This paper presents some aspects of the need for training and EU best practices and success stories replication to target countries (Morocco and Jordan) in order to establish or upgrade the advanced textile centers. Overall, the proposed teaching and e-learning methods and the aspects of the need for training and EU best practices implementation and success stories replication to target countries (Morocco and Jordan) in order to establish or upgrade the advanced textile centers are essential for higher education organizations involved. In the framework of the FOSTEX Erasmus+ project were identified the best practices across Europe with high potential for being transferrable to the partner countries (Morocco and Jordan) including aspects concerning learning, teaching (courses), dissemination, quality testing, international standardization, equipment, and research projects. We can conclude that the interest of the partners is focused on polymers, protective clothing tests, colour management, product certification, international accreditation, environmental impact (Reach Legislation), colour fastness, washing fastness, and physico-mechanical investigation.

This article analyzes the results of the Saber Pro, the state exam for students completing higher education, during 2007–2017 concerning the English language section. This analysis uses the reports and databases from the Instituto Colombiano para la Evaluación de la Educación (ICFES) repository and explains the policy in its historical context. The results warn of a quite worrying picture between the goals established by the Ministry of Education and the final achievements. The level of English of future Colombian professionals is not only very low but also without improvement from its beginnings in 2007 to 2017. As a conclusion, it would be necessary to review, from the universities’ perspective, the language educational policy and propose bottom-up structural alternatives that allow a sustained impulse in teacher training, methodology, and curricular and pedagogical organization.
