Digital Education Action Plan
In the context of the ongoing digital transformation in Europe, the European Commission estimates that 20 million ICT specialists will be needed by 2030. The European Skills Agenda and the Digital Education Action Plan call for urgent action to close this gap.
3 priorities where cooperation is needed (from a dutch position paper):
- safeguarding public, fundamental values in relation to digitalization, and in particular privacy
- promoting alternatives to Big Tech platforms in education to create a level playing field and achieve greater autonomy for educational institutions.
- tackling standardisation at European level to achieve cross-border interoperability between (education) systems
DEVOPS practices
In this context, DevOps, a set of practices that integrates software development and IT operations, has become one of the most in-demand skillsets in the digital economy. Yet, access to this career path is often limited to those with formal technical backgrounds. DevOps Academy bridges this gap, offering hands-on, beginner-friendly learning that integrates technical skills with soft skills, teamwork, and sustainable practices.
