EUROPEAN PROGRAMMES
FOR EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP EDUCATION & FORMATION

This is one of EFES' main new priorities for year 2003. This new web page is now open to discuss and to develop this programme.

A full one-week seminar was held on the topic from September 7 to 14, 2003, in Bilbao again : here the report of the seminar (1 page).

A first discussion on the project was held in Bilbao on November 23, 2002 through a dedicated workshop: click here for the report (PDF).

Clich here for a first draft presentation of the project (Powerpoint).
This will be a one-year project, with a first starting seminar gathering some 40 experts in Brussels on May 16, 2003, and a concluding seminar gathering some 40 experts in Autumn 2003.
In the first stage, this project will help to collect and to describe existing education and training programmes in various countries. Secondly, the project will have to define common European programmes contents.
Thirdly, we shall go to a set of specifications for certifying education and training programmes which will be developped within the various countries.

Comments, suggestions or proposals: which existing programmes are available in your own countries? Which experts could take part? Etc... Please send your message to marc.mathieu@pi.be

YOUR COMMENTS:

From Ryszard Stocki (Poland) 18.12.2002:
I am very happy such a big priority was given the educational effort. I am in the process of convincing my Institute to run specialized curriculum devoted to open book management and ownership culture. In 2004 I would like to start studies for graduates, a kind of MBA for employee owned companies. Dan Bell agreed to start a working group working on the structure of curriculum of such studies. Please tell anyone interested about it.

From David Wheatcroft 31.12.2002:
I would like to join the group on EO Training. I have been interested in educating the workers in Employee Ownership and have wrote 2 booklets targeted at workers as well as sets of Newsletters on the basics. I believe it is important that we not only educate key people but we also give the masses the basic information so that they will become more involved in the workings of EO. After all it is they who will make the whole thing work with greater commitment and not just with monetary reward.
