ECCE EXPLAINED The European Certificate in Community Enterprise (ECCE) is a new European-level vocational qualification developed by partners from UK, France, Spain, Sweden and Romania. During the life of the project they combined their knowledge and experience to create a relevant, flexible and needs- driven qualification to specifically support growth across Europe's Social Economy. ECCE also sets up a new Learning Network as a way of disseminating and mainstreaming ECCE and its specialist toolkit.
FUNDING FROM ERASMUS+ • Erasmus+ is the European Union programme for education, training, youth and sport. It runs for seven years, from 2014 to 2020, with organisations invited to apply for funding each year to undertake creative and worthwhile activities. • Erasmus+ aims to modernise education, training and youth work across Europe. It is open to education, training, youth and sport organisations across all sectors of lifelong learning, including school education, further and higher education, adult education and the youth sector. It offers exciting opportunities for UK participants to then study, work, volunteer, teach and train abroad in Europe.
