Activities
From research to real classrooms
SereniSleep moves in a deliberate arc: first we listened, then we built, and now we share. Each activity feeds the next, so that everything you find on the platform is grounded in evidence and tested with real educators and learners.
Project management & coordination
The engine room. Three partners across three countries, kept in step through a shared workplan, online coordination meetings, quality and risk monitoring, and transparent financial and reporting management — including close cooperation with the Bulgarian National Agency (HRDC).
- Kick-off and regular online coordination meetings
- Shared templates, certificates and a live project dashboard
- Quality assurance, monitoring and risk management throughout
Coordination is rarely the part anyone reads about, but it is what keeps three partners in three countries delivering the same project on time.
State of the Art — national realities
Before writing a single lesson, we mapped the reality on the ground in each partner country. Between January and May 2026, the partnership ran three parallel research strands and consolidated them into a full evidence base that shaped every module.
- A2.1 Desk research — adult-education, mental-health and sleep policy landscapes, vulnerable-group profiles and systemic gaps in Bulgaria, Spain and Serbia.
- A2.2 Surveys — 133 respondents (40 educators, 93 learners) across four countries on sleep behaviour, learning impact and readiness for change.
- A2.3 Focus groups — in-depth sessions in each country exploring lived experience, institutional barriers and platform-design needs.
The verdict was unanimous: strong appetite for sleep education, and almost nothing available to meet it.
Online Training Platform & capacity building
The heart of the project. The research became a 10-module, self-paced online course for adult educators, hosted on Tutor LMS at curso.abarka.org and localised into four languages. A3 also delivered the in-person capacity-building training (LTTA) in Varna, Bulgaria, where partners co-developed and tested the content that now lives on the platform.
- A structured 10-module curriculum — ≈2–3 hours on the learner track, ≈15–20 hours CPD on the certified educator track
- Practice clinics, experiential activities and a downloadable manual
- A partner-signed SereniSleep Educator Certificate
- Blended learning: online modules reinforced by the Varna LTTA
The outcome is the Online Training Platform itself: ten modules in four languages, with a learner track and a certified educator track, free to anyone who wants them.
Dissemination & sustainability
Great resources are worthless if no one finds them. The partnership shares SereniSleep through a scientific-article series, social-media campaigns, posters in adult-education and health centres, and shareable micro-content — and secures its future by publishing everything openly on EPALE and the Erasmus+ Project Results Platform and embedding it in partner networks across the Basque Country, Bulgaria and Serbia.
- SereniSleep scientific article series and LinkedIn campaign
- Multiplier outreach through partner and stakeholder networks
- Open licensing so any organisation can reuse and adapt the materials
Dissemination is not an afterthought here — everything the partnership produced stays openly available to the wider adult-education community beyond the funding period.
