The development of behavioural competences is one of the biggest challenges in current higher education teaching models. In this paper a cooperative model, following NCB-IPMA, is presented, as a result of an interdisciplinary Educational Innovation Project (EIP), directed to boost a methodological change from learning and assessment of behavioural competences in Project Management. This cooperative model is being developed and applied by an interdisciplinary group of professors from the UPM, with four main goals: 1) Start a methodological change in the UPM within ESHE framework and taking International Project Management Association (IPMA)� standards as a starting point; 2) Design, test and set up a new learning and assessment model from IBC, the project based learning approach and focused on students� behavioral competences; 3) Create an interdisciplinary group to collaborate with different UPM colleges and levels �degree and postgraduate courses� opening up new communicative possibilities, educational innovation, cooperation, and making possible the development of UPM students� behavioural competences. 4) To connect training with the certification of professional competences, guaranteeing the training of UPM Graduates in order to obtain the IPMA�s certification in Project Management.
The scope of the model�s application is as follows: three groups of Educational Innovation, 22 degree and postgraduate subjects, 8 teaching groups, 8 UPM colleges, 1215 students and 20 expert professors on project management.
