The FutureForward kick-off meeting took place in Fano, Italy, on January 19-20, 2025.

The main goal of the project is to support adult educators and learners (Target groups) to achieve basic digital skills to properly access and use AI tools in daily life and work.
In order to do that, the project wants to achieve the following specific objectives:

  • To improve knowledge, skills and competences of adult educators in order to deliver effective and engaging basic training for adult learners, focused on AI tools.
  • To improve knowledge, skills and competences of adult learners in order to enhance accessibility and safe use of AI-based services.

The project is coordinated by Learnable from Italy. Four other organizations are also involved: Universitat de Valencia from Spain, Budakov Films from Bulgaria, Odpovědná společnost, z. s. (ReS) from Czechia and BERLINK ETN GMBH from Germany.

During the meeting, the partners had the opportunity to present their organisations and define the work plan for the coming months.

The topics discussed were as follows:

  • Project Overview and Results, with a focus on the main results of the second work package, including:
    • the production of the Trainer Platform, providing educators with an online environment, equipped with supporting materials and tools, necessary to implement, support, manage and assess effective training for adult learners on how to use AI tools in daily life and work.
    • the organisation of the Transnational Course for adult educators to develop competencies for the implementation of basic training paths on AI for adult learners also using resources and materials included in the FutureForward Trainer Platform.
  • Project Dissemination and Expected Outcomes
  • Administrative and supporting documents that are required for successful project management and reporting
  • Quality Assurance

The partnership will now be involved in validating the structure of the Trainer Platform, to start content production and layout work to have a draft version of the output ready by April 2025
