Poster for the webinar

This online webinar on good practices at the regional level to address upskilling for place-based innovation is being held in the context of the 1 year mark of the Interreg Europe SKYLA - Smart Specialization Skills Ecosystems for the Twin Transition - project. SKYLA’s overall objective is to support public authorities in putting future skills at the centre of the twin transitions for a smarter, more resilient development, by boosting and adapting the role of VET in innovation ecosystems and smart specialization strategies. The webinar will be an opportunity to learn from the good practices in VET and skills strategies to address the twin transition and future skill needs in a smart specialisation context, including the Talent4S3 Interreg Europe project (kicked off in 2024).

The webinar is organised by EARLALL, the European Association of Regional and Local Authorities for Lifelong Learning. EARLALL is an associate partner in SKYLA
