Episode 2: Digital transformations: Modernising apprenticeships and matching the needs of the digital economy

Episode 2 of “The SKILLS Bridge” Masterclasses will discuss how apprenticeships can bridge the digital gap, through meeting the skills needs of the digital economy and through investigating how apprenticeships can be modernised and transformed by using digital technology. Two of the thematic reports under the Apprenticeships Development for Universal Lifelong Learning and Training (ADULT) project, supported by the Government of Flanders will be presented, and a case study will give concrete insights into new approaches.

• Promoting apprenticeships to meet the skills needs of the digital and knowledge economy
• The digital transformation of apprenticeships: Emerging opportunities and barriers
• Case Studies: Technologies to fill the gap between off the-job and on the-job training
