SGroup is committed to share some of the findings of EU projects that focus on Doctoral Education.

Here are a few examples that the TTIDE considers to be relevant for that purpose:

1. The DocTalent4EU project researched and outlined the key transferable skills that bridge the gap between academia and other professional paths and identified the most relevant skills that PhD students who do not wish to follow an academic career need to acquire. Within the framework of this project, financed by the Erasmus+ Programme, a Summer School on “Enhancing Communication and Negotiation Skills for PhD Candidates” was organized. Hosted by the University of Limerick between the 28^th and the 30^th May 2024.

2. The DocEnhance project aimed to enhance transferable skills intelligence and integration into existing PhD programmes by developing an employment and innovation-oriented curriculum for PhD programmes, facilitating business-education partnerships, and tracking PhD graduate career paths.
The major outputs of the project are a recommended transferable skills curriculum for PhD programmes, a new course concept and material, and an open-access career-tracking survey.
These outputs are available as Open Educational Resources through an online platform: https://docenhance.eu/the-platform/

3. The PhD HUB (this platform was developed as part of the European PhD Hub, an Erasmus+ project coordinated by the European University Foundation, that ran between 2017 and 2020, funded through the Knowledge Alliances action.
