Smart.AInnovators: Using artificial intelligence for professional development and raising civic awareness
One of the LINKgroup’s institutions,
ITHS participates in another project that aims to improve digital literacy and skills.
Over the past decade, the intensified digitalization has transformed many aspects of our work and everyday life. The fourth industrial revolution has radically transformed society, as well as the labor market. Employers are faced with difficulties in finding qualified employees in many sectors, especially in the digital sector.
Strengthening digital skills has a positive impact on industrial and technological development, and it helps build a more just, cohesive and inclusive society. Digital skills empower people of all ages to navigate the digital environment, while increasing their capacity to participate in democratic life. People with developed digital skills will be key to Europe’s economic recovery in the coming period, especially after the serious impacts of the pandemic affecting all areas of life.
