The project: Partners Landspitali University Hospital Reykjavik Örebro Universität, Jonkoping University medical center St Radboud, Nijmegen Lund University Hospital Oulu Polytechnic, Oulu Univerity Hospital, Helsinki Mikkelli University Radcliffe infermary, Oxford Silent Partners Heilig Hart Ziekenhuis, Roeselare-Menen (European Associations) EANN EFN (nurses EU) FINE (nurse educators) St. Luke’s hospital, Malta (National Associations) BE: BVNV/ABIN DK: DANN UK: BANN FI: FANN SE: SANN NL: NVNV IS: IANN IT: ANIN SW: SGNP

The project: context • • EU: 15, 500, 000+ patients, 125, 000 -1, 500, 000 nurses Enormous training need Diversity: Different laws & regulations, different educational systems, culture Ranging from good educational systems to no specialized neuroscience nursing education at all Competence based training is a rising star, but nowhere really implemented Working together as solution to EU & time/money problems NW: leaders; S+C: followers; new member states? European ID: Neuroscience nursing = speciality • • • acute neurocare, neuro-rehabilitation, chronic neuro care/neuropalliative care EANN as initiator and guardian of EU-curriculum and materials Strongly connects to EANN policy plan Sharing Reusable Learning Objects: Creative Commons Licence

Competence based learning A competence describes behaviour needed to be successful in a professional context. Levels Criteria, Reflection Competence based learning and teaching philosophy includes: ……… · Learning is aimed at actively constructing knowledge in a meaningful context · A competence is connected to meaningful job/task-specific learning contexts · Integrative learning aimed at coherence rather than loose facts · Active reflection · Working together as on the workfloor where possible · Flexible learning paths · Adjusted to needs and Elsewhere Gained Competences of individual learner · Competences cannot be learned in one click, they grow in a process · Individual learner is responsible for own learning process · Teacher is facilitator or coach for learning process
