Project description
Training for competitive European manufacturing
The increased globalisation in manufacturing, new technologies, automation and AI has transformed the demands of the labour markets. With expected automation in physical work estimated at 33 %, 22 % in data collection and 11 % in data processing, Europe must urgently confront present difficulties to address its future skills needs to ensure competitiveness. The EU-funded FIT4FoF project aims to help the European workforce obtain skills to fit the Factories of the Future. It will analyse present workers’ needs and technological trends in six industrial areas, like robotics, additive manufacturing, and data analytics, to inform and promote new education and training requirements across European regions.
