D.2. Cooperation arrangements, management and communication
This part must only be completed once by the applicant.
D.2.1 - Project management
Please define the organisation of the implementation of the project and the division of tasks between the partners. Please explain the allocation of resources for each activity. Explain also how the tasks are distributed amongst the partners and how project "ownership" is ensured (limit 3000 characters).
|UPKM will undertake activities to ensure sound management of the project and will perform the duties of coordinator of the project. Project |
|will be operationally managed by Project ManagementCommittee (PMC) that will organise and coordinate work in all work packages. For each |
|Working Package the representative of the appropriate institution will take the lead and coordinate the activities and tasks with PMC, hence |
|the PMC will consist of project coordinator and work packages' leaders. Because each WP leader will be representative of different HEI, PMC |
|will consist of representatives of all partner institutions. PMC meetings will be held four times per year. |
|The fulfilment of the defined activities will be monitored and controlled by the Steering Committee (SC). SC will be composed of experienced |
|management representatives, one from each country (both: programme and partner countries). SC meetings will be held twice a year and this body |
|will be responsible for monitoring, controlling and guiding the project activities. |
|Because the due dates, the content and the time period for all tasks, activities and deliverables will be clearly defined it will be easy for |
|the work packages' leaders to manage the project tasks and to inform each other about project progress. By using the communication tools |
|(email, Skype, project web site and others) and by organising periodical meetings, the project control will be established. |
|By controlling the progress of activities, the work package leaders and other participants will provide an early warning system to identify |
|deviations from the work plan and try to establish contingency plans. The day-to-day management will ensure performance of the tasks according |
|to the project plan and thus reducing the risks of deviations from the plan. If some deviations occur the online meetings will be organised in |
|order to handle problems, find solutions and follow up on agreed activities. |
D.2.2 - Cooperation and communication arrangements of the consortium
Please explain the overall project and partnership management making specific reference to the management plan and how decisions will be taken. Please describe how permanent and effective communication and reporting will be ensured as well as the measures put in place for conflict resolution (limit 2000 characters).
|The Project ManagementCommittee(PMC) will operationally manage the execution of the project activities. Members of PMC will be WP leaders and |
|they will coordinate the executions of each WP activities across different institutions. The WP leaders will also be the Heads of local teams -|
|representatives of the each Consortium member who will champion and highlight project objectives and coordinate human resources for the success|
|of the project. |
|The communication will go in two directions: 1) horizontally within the WP from the WP leader to the WP members, and vice versa, from the WP |
|member to WP leader and PMC; and 2) vertically in top-down direction: PMC – Heads of local teams – local team members and in opposite |
|direction: team members – Heads of local teams – PMC. |
|The communication on execution of the tasks within one working package will be coordinated by the WP leader that will manage WP members’ tasks |
|and collect the information on progress of activities and report to the PMC. All members of the project will try to complete the tasks |
|according to the project plan and will inform WP head and local team head about the activities performed, completed and eventual problems. The |
|heads will then inform all PMC members on regular basis officially by emails and by phones or online messengers (Skype, Lync, Viber, etc) if |
|some problems need urgent attention. If some activities will late then the PMC will alarm SC members in order to intervene to appropriate team |
|members. The deliverables will pass control chain: WP leader – PMC – QC – SC. |
|Also, the regular periodic meetings of PMCand SC will be synchronised parallel with study visits in EU partner institutions and when lecturing |
|of EU staff to WB institutions in order to save travelling costs. |
PART E - Project characteristics and relevance
E.1. Why does the consortium wish to undertake this project?
Please outline the motivation behind your project, clearly identifying the specific needs or problem/s which it intends to solve. Explain how the project proposal fits within the development strategies of the Partner Countries involved and how it addresses the priorities defined at national / regional level. Also explain why this/these problem/s were selected instead of others. In particular, explain how the area of intervention has been explored to guarantee that the project is offering something new compared to the existing situation. Where applicable, explain any synergy with other EU initiatives should be highlighted (limit 5000 characters).
