Summary/Abstract: The STE(A)MonEdu Project aims to increase the adoption and impact of STE(A)M education by investing in the community of stakeholders and the professional development of educators. Focusing on the professional development of educators, it aims firstly to compile a competence framework for STE(A)M educators and then design appropriate training offers. In this paper, we first discuss the competency-based perspective, alongside with the related work regarding competence frameworks for STE(A)M education. Subsequently, the proposed methodology for the development of a STE(A)M educator competence framework and profile are described, based on a modified Delphi technique and taking advantage of the European Framework for the Digital Competence of Educators (DigCompEdu).
