Victoria Chepurna Participates in the Training “Cooperation Between Universities and Schools in EU Erasmus+ International Projects to Improve Teacher Training: eTwinning and CBHE”

On 21–22 November 2025, Victoria Chepurna, Associate Professor at the Department of Innovative Pedagogy, Educational Transformations and Leadership of the Education and Research Institute Teachers Academy, took part in the training “Cooperation Between Universities and Schools in EU Erasmus+ International Projects to Improve Teacher Training: eTwinning and CBHE.”

The event was organized by the National Erasmus+ Office in Ukraine and the National Support Organisation eTwinning – NSO Ukraine, and was hosted by Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University.

Over the two days, participants shared their achievements and drew inspiration from the successes of their colleagues in this field.

The organizers proposed the following topics for analysis and discussion:

• “Skills for Life” / Developing Critical Thinking in Student Teachers;

• eTwinning projects in schools: evaluation criteria and tools for improving teaching and learning;

• “Skills for Life” / Documentary Film as a Tool for Developing Key Competencies and Shaping a Socially Active Personality in Times of Challenges;

• eTwinning as a Tool for Enhancing the Institutional Capacity of Universities;

• Development of the national network of Ukrainian universities participating in the eTwinning / Erasmus+ Programme (Action Plan for 2026–2027).

The meeting resulted in new ideas and joint initiatives, including opportunities for integrating eTwinning into CBHE / Erasmus+ projects, as well as into future work with students through their active involvement in international educational initiatives.
