An important number of results will be generated by the SUCCESS4ALL project. The most significant results are:- An innovative SUCCESS4ALL methodology adapted to the requirements of both the primary and secondary target audiences will be developed. It will heavily draw on entrepreneurship, e-learning and pedagogical best practices as well as focus on inclusive education and the adaptation such an approach requires.
