Data sharing is vital for global competitiveness in digitalized manufacturing, fostering productivity, quality, and innovation along value chains. Successful data cooperation initiatives require informed management and workforce awareness of the economic benefits and incentives of data sharing. Education and training are critical to upskilling and to building this understanding, promoting cross-company and cross-border collaboration while enhancing efficiency and competitiveness.

The project activities are - Detailed analysis of training needs and skills gaps for fostering data and digital service sharing activities in manufacturing companies - Development of training content - Documenting good practices and added values - Release of an online magazine - Implementing training content in e-learning platforms for multipurpose learning (self- and blended-learning) - Provision of awareness raising and multiplier events - Dissemination and project management.

Our project will produce six main results (R): - R1: Need Analysis Report on training needs and skills gaps in manufacturing companies - R2: VET Training Course with 5 interactive modules - R3: Guidebook to Good Practices and Added Values - R4: Data Cooperation Insight Magazine, a dynamic and multimedia resource - R5: Roll-out Report - R6: Awareness-raising activities and leveraging events for demystification of the roles and contributions of various actors in the manufacturing industries.
