19 October – Webinar: Digital skills development actions and the use of ESF and ERDF funds

19 October, 14:00-15:30 CEST

The Digital Skills and Jobs Coalition brings together governments, companies, social partners, NGOs and education providers to tackle the digital skills gap in Europe. Organisations involved in the Coalition undertake various actions to boost digital skills; and these may be dependent on securing funding from third parties.

The EU provides funding for a broad range of programmes. More than 75% of EU budget is managed jointly with national and regional authorities via the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIFs).

Within this, the European Social Fund (ESF) and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) represent the most significant funding opportunities for actions to be undertaken by the National Coalitions.

This webinar will explore how to obtain funding from ESF or ERDF for digital skills projects. Speakers from several countries will share their experiences in doing so, highlighting the key factors of success and the processes involved.

Join us and get inspired, and learn about how European funds can serve the objectives of Digital Skills and Jobs Coalition.
