Overall, it was a very successful start for the project with an intensive exchange of information, ideas and common workplan with clear expectations and deadlines among all partners.
With the results from the project, the Cluster promotes the increase of digital competences and skills of trainees as well as employees in the retail sector. To this end, 40 to 60 retail-specific e-learning units are being developed that correspond to the current level and future needs of the activity profile in the two main occupations of salesperson and retail clerk. The e-learning units are to be used in a variety of ways in the sense of flexible application possibilities both in the national and in the European educational landscape of retail.