|The project is based on the fact that there is alack of experts in the area of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the Western |
|Balkan countries, especially in broadcast and broadband technologies. |
|The reasonlies in rapidincreasing of the number of Radio and TV stations in transition period of these countries. The lack of the |
|professionalsimpacts on lower quality of multimedia services. A large number of Broadcasting stations in Kosovo*, Serbia and Bosnia and |
|Herzegovina do not respect quality standards for the moving images, sound and multimedia. The main reason is broadcasting of analogue signal. |
|Transfer to the digital broadcasting would solve the problem of multimedia quality. |
|All European and the Western Balkan countries committed to start digital terrestrial broadcasting by June 17th 2015 the latest (by the acts of |
|the Regional Radiocommunication conference in Geneva (RRC-06) organised by International Telecommunication Union (ITU)) and stop with analogue |
|broadcasting of TV signal. Many European countries have already started digital broadcasting and they already have some new digital services |
|parallel to digital TV and Radio. The countries of south-east Europe: Serbia, Montenegro, Romania, Albania and Greece have already started the |
|process of transferring to digital broadcasting, but Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo*have not yet. According to the data of National Agencies|
|for Radiocommunication, 21 TV and 83 Radio stations need to start digital broadcasting in Kosovo* (Independent media commission: |
|kpm-), 43 TV and 141 Radio station in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Communications Regulatory Agency BiH: rak.ba), 319 Radio stations |
|in Serbia (Regulatory Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services: ratel.rs), 52 Radio stations in Montenegro (Agency for |
|Electronic Media of Montenegro: ), 79 Radio stations in Macedonia (The Agency for electronic communications: aek.mk), and 69 |
|Radio stations in Albania (Authority for electronic communications and postal services: akep.al). One of the reasons why digital |
|broadcasting is not completed is the lack of experts and experience in this area. The number of specialists in WB countries is low compared to |
|the number of Digital services needed. By transferring to the digital broadcasting, the frequency range occupied by analogue broadcasting can |
|be used for: digital TV, Radio, digital services, digital TV for mobiles and other services with multimedia content. Also, some additional |
|broadband technologies can be used in this frequency spectrum. Broadband services (internet TV, 3G and 4G networks for mobile devices) in WB |
|countries are implemented partially and compared to the EU countries in arrears in both: quality and quantity of services. The WB countries |
|that aim to join EU will have to increase quality of broadcast and broadband services according to the standards of EU countries. |
|The goal of the proposed project is implementation of the master study programme that would enable education of the specialists needed for the |
|process of digitising, maintenance of the digital systems and introduction of new broadcast and broadband technologies in line with the needs |
|of enterprises – potential employers. The curriculum of the study programme will be implemented in master studies in Kosovo*, Serbia and Bosnia|
|and Herzegovina. The study programme will be certified (accredited) by National certification bodies for Higher education. The project will |
|cover establishing of the infrastructure (organisational, methodological and technical) for implementation of developed study programmes. The |
|EU programme partners would help with their experience in described area and thus successfully contribute to the implementation of the study |
|programme. Also some Broadcast companies from the partner countries as project partners would help with description of the needs for the |
|expected specialists. |
|The proposed project is in line with Regional Priorities for Joint & Structural Projects (Erasmus+ KA2 – Capacity Building in Higher Education)|
|for the Region 1 (Western Balkan) and is related to the„Improving quality of education and teaching“ and area „Engineering and engineering |
|trades (Telecommunication technologies)“. |

|order to speed up digitising of broadcast services. Graduated students will also be capable to implement and maintain modern and improve |
|existing Broadcast and Broadband Communication Systems. In this way, the long-term sustainability would be achieved. In order to students |
|acquire theoretical and practical knowledge to be immediately applied in the business, the laboratory with appropriate hardware and software |
|equipment for analysis and design of broadcasting and broadband systems with digital multimedia HDTV studio and environment for implementation |
|of digital services would be created. The education of the experts would improve existing state in the area of digital technologies |
|(particularly in digitising of Radio and TV and improving of multimedia broadband services) in WB countries in accordance with the principles |
|of EU best practice. The mentioned project objectives would have positive impact on the current situation in the field of digital |
|communications technologies in Kosovo*, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia through the mandatory digitisation of broadcast services according to|
|standards established by competent international organizations and adopted also by the EU. The development of digital communications |
|technologies would be followed by activation of other business entities in the Western Balkans. |
|The activities graduated students will be able to do are: development of the multimedia applications on smart phones and tablets, applications |
|for smart TV, modelling of IP and wireless networks and wave propagation, etc. |
PART F - Quality of the project design and implementation
F.1. Aims and objectives
Please define the concrete aims and objectives of the project and describe the ways in which the situation set out under the previous section (Part E) will be changed (limit 3000 characters).
