EPR Innovation Prize

 

Celebrating mutual learning and continuous improvement

 

 

 

The difficulty lies not in new ideas, but in escaping from the old ones.

 

 

The Innovation Prize concept was developed by the EPR to encourage the circulation of information on innovation and best practice, and rewards the best practice inserted in the Knowledge Management Centre on the criteria of innovation and added-value to the rehabilitation sector.

Congratulations to "The Irene Project" introduced by Pluryn!

How to participate?

 

The contest is open to all professionals working in an EPR member organisation. Applicants can submit a practice from their organisation that they feel to be particularly innovative and useful for the service users. The best practice can be of any type (a service, a programme, a methodology, a tool, etc...) and related to all areas of service provided by EPR members.

One application can be submitted on behalf of an individual or a team. Organisations are of course welcome to submit more than one best practice!

 

To submit a best practice, professionals need to fill in the standard KMC template and to insert their application in the KMC. All the templates inserted between between 1 February 2010 and 31 March 2010 will be eligible to win the Innovation Prize.
