As the RM framework project is entering its final phase, more and more results are becoming available. Therefore, the final online user event aims to present and validate the policy recommendations developed over nearly two years of project work. To ensure that the project produces useful and easily adoptable outputs, perspectives from national and EU policy levels will be gathered and discussed in relation to the proposed recommendations.
Funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme, the RM Framework project brings together partners and stakeholders from ten European countries to develop a common European framework for research management qualifications. The initiative aims to strengthen research management across the European Research Area by supporting standardised yet flexible professional development opportunities and sustainable career pathways. HÉTFA Research Institute is one of the project partners, contributing to the development and implementation of the framework.
The event planned for 25 November will consist of the presentation of the draft recommendations and a panel discussion with the contribution of the following colleagues:
- Jörg Niehoff, Deputy Head of Unit for “ERA, Spreading Excellence and Research Careers”, DG RTD, European Commission,
- Zuzana Weisgärberová, Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic,
- Teodora Konach, Head of Professional Development, EARMA,
- Henning Rickelt, Managing Director, ZWM,
- Virág Zsár, Senior International Advisor, HÉTFA.
The discussion will highlight two complementary benefits: informing policies and programmes that respond to the needs of Europe’s RM community, and strengthening the capacity of professional networks and training providers to meet those needs. Results of the discussion will be incorporated into the final set of recommendations formulated by the project and addressed to European and national policymakers as well as institutional leadership.
The event aims to bring together project partners, European and national policymakers as well as a diverse stakeholder audience. Through these efforts, it will connect project findings with European and national perspectives and support a more coordinated approach to RM training and professionalisation across the ERA.
We welcome you to attend the event and contribute to the discussion.
