University professors with experiences in the different education programs, and pedagogical experts in developing new curriculums will build an expert consortium.
With the completion of the project, the institutions will offer courses consisting of 7.5 or 15.0 ECTS credits in different academic fields such as physical education teachers, healthcare professionals, coaches, etc. The aim is to raise significant awareness in the future professionals in the fields of health, education, and sports on these issues affecting the psychological wellbeing of individuals.
