Strategy and blueprint for Smart Communities Skills Development in Europe
SMARCO’s Smart Communities Skills Partnership will be the first community, bringing together industry (especially SMEs), public administrations and academia with a joint interest in training and upskilling.
SMARCO will serve as an all-encompassing umbrella for smart communities skills on both sides – industry and public administrations – offering evidence-based research, trends analysis, short courses, forward-looking training programmes, certification systems, and other relevant resources, within a strong stakeholder community.
