foRMAtion

The increasing competition for EU funds in the field of R&I projects the growing needs of the labour market for professional research support staff, and the shortage in research_management_administration (RMA) educational programmes, led to the realization of the foRMAtion (Innovative and smart module for potential Research Managers and Administrators in higher education) project. foRMAtion aims to support students in higher education as potential Research Managers and Administrators (RMAs) by reinforcing the high-level and transversal skills needed for developing and managing excellent European research, innovation and educational projects.

The mission

To fulfil this ambitious mission, foRMAtion gathers highly experienced organizations from five European countries supplemented by seven Advisory Board members. The partners have different scientific backgrounds and longstanding experience in education and research management. The partners will work together to carry out the project’s activities; to accomplish this they will hold regular online and in-person meetings too.

The objectives

Based on these identified needs, foRMAtion seeks to achieve the following objectives:

• Collecting and evaluating good practices in the field of RMA training from different EU countries;
• Developing innovative tools, educational and training methods for the empowerment of potential students;
• RMAs among HEI students to acquire the necessary knowledge & skills (both soft & hard) as well as to support their career development;
• Making the profession of research management and administration attractive and raising awareness on the importance of RMAs, contributing to the preparation and implementation of excellent European educational and research projects.
