MODERN - European Platform Higher Education Modernisation
MODERN is a three-year EU-funded project (2009-2011) under the Lifelong Learning Programme (ERASMUS), which aims to respond to the Modernisation Agenda of the European Union and to the need to invest in people, support future leaders and encourage the professionalisation of higher education management (HEM) at all levels.
Under the leadership of ESMU (European Centre for Strategic Management of Universities) MODERN is a consortium of 10 core and 29 associate partners joining forces to provide a common answer to the fragmentation in the supply of management development programmes and of organizational support to HEIs, their leaders and managers.
MODERN is a web-based community project. The European platform is intended as an interactive information and meeting point for HEM providers, experts, target group learners and interested stakeholders. Other activities of the platform will include a survey on needs and demands for HEM programmes, five thematic conferences (governance, funding, quality and internationalization, regional innovation and knowledge transfer) as well as peer learning activities.
