Impact

According to CEDEFOP (2021) Strengthening digital competences is a priority area for both EU Member States and candidate countries. While there are many activities focusing on initial vocational education and training (IVET) learners, more extensive progress needs to be made in continuing VET, addressing the digital skill gap of adult citizens. By promoting knowledge sharing, DIGI:GO will foster the adoption of new methodologies and innovative approaches that can have a long-term impact both on organizational terms, as well as in community and local terms.
