Several challenges hinder SMEs from effectively participating in and succeding at calls for tender. We believe that by training experts in European procurement processes, we can enhance SME participation in public tenders, particularly in the communication sector.
To that end, IHECS Academy is launching a co-funded and EU-recognized training program through the Erasmus+ Jean Monnet program, in partnership with VO Europe.
This specialized course combines theoretical classes with hands-on workshops and case studies to master the tender application process.
