About the online trainings

• We propose certified online trainings for professionals who would like to complete their expertise on urban digital transformation and how to create an impact in the cities.
• We read and hear a lot about Smart and sustainable cities but still this concept and how it could create value is confusing.
  Based on our experience we have designed multiple courses to help learners to understand 1) the context of an urban environment 2) how to create value in the urban environment. Therefore, we have positioned the online course “Smart and sustainable city environment” as an introduction and mandatory course before doing any other one. To reconstruct the foundations and change some myths about cities, it is important to start with this course before pursuing on any other courses.
