▶Objectives
SMARTER develops smart supply chain knowledge competences as well as transversal skills through experiential learning applications. 7 universities from Spain, Austria, Ireland, Finland, Croatia, Romania and Argentina as well as 2 business development organisations (IRE, ESP) deliver digital learning material, innovation created in industry-university collaboration, as well as formative assessment tools for sustainable learning methods realising the 'Internationalisation at home' principle.
▶Activities
University students will conduct a digital maturity gap analysis within the target businesses to create the framework for the core learning activity - the SMARTER Student Challenge, organised in Ireland in April 2024. Work packages 4-6 will prepare the Smart Material, Money, and Info flow to support the student challenge by using simulations, serious gaming, webinars and online workshops. The in-person workshop will be realised as a collaborative industry-university knowledge creation event.
▶Impact
The final conference in Croatia in June 2025 will present the research publication of the digital maturity gap analysis, smart supply chain learning material, the experiential learning tools, the best practices learned from the student challenge, and feedback and reflection documents from student, educators and target group representatives as well as formal curricula integration opportunities. SMARTER achievements are also published in Social Media throughout the progress of the SMARTER project.
