The CATALYST “Inspire & Enable” Concept

The CATALYST project “European VET Excellence Centre for Leading Sustainable Systems and Business Transformation” is designed with a strong vision and motivation to contribute to the realisation of the European Green Deal and the new Industrial and SME Strategies.

The CATALYST “INSPIRE & ENABLE” Concept elaborates the concept of the CATALYST CoVE, its position, components and the establishment of the CATALYST Network.

The main goal is the establishment of a united CATALYST Centre of Vocational Excellence in 5 countries (North Macedonia, Greece, Austria, Germany and Portugal) to give support, create an educational offer to tackle personal and organisational development and embrace transformation in SMEs, enabling and inspiring them to re-think and re-design their business models, co-creating and sharing between educational and business organisations.

The CATALYST CoVEs will be positioned on a national level and united through the platform and the Network on a European level, with the aim to address pressing societal challenges and providing innovative approaches to enabling VET learners (professionals and students) to have high-quality education and get the needed support and inspiration to help SMEs in their business transformation.

CATALYST project is based on two pivotal components – “Enable” and “Inspire” – that are integral to achieving sustainable systems and transforming businesses. Both components are essential for the CATALYST CoVEs that will be established in this project, with strong peer-learning processes, capacity building and improving the human capital in several workshops and coaching sessions.