|The aims and objectives of the project are: introducing the new master study programmes for academic and vocational studies in the field of |
|Digital Broadcasting and Broadband Technologies (DBBT) that will be in the line with needs of business partners from the labour market from the|
|region and in line with modern study programmes from EU countries. The students will be able to apply their knowledge (practical and |
|theoretical) immediately after graduation. |
|In the kick-off meeting the management bodies and WP leaders will be elected and the complete plan of activities with detailed schedule will be|
|presented to all partners. Also, the initial workshops will be organised then. In order to rich the aims and objectives, both teams – from EU |
|and Western Balkan countries will analyse study programmes of counterparts, compare them and with the help of business partners from the labour|
|market define the guidelines for design of new curricula. Also, the representatives of WB countries will through study visits to EU partner |
|HEis and trainings by experienced EU professors gain enough knowledge to design the curricula for new study programmes and start teaching in |
|newly introduced study programme as soon as WB HEIs got accreditation from National accreditation body. The knowledge that students will gain |
|through the studies will not be only theoretical, but also practical because the DBBT laboratory will be set up during the project. Also, the |
|partnership protocol will be signed between HEIs and regional business partners for the students’ internships and among partner HEIs for |
|long-term cooperation on teachers’ and students’ mobility. |
F.2. Project activities and Methodology
Please define the activities proposed and the working methodology (project activities/developments including educational and training content and pedagogical approach) to be used for achieving the objectives, including major milestones, measurable indicators, etc. (limit 6000 characters).
|The goal of this project is developing curricula for academic and vocational master studies in the field of DBBT. The new curricula will be in |
|line with those used at the world's leading schools in the relevant fields of study and consistent with the Europe 2020 strategy, the Strategic|
|Framework for European Cooperation in Education and Training and the Bologna process. Curricula of academic and vocational master studies will |
|be introduced in order to provide knowledge in the field of DBBT and to educate students for using, designing and developing solutions in the |
|field of DBB technologies. |
|All courses in curricula will be taught using contemporary teaching methods, such as problem based learning, game based learning, case study |
|method, etc. Courses will be organised using blended learning concept – a combination of traditional and e-learning concepts. All course |
|materials and activities will be available to students through a distance learning system. During their studies, students will be involved in |
|practical work and internships in broadcast & broadband companies that participate in the project. |
|In order to students gain theoretical and practical knowledge that can be applied immediately after the graduation, two laboratories will be |
|set up: the laboratory with appropriate hardware and software infrastructure for analysis of broadcasting& broadband technologies and, digital |
|multimedia HDTV studio with appropriate equipment needed for implementation of digital multimedia services. |
|Students will be involved in project implementation at several levels: |
|- on internal meetings in each high education institution students will be informed about the project progress. They will give suggestions and |
|recommendations for all phases of study programme development and implementation |
|- students feedback on introduced study programmes will be one of the main indicators of the project quality |
|- students will be actively involved in promotion of developed study programmes. |
|Since the project involves a number of partners and a number of activities, ensuring smooth execution and coordination of these activities as |
|well as managing all stakeholders are important project management tasks. The basic project management approach is to have an |
|operationalProject Management Committee (PMC) and the Steering Committee (SC). The SC willconsist of staff with significant management |
|experience that will be responsible for monitoring and guiding the project activities. The PMC will consist of representatives of each partner |
|institution and these representatives will be leaders of some work packages. In this way the operational management body – PMC will always |
|manage daily activities and be familiar with the progress of each task. Precise milestones and delivery dates as well as the content of the |
|deliverables are defined in a detailed project plan. Project control will be established, supported by communications tools and an Internet |
|collaboration platform. A self-check mechanism for the work package leaders and other participants will provide an early warning system to |
|identify deviations from the work plan and make it possible to establish contingency plans. The objective of the day-to-day management is to |
|keep the project always closely aligned with the project plan and reduce the risks associated with project activities. Individual effort for |
|administration of the project should stay at a minimum, including the number of meetings necessary to control the project. Phone/online |
|meetings will be used for regular interaction with the research partners and follow up of activities performed on their sites. |
|Project will be coordinated by Project Management Committee (PMC), who will organize and coordinate work in all work packages. PMC meetings |
|will be held four times per year. |
|Work on the project will be monitored and controlled by Steering Committee (SC). Final versions of all project deliverables will be evaluated |
|and accepted by SC, or improved until accepted. SC meetings will be held twice a year. |
|The objective for the decisions making process is to achieve consensus in all relevant issues. The project management will try to prevent all |
|conflicts, sometimes serving as a mediator between parties and help to find a mutual settlement, but in the case when management cannot solve |
|conflicts, the final steps of conflict resolution will be arbitration and/or court case. |
|All activities in the project will be organised through the work packages that represent logical units of work. In the first year of project |
|implementation will be set up methodological bases for curricula development, curriculum for academic and vocational master studies will be |
|developed, methodology for implementation of study programmes will be set up, equipment will be purchased and installed in labs. Second year of|
|project implementation will include activities concerning the introduction of study programmes: accreditation at National Accreditation |
|offices, intensive promotion in high schools and HEIs, training of the teachers and enrolment of students. Third year will consist of |
|activities of teaching and learning within innovated and designed study programmes, as well as evaluation of students’ success and their |
|feedback. Activities concerning dissemination, quality planning and project management will be performed continuously during the project |
|implementation. |
F.3. Budget and cost effectiveness
Please describe the strategy adopted to ensure that the proposed results and objectives will be achieved in the most economical way and on time. Explain the principals of budget allocation amongst partners. Indicate the arrangements adopted for financial management and what co-financing modalities are planned (limit 3000 characters).
