ECLAT - European Communication and Language Audit Training Scheme

The project aim is to enhance the competitiveness of international SMEs by assisting them to identify language and culture barriers which arise from cross-border trade. The following objectives will be implemented: 1) To pilot a European communication audit and language auditor training scheme (ECLAT) in Latvia and Bulgaria based on models developed in the previous PROTOCOL (UK/99/1/077159/PI/III.1.a/FPC) and DECIDE (F/03/P/F/LA-151203) projects; 2) To fully implement, test and review a common European Language Audit Scheme in Portugal (piloted in PROTOCOL2 - ISL/02/B/F/LA-130122 - but not implemented); 3) To transfer and disseminate the outputs from the EURICA project (UK/04/B/F/LA-162200) and the consequent upgrading of UK’s national Language Audit scheme (ECR) for international SMEs; 4) To develop full sets of Communication auditor training materials based on the work of the Protocol Projects in Latvian, Portuguese, English and Bulgarian. The project adopts a sectoral approach by focusing on the needs of export companies (SMEs) which face language and cultural barriers.
