DDSKILLS project is a Sector Skills Alliance project (01.01.2020 – 31.12.2022), co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union, which consists of twelve partners from seven different EU countries (Greece, Germany, Belgium, Ireland, Lithuania, Italy, and Cyprus) and is coordinated by "To Ergastiri", a Greek non-profit organisation for the support, counselling, and social integration of adults with learning disabilities. The aim of the project is to design training courses for the development of digital skills of professional caregivers, so that they can make better use of new and emerging technologies and support persons with disabilities in the usage of such technologies for their social integration.

Within the proposed training qualification of the DDSKILLS project, existing courses for digital skills of professional caregivers will be identified and evaluated, skills shortages will be verified and addressed on EU scale, relevant knowledge and learning outcomes will be discussed, and these will be mapped to ECVET (European Credit System for Vocational Education and Training) points and EQF (European Qualifications Framework) Level 5.
