Research initiative for Enhancing and Adapting Workforce Skills for Implementing Transport Automation with Employment Growth

RESKILLING envisions to implement a strategic approach, which will empower the workforce and businesses of Europe's mobility (of people and goods) sector, to effectively cope with the changes in the sector from CCAM deployment, but also to actively participate in advancing and refining the sector. For this to be achieved, RESKILLING will propose, implement, apply and validate a comprehensive approach, guided by inclusivity, co-creation, and social innovation principles, which will efficiently and sustainably coordinate a range of novel services and tools, fostering optimal adaptation of the mobility sector (covering both people and goods) to the deployment of CCAM solutions and services. This will range from analysing the socio-economic and employment impacts of CCAM across the entire value chain to facilitate businesses and workers in mitigating drawbacks and leveraging opportunities brought about by CCAM deployment. It involves innovating business models and employing mechanisms and training tools for skill enhancement and adaptation, with an emphasis on their replication and transferability potential and customized scalability for adoption throughout the EU. RESKILLING aspires to create a CCAM innovation system capable of not only generating innovation but also delivering solutions to societal challenges.
