The selection of SMEs will be done based on identified criteria whereas services will be delivered in line with the specific common format with the packages. The team will use the IMP³rove tool as an assessment tool. The KAM will undertake needs analysis/coachcom tool to support SMEs in selection of lead coach. The planned duration of both work packages is 24 months (2017-2018). The services, benefits and experiences from these activities will be part of internal evaluation. The beneficiaries of these activities will be also used for identification of potential needs for training in the future.
