Dear EntreComp360 Community,

In 2020, you completed a survey to help us create a one-stop-shop for EntreComp. We would like to thank you for your invaluable contributions as we continue building the EntreComp community platform and the EntreComp360 tools and guides.

The 300+ survey responses have been evaluated to understand the needs of the EntreComp community, and we are now actively developing the learning platform and engagement channels that best support this community to develop, network, learn and share.

This email is about bringing you up to date with our work and sharing news and events taking place that are about or relevant to EntreComp and entrepreneurial learning. We include links for you to share your news and views back to us too.

More about the EntreComp Community Platform

Our goal is to create a community that will not only respond to your needs but will also involve you in the development. The platform is being generously supported by CDSM, the company behind the award-winning Thinqi learning management system – you can find out more about Thinqi in the link below.

With Thinqi behind us, as a community we will be able to build networks, profile projects and practices, share expertise and create online learning.

We will be sharing opportunities to hear more our plans and about CDSM/Thinqi via online focus groups during February and March, while the platform will be launched in Spring 2021. Watch this space!

Do you want to share your practices in future EntreComp guides?

The EntreComp360 practical guides are now in development – simple ‘how to’ guides on using EntreComp across specific areas. The first set of guides will focus on:

1. Non formal learning and youth-work
2. Assessment and recognition
3. Projects targeting women

If you have a project that fits one of these areas, we would love more information! You can share a brief overview (of any tool, project or practice) at the link below. You can also use the link to share any other practice you have – we are always interested to see what the EntreComp community is up to.

Looking for online learning and networking activities?

Drawing from some of the EntreComp related projects that our EntreComp360 partners are involved in, here are a few upcoming online events, training courses and webinars that might be interesting.
