In order to address the needs expressed in this project, the first Intellectual Output will be the development of an Entrepreneurship Training Course for Mentors and Pupils with a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) approach.

It will be developed according to the needs of pupils with intellectual and developmental difficulties (IDD).

To be able to create a strong and sustainable course we need:

– to identify and create tools for mentors that work with this population;

– to develop interactive and visual contents in order to increase students’ motivation;

– to understand the needs of the labour market were our participants can take an important role;

– to develop contents that help strengthening labour skills, both for employment and self-employment.

We’ll assess the skills with a European Commission tool called “EntreComp: The Entrepreneurship Competence Framework”.

This course will be developed in an Innovative and Enhanced way, using various multimedia content (text, images, audio and/or video) using the best practices of accessibility and usability (e.g. HTML5). By using a MOOC approach we’ll hope it ensures an easier way for students to access and use, but also increases the transferability of the contents.
