The RUN European Programmes Academy (RUN-EPA) has officially launched its first RUN-EPA Catalogue of Learning Opportunities, marking a significant milestone in the RUN-EU 2.0 project.

RUN-EPA provides students with innovative and flexible learning experiences aimed at equipping them with future skills. The first catalogue highlights the learning opportunities implemented during the year 2024.  

RUN-EPA focuses on the development and delivery of joint education offers created by transnational curriculum teams. These programmes are designed to offer immersive learning experiences, integrating cutting-edge knowledge and skills in emerging areas identified through the RUN European Research Area, RUN-EPA Exploratory Missions and in collaboration with other key internal and external stakeholders. The skill set required for 2030 and beyond will be at the core of the work of RUN-EPA and the programmes developed include short learning opportunities which involve blended, online and in-person learning offers including Short Advanced Programmes (SAPs) as unique education opportunities provided by RUN-EU, COILS, MOOCs, BIPs, Youth Exchange Schools (YES) as well as joint degree programmes and ultimately European Degrees focused on future skills requirements. 

This first edition of the catalogue is intended for internal communication, and a version of the catalogue will be produced each year to inform partners of our progress in achieving our target of 140 joint learning opportunities during the RUN-EU 2.0 project. The catalogue is available on the RUN-EU website to promote our learning offer.

The catalogue was developed by the EDUHUB and is part of the work of the RUN-EPA, with the Polytechnic University of Cávado and Ave (Portugal) as the Strand leader and the Häme University of Applied Sciences (Finland) as the Work Package leader.
