Learning Circle

Supporting the development of circular economy entrepreneurship

About

The Learning Circle project aims to support the emergence of innovative circular economy entrepreneurs. Even though innovative entrepreneurs come from varied backgrounds, they share common traits, motives, and competences. They also play an important role in boosting economies around the world and their importance cannot be overstated. True entrepreneurs are serial innovators who leave a portfolio of successful and not-so-successful ventures behind them at the end of their career. Supporting the growth of innovative circular economy entrepreneurs through vocational education can therefore achieve a positive and lasting impact.

Resources

The Learning Circle project is developing four innovative education and digital tools to support innovative entrepreneurs, namely:

In-service training for VET tutors
