DIGITABLE's local trainings support social economy in the digital transition

The DIGITABLE project offers subsidised training opportunities to increase the digital skills of WISEs and disability service staff.

In an increasingly digital world, it is essential to strengthen the digital skills of social economy actors, including Work Integration Social Enterprises (WISEs) and service providers supporting people with disabilities. This will ensure their sustainability, impact, and ability to innovate. Organisations supporting people with disabilities, in particular, risk being left behind if digital tools and services are not accessible or effectively used.  

National Training Opportunities 

To respond to this challenge, the DIGITABLE project is organising a series of local training sessions, both online and in-person. The sessions will be held in national languages in Belgium, the Netherlands, Romania, and Spain throughout 2025 and 2026. The training activities will focus on Artificial Intelligence, Digital Literacy and the practical use of digital tools within social economy organisations. 

Financial Support for Participants   

To support participation in these training opportunities, DIGITABLE is offering several grants for staff working within the social economy to attend, including WISEs and service providers with a specific focus on those providing services to people with disabilities. These grants help cover travel and participation costs.
