The “E-TRAINERS: new skills and tools for vet” project is co-funded by the EU Erasmus+ program and its main objective is to bridge the digital divide between young people and teachers.

The E-TRAINERS platform is ready and available in 9 European languages. It is an online training course on three methods that help teachers and operators who, in various fields, work with young people to better prepare them and to develop their educational activities using digital technologies.
