10. Name of institute Name of author/s www.smeactor.eu Evaluations and lessons learnt B.I.C. János Sztankó Evaluation: -The interest from the different parties, SMEs and other organizations was promising and it seems, that a good common work can be done. The SMEs are mainly focusing on the practical profitability of their participation, getting some first hand information and some knowledge they can use in their work. On the other hand the organization representatives are more interested in the didactics and tools used that they can implement in their work. Lessons learnt: - Participation should be checked one – two days before the meeting by calls. -Time keeping is difficult, so tools (eg. sand-clock) should be introduced and/or agreements should be made in advance. -It would be useful to project the description of tools and case studies are always make the workshop more interesting.
