The tangible results of the CRISIS project are:

  • Reports: report on required SCROs’ competences based on the needs analysis conducted during the preparation of the project proposal (PR2). The project will also produce reports for the curriculum design (PR2), the instructional planning and development methodology (PR3), the evaluation results of the pilot phase (PR4), as well as dissemination and exploitation plans including roadmaps (PR5).
  • Methodologies: A novel pedagogical approach will be explored determining impactful teaching and learning activities (PR1), while an instructional design methodology for producing learning-outcome based training content that will synthesize a modular high-quality curriculum will be used (PR3).
  • Curriculum: A competence-based curriculum for SCROs will be developed following the needs analysis (PR2). For each competence, learning outcomes (knowledge and skills) will be defined. This approach enables the dynamic composition of the SCRO curriculum to provide a high degree of flexibility and address diverse professional needs and market requirements.
  • Digital content: Digital OERs that support the acquisition of approximately 20 competencies (PR3), such as digital, resilience, management, and smart city competences. ESCO, eCF, and other standards will be considered as a source of competences.
  • Online platform and courses: An online learning platform to mediate the learning process providing flexibility in learning paths and adaptability to different educational strategies will be realized. A course for acquiring the SCRO competences will be piloted to all partner countries (PR4), with the ability to be re-offered after project completion.
  • Tools: A self-assessment tool to identify SCRO competence gaps and learner profiles and a learning journey design tool to determine the educational goals and strategy for each learner defining what to learn, why and how to do it will be designed and developed (PR1).
  • Dissemination materials in English, Greek, Portuguese and German languages, the project website, and scientific publications (PR5).
  • Awareness-raising, promotion, and exploitation events in all participating countries (PR5). The intangible outcomes expected are: A) For the participating organizations (HEIs).
  • Sharing of knowledge, experiences, and ideas that will add value both to the project products and to the improvement of processes at the partners’ organizations.
  • Creation of links and associations with an extended network of smart cities to gain a wider understanding of their actual needs in expertise and training programs and establish cooperations for running training programs.
  • Improvement in the quality of teaching in a digital era through the design of new learning approaches, practices and solutions.
  • Utilization of the new training content, material and platform for the improvement of online training delivery practices B) For learners
  • Broadening of employment and career prospects as SCROs, an emerging job profile that will be part of future cities.
  • Gaining an international perspective of the sector and exchanging experiences with peers.
  • Increased engagement levels through adaptive educational environments that encompass contemporary teaching and learning processes.
  • Keeping up with new and ongoing developments and improving conditions for innovation, growth and creativity C) For other stakeholders (Smart city authorities etc.).
  • European authorities will gain important information for ESCO, eCF, EQF in a dynamically evolving sector, while national authorities will also gain input for the (re)formulation of policies and practices at a national level.
  • Policymakers, employment, and certification organizations will become timely aware of emerging job role profiles.
  • Smart city authorities will have the opportunity to upskill their personnel, improve their impact at local and national levels and establish international partnerships.
