The Impacts of the Project Increasing the Competencies of Higher Education Teachers 1

Kupec highlights the University of Finance and Administration's (VSFS) European Economic Area (EEA) project. The project focused on increasing the competencies of higher education teachers. The project reflects a high level of higher education in the donor countries. The transformation of this level of education and the related knowledge shared among the participants will mean the fulfillment of the main EEA Program objectives, respectively in increasing the level of human capital and the educational basis in Czechia for VSFS higher education teachers. More competent teachers will therefore contribute to the fulfillment of the secondary objectives of the EEA Program, namely the reduction of economic and social disparities among higher education institutions in the European economic area. Sharing competencies, knowledge and skills of the teachers in higher education among the project participants will also help to improve institutional co-operation.
