THE EO4GEO PROJECT

 

EO4GEO is an Erasmus+ Sector Skills Alliance gathering 26 partners from 13 EU countries, most of which are part of the Copernicus Academy Network. Be they from academia, public or private sector, they are all active in education and training fields of the space /geospatial sectors.

Technological progress and globalisation offer tremendous opportunities for innovation, job creation and growth. This also requires people to acquire new skills in order to drive and support change. But which skills are they, and how can we build and shape the workforce of the future? This is where EO4GEO steps in.

EO4GEO aims to bridge the skills gap between supply and demand of education and training in the space / geospatial sectors, fostering the uptake and integration of space / geospatial data and services in broad range of application domains. The project works in multi and interdisciplinary way and apply innovative solutions for its education and training actions: case-based and collaborative scenarios; learning-while-doing in al living lab environment; on-the-job training and co-creation of knowledge, skills and competences.

The project started on January 2st, 2018; it will run for 4 years, closely collaborating with DG GROW and DG EMPLOYMENT to reach its strategic objective.