|- Individual effort for administration of the project should stay at a minimum, including the number of meetings necessary to control the |
|project, |
|- in order to achieve efficient coordination of project activities, the ICT will be used for communication (email, phone, Skype, Lync, Viber, |
|etc.) whenever possible, |
|- when travelling, activities from several work packages and tasks will be joined (i.e. development activities with project management |
|activities), to avoid multiple travel costs and the cheapest available transport means will be used, whenever possible (buses, low cost |
|airlines, etc.) |
|- the local leaders will be also the leaders of the working packages so the number of management staff will be reduced and thus save the costs |
|- cheap, but efficient methods for dissemination, such as web and social networks, will be used in largest possible extent |
|- the resources for study visits and teachers training will overlap and it will save the costs for travelling, |
|- whenever needed the institution will co-finance the manpower, environment for decent work and other expenses, organisation of the workshops, |
|dissemination etc. |
|Budget will be allocated among partners with respect to their activities and engagement in project implementation. Because of the decision to |
|implement a regional studio for training in FTNKM, financial resources assigned to FTNKM are proportionally higher. Financial management |
|activities will be performed by project coordinator, but will be monitored and controlled by internal financial audit and by Steering |
|Committee. |
F.4. Quality control and Monitoring
Please explain what mechanisms have been put in place for ensuring the quality of the project and how the evaluation will be carried out. Please define the specific quality measures established, as well as the benchmarks and indicators foreseen to verify the outcome of the action. Make sure that the information in this section is consistent with the project Logical Framework Matrix (limit 3000 characters).
|Quality control and Monitoring will be performed in the following way: |
|- The Quality control plan will be developed and approved in the start of the project; |
|- The activities of work packages will result in formal deliverables that are committed in the workplan. The tasks of the project management |
|will be to assure the work on the deliverables respects the timeframes defined; |
|-The technical and editorial review process will be performed before the deliverables are submitted to the Commission; Each deliverable will be|
|drafted by responsible team, sent to the all parties in charge, comments will be collected and deliverable appropriately modified. The |
|pre-final draft deliverable will be submitted to the project management chain: WP leader - PMC - QC for editing; The editing will be done in |
|order to be achieved readability and high quality of the content; The final step will be a Steering committee approval; A last round of changes|
|might be then necessary before the deliverable will be submitted to the European Commission Project Officer and the Reviewers. |
|- Student evaluations will be performed each semester to collect and analyse data about developed study programmes |
|- Innovated and new study programmes will be accredited at National accreditation offices – in this process the “external control” of prepared |
|study programme will be implemented by National accreditation office – the study programme will be certified only if it fulfil national and |
|regional quality standards. |
|- Recognition on national and international level will be achieved through encouraging students’ and teachers’ mobility programmes. |
PART G - Impact, dissemination and exploitation, sustainability
G.1. Expected impact of the project
Please explain who will use these project outputs / products / results and how the consortium will reach them. Describe how the target groups (including participating institutions, stakeholders) will be reached and involved during the life of the project and how the project will benefit the target group at local, regional, national and or European level. Please structure your description according to the different levels of impact and stakeholders (limit 3000 characters).
