Project-based learning differs from traditional forms of knowledge transfer in that students learn directly in particular applied project settings. Projects thus cease to be mere practice sessions and instead turn into live venues for learning where the education partner supports project teams and actively coaches them.

Project-based learning is organised into “learning boxes” where each learning box assigns a clear role to the participants:
– The project partners provide the challenge and physical resources and manage the project.
– The students contribute their talent, creativity and work.
– The coaches guide the students through the content and develop the skills in the teams.
– The education partners include the concept in their programmes and assess students’ academic achievements.

– Project partners benefit from the creativity and expertise of various universities and disciplines. The standardised framework is easy to use, quality-assured and accessible to everyone.
– Students not only acquire future-oriented skills and competencies by working on real problems for industry partners but also earn ECTS credits.
– Experts can serve as learning coaches on as many projects as they like and thus gain access to exciting ventures and industry partners. And they are paid for their work.
– Educational institutions further develop their programmes by providing the projects and facilities that learners need in order to develop key competencies.
