Strategy and blueprint for Smart Communities Skills Development in Europe
SMARCO’s Smart Communities Skills Partnership will be the first community, which will bring together industry (especially, the 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, training programmes, certification, and other resources, and the overall stakeholder community.
