ANMCS(RO) and the Association PARTENER GIDL(RO) are at the origin of this project. Since October 2018, they have been cooperating closely at national level (RO) within the framework of the Human Capital Operational Programme (POCU) 2014-2020.In this cooperation, PALMED (the Patronat of Private Medical Service Providers) and French experts in training engineering and quality management of health services from the Rhône Alpes region have also been involved. After conducting a joint survey with them among Romanian medical companies on their new training needs in quality and risk management in health, they identified the need to create a short cycle of consulting and training activities. The PARTENER Association (RO) then mobilised its European network and noted that this analysis was shared by its partners, particularly in France and Greece. The Erasmus + call for tenders was an opportunity to pursue this work more widely.

​

Taking into account the methodologies (EQF, competence-based approach, Bologna process) selected for the creation of a short cycle, ANMCS and the PARTENER Association have encouraged the constitution of a European consortium of complementarity between the world of work and that of secondary and post-secondary vocational education. For this, they relied on the Université Cote d'Azur UCA(FR) and the University of Western Attica UAO(GR) with whom they have been successfully cooperating for 2 years in European programmes. Together they have finalised the following partnership:

​

• The Romanian National Authority for Quality Management in Health (ANMCS)(P0) which operates under the authority of the Romanian Government is the Applicant organisation and the Leader of the partnership. It will support the partner organisations in the 3 countries with its expertise in project management and management and also in the development and implementation of standardisation and quality control of health services.

• 5 partners from the educational world: The University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Iuliu Haţieganu" Cluj-Napoca(RO)(P7), INMSS (RO)(P8), UCA (FR)(P3),UAO (GR)(P4),EUROERGASIAKI SA Training Centre (GR) (P5).these organisations have been chosen to be able to cover all the levels 4,5,6 of the EQF in order to build secure pathways by positioning the new short cycle. Some of them, like INMSS (RO) and Centre de formation continue EUROERGASIAKI SA (GR) cover all levels. They all master project engineering and methodologies. They all have a long-standing practice of setting up training courses that are now impacted by the management of quality of care and risks in health. They already have a solvent training offer which could be the object of the planned experimentation and valorise the results at the end of the project.

• 3 partners from the world of employment: Hospital Emergency Clinic Cluj (RO)(P9),CHU de Nice(FR)(P3) and the Directorate of Municipal Medicine and Public Health DIMOS ATHINAION Athens (GR)(P6). They will be observation sites and referents for the impact of quality of care and health risk management on medical professions and therefore on the new skills needed to carry them out. Hospitals and medical clinics need qualified personnel to develop the quality of their medical services. Hospitals and medical clinics need qualified staff to develop the quality of their medical services. This requires an exchange of practices at European level to modernise their health services. Their professional experience will be valuable for the drafting of activity and competence references from which the training offer can be reliably built. The medical companies in the networks to which these organisations belong (more than 6,000 companies in 3 countries) will be vectors for disseminating the results. Their presence will be an important asset for the valorisation of the results.

• A partner (As. PARTENER)(RO)(P1) whose only role will be to evaluate the project and its results, whose experience in quality in European programmes (the last one being an Erasmus+ project), its recognised EQF and ECVET expertise in more than 50 education and training projects, will enable it to carry out an objective quality control. This partnership has been strengthened by other associated partners which will be presented in the part reserved for the presentation of associated partners (ministries, medical employers, high health authorities).

 

The multiple fields of competence (employment, education, training, authorities, social partners) will be decompartmentalising elements in the working groups and facilitators of the targeted results. All these partners give the consortium the global expertise necessary for the success of the project.
