Kompetenzdefinition und curriculumsentwicklung durch anwendung von EU-instrumenten

The current European situation in the field of training and further education in Technical Communication provides the background for the Erasmus-Plus project TecCOMFrame described in this contribution. The project aims at developing an academic competence framework, prototype curricula for bachelor’s and master’s programs as well as specialization streams based on that framework, and an international website for the profession intended for project dissemination. In this contribution, it will be shown by means of the Deming cycle comprising the phases „Plan – Do – Check – Act“, how the project execution, delivery of results and quality assurance are based on existing EU instruments. It is also exemplary illustrated how by doing so strategic goals of the EU in the area of education are addressed and implemented. Moreover, in view of the transferability and reusability of the method, the project results are intended to be used in a sustainable way for similar assignments.PUBLISHEDpeer-reviewe
