Our Objectives
The main objective of RECAPHE is to strengthen the profile of applied RDI in PHE in Europe, by:
- Gaining insight into the scope and nature of applied RDI activities within PHE institutions in Europe
- Distinguishing the different competences required of applied researchers
- Assisting researchers in RDI to enhance their capacities
- Providing a clear future vision for applied RDI in Europe and a strategy on how to achieve it
Our Strategy
To accomplish our Objectives, we will
Develop staff competence profiles for research & innovation, by:
- Screening RDI activities conducted by Professional Higher Education Institutions in Europe
- Developing staff competence profiles for RDI to clearly distinguish the different competences that are required from applied research and innovation in Professional Higher Education Institutions
Create training materials for PHE research & innovation professionals, by:
- Defining specific learning activities based on the defined staff competences for research & innovation, which can be used to acquire these competences, structured as a common curriculum
- Creating a course aimed at staff and students who are engaged in research & innovation, made up of a set of modular online micro-learning units, each of which will allow participants to master a specific competence relevant to their requirements
Compile a report on RDI for PHE, by:
- Summarising the results of RECAPHE project, including the structured list of RDI skills and a concise description of the RECAPHE course modules
- Formulating policy recommendations related to the distinct profile of RDI research with suggestions on how this profile may be strengthened within institutions, regions, countries and on the European level
