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 anticipated 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.

Co-Funded by the European Commission under the Horizon Europe programme (GA No. 101147328) and the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI), RESKILLING brings together 20 leading partners from the fields of CCAM, education & training, skills development, and (social) innovation. The project is coordinated by CERTH/HIT and will run for the next three years. RESKILLING is part of the portfolio of projects of the CCAM – European Partnership on Connected, Cooperative and Automated Mobility.

Within RESKILLING, the International Road Federation (IRF) leverages its extensive global network of experts and organisations to support key Dissemination, Communication, and Exploitation activities. A central aspect of IRF’s involvement is leading RESKILLING’s Advisory Board, which plays a crucial role in guiding the project, gathering strategic insights, and enhancing its visibility. By drawing on its diverse international expertise and cross-sectoral connections, IRF ensures that RESKILLING benefits from a broad and informed perspective, facilitating knowledge exchange and fostering collaboration across mobility stakeholders.
