This is an overview of the results achieved by the project:
• A community involving main energy transition actors, a space where target actors exchange resources and share the competencies required to support the energy transition. Additionally a Public Outreach Strategy was defined and implemented including tailored messages and activities to address each specific group of energy transition stakeholders. Four communication and dissemination campaigns to raise awareness about the project results and the energy transition have been set out.
• The project conducted a research on the social aspects of the energy transition, this research followed two directions: (1) Societal challenges in the energy sector, and (2) Knowledge-Skills-Competences required for energy transition and the skills gaps in the current labour market. Aiming at promoting the interdisciplinarity in research, innovation and education services, SSH components as well as learning components and outcomes associated to ethics, economics, research and innovation among other competences have been incorporated to ASSET´s educational offer. Besides a train the trainers workshop was organized to foster the incorporation SSH learning topics in "technical" courses.
• A conceptual framework and tools, based in the learning graph model, to facilitate and speed both the creation of new educational programmes and the replication/adaptation of the existing educational offer, by allowing the re-use of existing materials in different educational institutions and their application to different disciplines.
• Mechanisms to strengthen the collaboration among academia and industry. Best practices for mobility support mechanisms industry-academia have been identified and recommendations for their implementation made. The ASSET marketplace tool has been developed to facilitate the search of energy transition educational programmes for industry and to provide an instrument to directly request new educational programmes to the university.
• More than 40 educational programmes on energy transition related topics have been developed exploiting the ASSET learning graph concept and delivered via multiple delivery modes: open online, face-to-face, blended etc. The project educational offer comprises: 21 MOOCs , 2 of them specifically designed for citizens, 24 class-based and blended educational programmes, 5 interdisciplinary courses incorporating SSH disciplines and 2 industry on-demand courses. ASSET educational programmes are available in the EMMA and EIRIE-PANTERA platforms and will remain available for years after the end of the project.
