In a context of internationalization of companies and teams, in a context where needs to adapt and know how change (with the coronavirus crisis), the local and global challenges of entrepreneurship can find solution thanks to intercultural skills as a possible source to answers the problems. Indeed, the basic principles for developing intercultural skills are: openness to otherness (curiosity, empathy), self-knowledge (and evaluation of one's own models), negotiation between one's own beliefs and those of others (without wanting to identify with the Other), interaction and analysis competence (to act together with a view to common objectives) They use four categories of resources: * interpersonal skills, such as the ability to center yourself, to review your distrust of others * knowledge on the functioning of social groups, on their values * a "knowing how to understand" aiming to correctly interpret foreign sources * a knowledge to learn new knowledge and to know how to mobilize them in real time in a communication situation. If intercultural issues are not taken into account, they can lead to failure of any cooperation, through misunderstandings and misinterpretations of different behaviors. Taking them into account means increasing your chances of becoming an innovative entrepreneur at local or international level.Through our "ILE" project we want to show that intercultural skills are "bridging" with the skills necessary to develop a sustainable entrepreneurial activity, which knows how to adapt and cope with change. Our project is the establishment of a training course on intercultural learning and the development of key skills for a group of trainers (4 countries, 2 representatives for each of the 4 modules) working in the field of vocational training for adults. The first aim of our training course is to provide "learning trainers" with tools to understand the challenges of intercultural learning, by truly experiencing cultural diversity. The second is to understand the mindset that an entrepreneur must develop in the face of change. To achieve our goals, we have defined 4 strategic modules to carry out an intercultural apprenticeship training for an entrepreneur. Participants will need to acquire and understand the basic skills of intercultural learning listed above. But also: reflect and acquire the meaning of intercultural processes in problem solving. • share skills and experiences on the use and place of interculturalism in the work of adult education. • learn and understand the concepts of learning methods used in educational activities. • be able to develop and experiment with new methods to improve daily work and more specifically in connection with interculturality. • be capable of creativity to bring out and animate activities. To acquire and develop these objectives we set up 4 stages, in the form of modules: - module for definitions of key words, creation of a semantic field in languages, linked to intercultural learning and the concepts to which they refer (Culture, identity, language, stereotype, prejudice, discrimination) -Module on "resistances" and obstacles to intercultural learning. -module on incentives and methods promoting intercultural learning. - "tool emergence" module and creation of new projects on intercultural training.
