Partners gathered in Lisbon to close the project results and discuss the future of retail.
In a crucial step towards enchancing the competences of the European retail sector, the partners of the DIGITAIL project convened for a productive meeting in Lisbon, Portugal, on the 25th of October 2023. The meeting served as a platform for in-depth discussions on the project’s key tasks, deadlines, and recent project developments.
During the meeting, partners engaged in constructive dialogues to refine the project’s results, clarify deadlines, and ensure that all partners were aligned with reaching the common goals identified at the start of the project. Partners shared their findings and insights, providing a well-rounded perspective on the project’s advancements. This open exchange of information not only promoted transparency but also allowed partners to identify areas for improvement and collaboration regarding the project results still to be finalised.
Among the major outcomes of the meeting was the agreement on dissemination efforts until and after the project ends, making sure that DIGITAIL’s results are perceived and used around Europe as effective resources to help drive the digitalisation of the retail sector. With the DIGITAIL project reaching its end early next year, partners will now focus on piloting the results achieved with companies from the retail sector, to collect their feedback and adapt it to specific national realities, and promote the project’s main outcomes to a vast European audience of Vocational Education and Training providers, policymakers and retail sector players.
What has been done so far?
Curious about the results already achieved by our project? If yes, take a look at DIGITAIL’s exploratory research study that identifies in detail the needs and requirements of retail sector companies in terms of competences.
Based on this study, a modular training programme was developed, targetting retail managers and employees in companies. Divided into several small learning units, this training allows you to reflect on the different realities and competences needed in the different European countries that are part of the DIGITAIL project. For a more interactive learning experience, you can access the modules through the following online Moodle platform: https://digitail.moodlecloud.com/login.
