CVET programme for the next generation of European Local Administrators
Rural local authorities as protagonists of Europe's digital and green transition
Reorganising working models within small European municipalities
The project will promote new skills and competences among the employees of small European municipalities, driving the “smart” transformation of work models, leveraging on the potential of digital, green and transversal skills.
A collection of virtuous tools and approaches aimed at promoting an effective reorganization of working models in “smart” (or agile) mode
We will develop an ad hoc podcast with learning episodes accompanied by in-depth factsheets on topics such as: the relationship between work organization and environmental impact; adoption of more environmentally friendly professional behaviors; tips for safe agile working; reduction of travel costs, i.e. work-life balance and reduction of CO2 emissions; agile working as a lever for digital transformation, the development of knowledge and the elimination of gender differences; people strategy: building trust between workers and management.
Rendere le comunità rurali più attraenti, connesse e sostenibili
Le aree rurali costituiscono l’80% del territorio UE, ma si trovano a fronteggiare sfide cruciali, che ne minano lo sviluppo: divario digitale, scarsa offerta formativa e ipostimolo socio-culturale, esclusione socio-economica, mancanza di trasporti pubblici e “brain drain”, solo per citarne alcune. Le tecnologie digitali risultano fondamentali per rendere le comunità rurali più attraenti, connesse e sostenibili, e per ridurre le problematiche relative alla lontananza migliorando al contempo l’accesso ai servizi pubblici. Il progetto doterà i professionisti della formazione professionale continua (CVET) di strumenti formativi modulari e flessibili per un ripensamento dei modelli organizzativi in ottica di smart working da parte degli enti locali in aree rurali e periferiche europee. L’iniziativa permetterà agli utenti di acquisire competenze chiave per una più efficace implementazione di modelli di lavoro agile, sviluppando competenze digitali, soft, ma anche considerazioni attente all’impatto ambientale del modello di lavoro adottato.
Study visits and workshops in partner countries will promote innovative training tools tailored to learners’ needs.
