Information on the BELVEDERE project
The BELVEDERE project is an EU-supported Erasmus+ project with the objective of equipping professionals who support disadvantaged young people and adults in vocational training, qualification and placement processes with the necessary ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) competencies. BELVEDERE aims to strengthen the digital competence of these professionals and to provide them with relevant (pedagogical, methodological and organisational) strategies. For this purpose, an overall programme was developed in the course of the project, which consists of various offers that are structured in a curriculum, or can also partly be obtained independently of each other. In addition to this MOOC, there is a collection of digital applications whose use in the professional field is evaluated and discussed by the project experts, the BELVEDERE toolbox. A dedicated platform is also offered, in which the curriculum and developed materials are made available in ready-to-use form. This platform can be freely used for own seminar and course purposes and includes elements for online use, as well as face-to-face work. The project website summarises all offers clearly and provides even more information. And best of all: all offers are free of charge, freely available and can be used more than once.

AP13, HAA, atempo, ENABLE Scotland and Aura Fundacio belong to this group. In total, about 250 of their staff belong to the direct target group of BELVEDERE. Some of them have already many years of experience in using ICT in their processes and training their staff in using the ICT appropriately, while others are relatively new to the topic. With this arrangement, the project aims at covering the whole spectrum of digital maturity in comparable organisations. The consortium’s expertise is complemented by TU GRAZ as an expert in the development of online media and by ITA as an expert in digital transformation processes.
