Project description

The EXCEED – Excellence in Green and Digital Manufacturing- project aims at preparing the Advanced Manufacturing (AM) sector to face the disruptive changes generated by the twin transitions. EXCEED assumes the synergic and mutual benefitting application of digital and green as powerful leverages to accelerate innovation in AM. These changes require the availability of new competencies for the present and future workforce, as well as an overall increase of responsiveness of the education systems. To provide concrete answers, EXCEED will develop a joint international lifelong learning offer for workers in need of upskilling and reskilling, and a set of new curricula for Higher Vocational Education and Training students.

Main objectives

  1. To equip current and future workers in the AM sector with the needed competencies to master the disruptive changes generated by the green and digital transitions
  2. To boost the adoption of systematic approaches to skills intelligence to timely detect the evolution of the skills demand on the globalised labour market, while increasing the responsiveness of the Vocational education systems.
  3. To boost innovation and attractiveness of Vocational Education, through the joint design and testing of new, flexible training programmes and the delivery of skills certification processes by releasing microcredentials, while collaborating to make VET training programmes more inclusive for all.
