YOUTH, BUSINESS AND MULTILINGUISM – LEADING THE CHANGE
The multilingual policy adopted by Europe refers to the fact that the identity of Europe can only be represented adequately by respecting its diversity. It is really necessary for the European younger generation to be able to compare themselves with all the other European citizens, using common units of measurement. Coming forth, a new European Commission study on the internationalization of Small and Medium Enterprises shows how languages can be relevant in the internationalisation of European SMEs. Especially with young generation of entrepreneurs (supported by Erasmus programme) within this undertaking, there is a compulsory component: foreign language skills.
Therefore, European Language Certification becomes a must for any young graduate willing to adjust his/her new business to the European arena.
Thus, E.C.L. certificates (E.C.L.-European Consortium for Language Certification) offer a diploma constructed along the standards and norms underlying the Common European Framework of References in teaching and learning foreign languages, a document issued by The European Council which ensures a unitary homogenous coherent framework in assessing all the five language skills, separately.
We are going to answer a few questions, such as: What is the ECL certificate? Which are its uses, advantages, and above all, its specific features for supporting the entrepreneurial effort of a young in the light of European Commission? How do certified language skills boost employment prospects and mobility of individuals?
There will also be a sharing of experience of the speaker as Host Entrepreneur with European Commission looking at the benefits that multilingualism provides.

Se relanseaza finantarile prin POS DRU

Recent au fost anuntate noile apeluri pentru proiectele prin care companiile pot sa-si finanteze programele de instruire pe bani europeni.
Potrivit reprezentantilor Autoritatii de Management a POS DRU, “…angajaţii din firmele private pot fi trimişi la training gratuit, pe bani europeni, prin trei modalităţi:
- fie angajatorul lor este membru al unui patronat care a accesat bani europeni pentru instruirea angajaţilor din sectorul de activitate respectiv;
- fie angajaţii companiei sunt membri într-un sindicat care a câştigat un proiect cu finanţare europeană şi care să aibă ca obiectiv formarea profesională;
- fie prin intermediul unei firme de training care a accesat fonduri pentru HR”.
Aici gasiti calendarul lansarilor pe anul 2010, cu primul apel in luna august 2010.

Stadiul absorbtiei Instrumentelor Structurale la data de 30 aprilie 2010
May 7th
Autoritatea pentru Coordonarea Instrumentelor Structurale a publicat situatia proiectelor depuse, aprobate, respectiv a platilor efectuate catre beneficiari, la data de 30 aprilie 2010.
Astfel, pe POS DRU, care are alocati aproximativ 1,5 miliarde euro, s-au depus aproximativ 5500 de proiecte, din care 3300 au fost respinse (!). 570 proiecte sunt in curs de evaluare iar 1700 au fost aprobate. Mentionam ca cifrele sunt aduse la intreg pentru a crea o imagine rapida.
Plati efective catre beneficiari – 6% din alocarea pentru perioada 2007-2010.
Avem doua intrebari la care va invitam sa va exprimati parerea:
1. De ce sunt respinse atat de multe proiecte (3300 din total 5500 depuse)?
2. De ce nivelul platilor efective ramane asa redus?
(informatii preluate de la adresa www.fonduri-ue.ro).
European SME Week 2010
Apr 20th
Proactive Communication, furnizor de cursuri de dezvoltare antreprenoriala acreditat CNFPA, va organiza in cadrul editiei 2010 a European SME Week un workshop intitulat “Antreprenoriatul – spirit innascut sau competenta de achizitionat?”.
Acest atelier urmareste sa identifice, pentru grupul tinta format din studenti, ce inseamna sa fii antreprenor – daca vorbim de ceva innascut sau ceva ce se poate dezvolta prin (auto)educare. Participantii vor fi incurajati sa-si exprime ideile (experientele) de afaceri si modul in care urmaresc sa le puna in aplicare. De asemenea vor fi prezentate posibilitatile pentru finantarea afacerilor, din fonduri nationale si europene, precum si organismele si retelele de sprijin antreprenorial la nivel european.
Mai multe informatii sau oferte de colaborare la office@proactivecommunication.ro, cu subiectul European SME Week 2010.
Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs – succes validat de Comisia Europeana
Apr 15th
Intre 12-
13 aprilie s-a desfasurat la Bruxelles Conferinta “Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs” – programul pilot pentru dezvoltarea spiritului antreprenorial si intarirea parteneriatelor intre cei care au sau doresc sa initieze o afacere in Uniunea Europeana.
Participantii la lucrarile conferintei (oficiali UE, antreprenori – gazda si antreprenori – vizitatori, organisme intermediare, alte parti interesate) au apreciat succesul inregistrat de program pana acum si au evidentiat urmatoarele aspecte pentru imbunatatirea programului:
- cresterea vizibilitatii programului inclusiv online;
- dezvoltarea unei platforme dedicate, baza de date comuna si grupuri de dialog pentru cei implicati in proiect;
- modificarea numelui “brandului” – eliminarea cuvantului “Young” care face trimitere la studenti, fiind vorba de Erasmus – astfel limitand gradul de partundere si expunerea mediatica, precum si zona de interes;
- necesitatea cresterii finantarii programului;
- cresterea atractivitatii programului pentru antreprenorii-gazda.
Aceste concluzii au fost inaintate Comisiei Europene, iar in urma analizei si validarii propunerilor aceasta va cere Parlamentului European cresterea substantiala a bugetului programului si permanentizarea acestuia. (www.euractiv.com).
Compania Proactive Communication, in calitate de Host Entrepreneur, va continua sa sprijine acest program prin implicarea in schimburile de antreprenori si multiplicarea de informatii relevante.
Noutati POS-DRU: In loc de apeluri pentru proiecte, suspendari
Apr 6th
Recent Comisia Europeana a anuntat suspendarea temporara a platilor catre AMPOSDRU – autoritatea de management a programului de finantare pentru resurse umane. Aceasta pentru finalizarea unui audit inceput anul trecut, care sa releve de ce se acceseaza asa greoi fondurile prin POS DRU iar rata procentuala de absorbtie se incapataneaza sa se situeze la o cifra la 3 ani de la startul programului.
Pe de alta parte oficialii romani sustin ca nu sunt probleme, platile se vor face, beneficiarii nu vor fi afectati.
Noi spunem doar QUO VADIS, POS DRU?
