We All Make Digital Information Accessible
Programme: Erasmus+ KA202 VET
Number: 2017-1-ES01-KA202-038673
Digital accessibility in Europe is now in the spotlight after the approval in 2016 of the EU directive 2016/2102. Traditionally, ICT users think that digital accessibility is only a task for ICT professionals when designing and implementing websites and mobile apps. They also think this is something for very specific people, mainly those with disabilities.
WAMDIA changes the mindset of traditional ICT users. The fact is that everybody can contribute to accessibility of digital information by ensuring that common files that one can create are accessible: word processor, presentations or pdf files are good examples. Even more, this aspect of accessibility is key for the daily activity: e.g. the best accessible website is useless if only a single uploaded file is not accessible.
WAMDIA enables general ICT users to make digital information accessible by learning basic techniques which everybody with basic digital skills is able to apply in their daily life. WAMDIA will target many types of general users who are not ICT experts: public employees, teachers, and students in non-ICT programs in VET centres, SME managers and employees and in general any ICT user.

Promoting people with disabilities’ employment by enhancing their digital skills and competences to support a remote working scheme
Programme: Erasmus+ KA220-VET
Number: 2022-1-IT01-KA220-VET-000087590
DIGITABILITY Project’s vision is to promote people with disabilities’ employment by enhancing their digital skills and competences to support a remote working scheme through the development of a more digital resilient educational scheme for both training providers and trainees.

Digital readiness and capacity building of humanities professors in universities through partnership with digital technologies companies
Programme: Erasmus+ KA220-HED

DigitUni project focuses on the capacity development of humanities university professors and assistants to implement online, blended and distance teaching in a Hybrid On-line Environment (HOE) through strengthening and expanding their digital pedagogical skills and competences. DigitUni will therefore support the humanities professors and assistants and their training process in becoming more innovative and digital, as well as more inter-connected with external partners (like IT/digital companies), thus strengthening the links between humanities departments and the research and innovation side of the digital world.
SkillsMatch
Programme: DG-CONNECT’s program “Preparatory Action: Open knowledge technologies: mapping and validating knowledge”
Number: LC – 00822001
The goal of SkillsMatch is to develop assessment and learning technology in order to help users to adapt their skill assets to the demanded labour market skills.
The solution will integrate and improve the development of Non-Cognitive Skills (NC), personality traits or motivations. During the project, partners will create a technological platform for assessing and evaluating such skills, as well as for recommending training opportunities for bridging the gap between their skills profile and the one recommended for their target jobs.
SkillsMatch platform will offer users a self-assessment NC tool showing strong and week points in relation to what is recommended for specific occupations, a personalized training itinerary including Open Education Resources (OER) and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and a portfolio linked to open badges which will provide recognition of the new skills.
