The identified current knowledge level is the average of the participating EU countries, which means that some countries are above and some are below the average. In addition to MOOCs and learning content from other specialised projects, the ALLVIEW project is a major contributor to the learning content of CE, I4.0 and AAL, which is also translated into several languages (Slovenian, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, German, Polish and French) and is available on this online training platform. If you are willing to reskill or upskill yourself about CE, I 4.0, AAL or CSR, do not miss this opportunity!
