The role of Abstract Technology in this project

As a leading European expert in online learning and a verified Open edX® platform provider, we joined this project to support the development and launch of soft skills training videos.

​

These learning materials are designed to prepare a specific target audience for digitalization in the vocational education and training (VET) sector. In addition, we worked on the creation of schools and administrative guidelines to further aid the digital transformation. Drawing on our extensive experience in digital learning for both educational institutions and corporate training, we contributed to the project by assisting the consortium in the conception, creation, and deployment of the training videos and supporting materials.
