Bridging the Skills Gap in Generative AI through the Generative AI Skills Academy

Bridging the Skills Gap in Generative AI

GenAISA is a visionary Erasmus+ project dedicated to developing advanced training programs on generative AI technologies. By focusing on innovative resources, tailored curricula, and ethical AI practices, the project empowers learners, educators, and businesses across Europe to build essential skills and thrive in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.

The project aims to design, develop, and test two specialized curricula—one for Higher Education (HE) and another for Vocational Education and Training (VET).

Duration: 2024-2027

Higher Education Curriculum

Equips learners with the knowledge and skills to design and develop generative AI solutions.

Vocational Education and Training Curriculum

Focuses on the efficient, safe, and ethical use of generative AI tools.

Workplace Resilience Course

Strengthens learners’ adaptability and problem-solving skills in professional settings.

Key Project Outputs

Generative AI Competence Map & Job Profiles

Defining the skills required for roles such as “Generative AI Engineer” and “Prompt Engineer” in alignment with ESCO standards.

HE & VET Curricula with Learning Resources

Emphasizing microlearning and challenge-based learning methodologies.

Digital Skills Passport

Validates both generative AI and resilience skills, supporting career development.

MOOC Platform

Facilitates the delivery of HE and VET courses.

Virtual World for Resilience Training

Provides an immersive learning experience for workplace adaptability skills.

GenAISA

Target Audience

This project directly benefits:

  • Students & Learners in HE and VET programs
  • Education & Training Providers in HE and VET institutions
  • Enterprises seeking AI-skilled professionals
  • Policy Makers shaping AI education and workforce development strategies

Innovative Learning Approaches

MOOC-Based Learning: The two curricula will be delivered and tested through a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC).

Virtual World Training: The resilience skills course will be tested in an interactive virtual environment.

Pilot Implementation & Certification

The curricula will be tested with at least 200 learners across Greece, Bulgaria, Spain, Finland, and Lithuania. Upon successful course completion, learners will receive micro-credentials to certify their newly acquired skills.

Building an AI Talent Ecosystem

By fostering collaboration among educators, enterprises, and policymakers, this project will establish an innovative learning ecosystem to support talent development in disruptive deep-tech fields, such as generative AI.

Partners: A Network of Excellence
