RESINT contributed to the reform and implementing of curricula in resilience management with the collaboration of not academic partners through the elaboration and offer in an open source platform, of a model that comprehensively reflects best practices from business companies, NGOs and government in managing operational resilience across the disciplines of business continuity management, security management, post catastrophe practices and IT operations management. The collaborative approach between academic and not academic organizations overcame the existing inadequacy of university courses, curricula and syllabuses that do not meet the needs of the world of labour from one side and the lack of professional skills and attitudes from the other. The main results of RESINT are: Structured Educational Programmes (BSc, MSc, PhD) with syllabuses and courses; Pilot modules framed in Short Courses on Resilience Management; Tools based on Augmented reality and Intelligent Computer Learning Systems (its integration) implemented; Innovative didactical methodology (Simulimpresa) applied; Training courses with internship and stage in external organizations; Dissemination; Career and placement service implemented; Agreements between Universities and Enterprises.
All these results are made available by an open source WEB Site managed by the Project Network and freely disseminating Project Results. Based upon the issues and resources identified in the study previous to this project proposal, RESINT consortium may wish to consider the following areas of potential future work: Address the platform issue; Build Continuing Education to support the online learning; Developing further projects in this field particularly as it concerns collaborative educational network governance.