|The final goal of the project is implementation of the master study programme that will enable education of specialists (experts) needed to be |
|involved in the process of transfer of analogue to digital broadcasting, maintenance of digital systems and introducing of new broadcasting and|
|broadband technologies. After the graduation, students will be able to apply acquired knowledge in the labour market. In this way the process |
|of digitizing the broadcast services will be accelerated. Also, the students graduated on these studies will be able to introduce and maintain |
|modern and to improve existing broadcasting and broadband communication systems. Students will also gain the knowledge needed for development |
|of applications for smart phones, smart TV and to deliver those applications over Internet or DVB-T. |
|In order to students gain theoretical and practical knowledge that can be applied immediately after the graduation, two laboratories will be |
|set up for this study programme: the laboratory with appropriate hardware and software infrastructure for analysis of broadcasting & broadband |
|technologies and, digital multimedia HDTV studio with appropriate equipment needed for implementation of digital multimedia services. |
|Because some local WB broadcasting& broadband companies will be involved in the project as project partners, the initial cooperation with the |
|labour market will be introduced through the model of student internship. The rich experience of EU HEIs in the field of DBBT will be also |
|considered and implemented during the project. |
Please describe how the target groups (including participating institutions, stakeholders) will be reached after the project is finished (limit 3000 characters).
|After the finish of the project, the academic sustainability will be achieved by introducing procedures and recommendations for permanent |
|improvement of developed study programmes. The financial sustainability will be achieved through the award of scholarships to the best students|
|from government and business companies and through including the study programmes in existing government financial programs. Study programmes |
|will be also financed by “own source” resources because some students will have to pay the scholarship by themselves. The planned activity |
|within the project is also signing of the long term cooperation agreements between HEIs and relevant stakeholders like: business companies, |
|state bodies, social associations, NGOs etc. |
|On local and regional level, the graduated students of the new study programme will improve existing state in the field of Digital Technologies|
|(particularly in digitisation of radio and television and in improvement of multimedia broadband services) in the WB countries in line with the|
|EU best practice principles. The results would be visible in the area of Digital communications in Kosovo*, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia |
|through mandatory digitisation of broadcast services according to the standards of international organisations that are also accepted by EU. |
|The development of the digital communication technologies would be followed by activating and some other business companies in the WB |
|countries. |

G.2. Dissemination and exploitation strategy
Please explain how the dissemination will be organised and how exploitation activities will ensure optimal use of the results within the project's lifetime and after. Explain the roles, responsibilities and target groups (limit 3000 characters).
|Knowledge transfer and dissemination is one of the core activities of the project. There are two aspects of this activity: internal and |
|external. Internal dissemination activities primarily targets internal project resources and teachers and students working for the project |
|member organisations with the aim to transfer knowledge among partners. Workshops, meetings and visits are the main tools used in these |
|activities. External dissemination activities are the standard dissemination activities targeting wider community, local companies and general |
|public with the aim to promote project, its results, and project participants. The main tools of external dissemination are presentations, |
|lectures and demos at workshops, exhibitions and different media channels like Web, TV and newspapers. Some of the dissemination activities |
|will be open to public and will contribute to external dissemination efforts as well. The project deliverables will be available at the project|
|web site. Social networks shall be utilised to the furthest extent possible to spread the information about the project to the experts in the |
|field (using LinkedIn) and to reach student population (using Facebook and Twitter). It is aim of the project to make all project deliverables |
|public. The web site will contain a private area open to all project team members as well where project information and documents including |
|minutes, plans, results and background information can be easily accessed. Effective dissemination will also be achieved by including students |
|in dissemination process. Students trained during the project implementation will present their experiences at meetings, conferences, web site |
|and to enterprises. |
G.3. Sustainability
Explain how the impact of this project will be sustained beyond its lifetime. Please list the outcomes that you consider sustainable and describe the strategy to ensure their long lasting use beyond the project's life - financially, institutionally and policy level. Also explain how the results will be mainstreamed and multiplied in the sector of activity and in the participating institutions. Describe the strategy foreseen to attract co-funding and other forms of support for the project (limit 2000 characters).
