SMARCO
Blueprint for SMARt COmmunities Skills Development in Europe
The project focuses on the main challenge of developing smart communities: the lack of resilience-oriented skills, green skills and cyber security skills of engineers and public administration staff. To close these skills gaps the project will provide training programmes, certifications and a platform to promote good practice. All these measures will help to train and upskill smart city engineers and public administration staff.
Aims
Supporting skills development for resilient smart communities, e.g. by providing training of resilience-oriented skills and knowledge of green digital technologies and cyber security for engineers and public administration staff.
Target group
Engineers and public administration staff
