the pathway be integrated into project-based learning, allowing for strong learner involvement and the concrete implementation of the "soft skills" selected in the EntreCompFood project. In each institution, these projects may take different forms in terms of ambition, duration and expected skill levels. This type of "project-based" training will take on its full meaning when it is supplemented by an assessment to support learners, guide them, enable them to objectively assess their level and set realistic progression objectives.

The EntreComp playbook to help design practical entrepreneurial experience.
August 2020
The playbook is intended as learning exercise itself for those that have little or no experience in designing practical entrepreneurial experience. This EntreComp playbook therefore is not a process guide: it rather provides readers with a selection of orientation tools for them to experiment and create their own map to entrepreneurial teaching and learning. The playbook sets out nine principles that any entrepreneurial learning facilitator should consider when designing entrepreneurial teaching and learning. It also describes three popular entrepreneurial methods and three pedagogical methods that can be adapted to foster entrepreneurial learning.

Creating EntreCompFood Collaborative Community in France, Slovenia and Spain
June 2020
The food sector is facing new future challenges, such as how to provide, for growing population, enough healthy food produced in a sustainable way, with limited resources due to climate change. The Covid-19 has impacted also the food chain, which enlightened the need to be proactive and innovative in order to respond successfully to the new situation. Therefore the European agri-food industry wants to attract more young people, that will be able to succeed in tackling existing and future challenges we might face. Besides learning about the agriculture, the food and the nutrition, the future employees in agri-food industry should develop the entrepreneurship competence to stimulate proactive and innovative behaviour.