|After the completion of the project, developed study programmes will be constantly monitored and improved through the following: |
|- improving courses with respect to technical innovations in the field of broadcasting& broadband technologies; |
|- introducing new software tools in teaching and learning process; |
|- appropriate maintaining of the equipment and purchase of new equipment; |
|- monitoring needs from industry and adjusting study programmes. |
|After the completion of the project, study programmes of academic and vocational master studies will be financed through scholarship. Best |
|students will be awarded with Government scholarships. Through improving cooperation with enterprises, a substantial number of scholarships |
|will be available for students. Scholarship will be adjusted to supply and demand principles, but will be formed to cover expenses and enable |
|permanent enhancing of study programmes. |
|Main treats to sustainability of project results include lack of financial support after the project completion, low interest of potential |
|students in developed study programmes and low level of implementation of digital broadcasting and broadband technologies (digital television |
|and radio, multimedia technologies, mobile technologies, etc.) in Western Balkan broadcasting enterprises. Opportunities are mostly related to |
|innovation of broadcasting and broadband companies in Western Balkan countries, and planned transfer to digital broadcasting technologies. |

| |- The title and the table of content of books recommended for courses translated |
| |Risks: |
| |- Inability to complete analysis of academic and vocational master study programmes, |
| |- Large differences between analised master study programme in EU and WB countries. |
|Description |The models and structures of academic and vocational master study programs in WB countries will be analysed |
| |against the programmes in EUcountries in this Working package. Analysis will be performed in parallel – the EU |
| |partners will analyse existing study programmes of WB countries in the field of ICT and WB partners will |
| |analyse master study programs from EU countries in the field of DBBT. The master study programs in the WB cover|
| |wider areas of ICT compared to the master study programme in the EU (DBBT) because in WB countries study |
| |programmes are not developed for narrow field of master study programs. After the analyses will be performed |
| |independently, both parties will compare the results of analyses i.e. master study programs in the field of |
| |DBBT in the EU and master study programs in the field of ICT in WB. The similarities and differences between |
| |the structures of master study programs will be defined. Will be analysed which key elements of the master |
| |study programs in the field of DBBT in the EU should be applied in the implementation of the new master study |
| |programme in the field of DBBT in WB countries. Analysis of study programs will be carried out through |
| |workshops in higher institutions of PC and EU. The general overview of existing successful models of education |
| |in the field of DBBT of EU HEIs will represent the basic guidelines for the definition and development of the |
| |new curriculum. |
| |Within this WP the transfer of knowledge and experience in the field of DBBT will be performed by EU to WB |
| |partnets through the study visits and teachers’ trainings. Also, the consultations with the business partners |
| |will be performed about the areas the new curriculum should cover. |

|Title |Project management |
|Related assumptions and risks |Assumptions: |
| |- Proactive approach in project implementation planning |
| |- Defined management structure |
| |- Knowledge and experience in project management |
| |- Risk recognizing and prevention |
| |- Active participation of all consortium members and project staff competence. Risks: |
| |- Low commitment of the partners |
| |- Resistance to change |
|Description |Project management will focuse on how the project is progressing in terms of expenditure, use of resources, |
| |implementation of activities, delivery of results and the management of risks. In order to achieve defined |
| |goals of the project, the project team will systematically collect, analyse and use relevant information about |
| |project progress. Regular reviews will provide an opportunity to reflect on progress, agree on the content of |
| |progress reports and follow-up action required. Intensive communication is the critical factor in efficient and|
| |effective leadership. |
| |Project management structure will be defined and organised on 2 separate levels with intensive and defined |
| |connections and interfaces between these two levels in order to achieve proper project management. |
| |The major decision-making body of the project will be the Steering Committee (SC). Steering committee will |
| |consist of one of most experienced representative of each EU and WB partner institution in management. |
| |The SC and Project Management Committee (PMC) will make organisational and operative decisions. PMC will |
| |coordinate day-to-day management with local managers. In this way it will be possible to achieve appropriate |
| |balance between delegation of responsibilities and maintaining overall control of project staff performance. It|
| |is obvious that management of the project will have matrix organisational structure appropriate for the |
| |effective and efficient management. |
| |PCB will meet four times a year, while SC will meet twice a year. Between "live" meetings, online meetings will|
| |be held whenever necessary. |
| |Special attention in project implementation will be given to risk management. Risks will be identified, |
| |prioritised, managed and controlled in every phase of the project. |
| |This WP also includes reporting and communication with national and international ERASMUS offices. |
| |Work on this organization and coordination of project activities will result in reports. |
|Tasks |- Organisation of Regular Steering Committee meetings. |
| |- Organisation of Regular Project Management Committee meetings. |
| |- Development of guidelines on the project management and reporting. |
| |- Day-to-Day koordination activities. |
| |- Producing the project Interim Report. |
