Workstream 2: recommendations

Following the analysis of these results, the expert group made three recommendations:

  1. Member states should determine and agree on quality criteria for the education of technology transfer professionals to be able to promote recognition and accreditation of technology transfer education programs;
  2. Any such comprehensive education programs should be modular-based and must provide and/or improve the core-skills identified; and
  3. The European Commission should facilitate and support setting up European-wide or trans-national training systems and assist those Member States which lack the necessary infrastructure or national demand.
