Dear Madam/Sir,
We are contacting you on behalf of PPMI Group, a leading European policy analysis centre. PPMI has been commissioned by the Directorate General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture (DG EAC) to assess the Erasmus+ Teacher Academies (ETAs). This assessment covers early results from the first and second generation of projects (calls 2021 and 2022) and provides recommendations for the future of this initiative. For more details about this assignment, please refer to the DG EAC’s Support Letter attached.
As a dedicated teacher educator within the ETAs community, we are excited to invite you to participate in an online Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with fellow teacher educators. This session aims to invite you to reflect together on the key aspects of the ETAs— what worked well, challenges encountered and areas for improvement; and what lessons and recommendations could be shared for the future of the ETAs initiative. This feedback will help inform the ongoing assessment and ultimately contribute to the DG EAC’s efforts to shape the initiative in the future. Importantly, any findings from the FGD or other consultation methods we employ to gather the feedback from the stakeholders involved in the ETAs initiative will be anonymised and only shared with DG EAC in an aggregated manner.
We propose that this short online meeting could take place on Wednesday, 30th April 2025 between 10:00-11:15 CEST. If you're interested, please fill out the following registration link to indicate your interest by Wednesday, 23rd April 2025. By Thursday, 24th April, we will inform you whether your registration has been confirmed for the event and share the relevant meetings details.
Do not hesitate to contact Mrs Sonata Brokevičiūtė at sonata@ppmi.lt if you have any questions or want to have more information. We’d love to have your voice in the conversation! Kind regards, The PPMI project team
