2) To develop a curriculum with advanced training courses for the academic career development of PhD students and young faculty members
3) To implement a hybrid learning platform for training courses in higher education
4) To evaluate the impact of the meta-network of PhD programs from the points of view of students, teachers, and universities
5) To disseminate the project experiences and impact a wider national and international audience
5. Anticipated material results
1) The meta-network of PhD Programs in Nursing Science and management and procedural structure
2) A new curriculum to ensure an academic career pathway toward the post-doc level
3) Training courses with new learning material
4) A tested and evaluated hybrid learning platform
5) Increased visibility and communication of the project
6) An interim report and final reports of the project
6. What will be done?
1) Preparation of management structure and procedures for the meta-network
2) Development of the curriculum to support academic career development
3) Implementation of training courses (face-to-face/online) and student/teacher mobility at partner universities
4) Evaluation of the impact of the program, training courses, and student mobility
5) Dissemination of the project experiences and results
