Further to call for proposals launched each year since 2008 by the European Commission, CSCS has always been appointed as a Leader Organisation of the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs Programme.
The programme allows cross-boder exchanges offering new or aspiring entrepreneurs the chance to learn from experienced entrepreneurs running SMEs in other Participating Countries. The exchange of experience takes place during a stay with the experienced entrepreneur, which helps the new entrepreneur acquire the skills needed to run a small firm. The stay is partially funded by the European Commission and CSCS manages all practical aspects: assessment of profiles, finding a match, preparing an activity plan and a project offering benefits to both parties, implementing the exchange, paying the young entrepreneurs, monitoring and evaluating the relationship.
