The project tasks will be organised into a number of specific work packages:
 |
Benchmarking will be carried out through distributing surveys to HEIs, intermediary and industry. The data collected from a minimum of 150 organisations and 12 HEIs will be analysed and compared among 3 participated countries. The findings will be presented in both written and video format. Sample questionnaire (ENG) University: co-operation & training /industry/ intermediary ~ (ESP) Universidad: cooperación &formación/ empresa/ intermediario Written contry report: Spain/ Austria/ UK Comparative report: Executive Summary in English (Spanish version here) & Full Report |

Having identified the needs in both supply (university) and demand (industry) sides, three schemes will be implemented targeting the universities, students and working adults. Industry-orientated Lifelong Learning Training Scheme: On-campus and self-learning short training courses on identified topic(s). For more on the learning materials, please see “E-courses”. Interdepartmental Scheme: Promote dialogues and determine new co-operation opportunities. Invited Professor Scheme: Industry representatives will be giving lectures at the universities. |
 |
The philosophy, methodology applied and results of GADGET will be widely disseminated to other HEIs in the 3 countries. Relevant stakeholders will be spotted and be informed project information on a regular basis, thanks to the project newsletters. The Cafe gives a chance for both university and industry to establish dialogue and improve the communication. |
