Prof. Corrado Cerruti, in his role as European coordinator of the BUDS project, is glad to announce that the two major project outputs, namely an e-learning course on Digital Transformation Strategy and a guideline on Blended Courses, are now accessible on the project website.

BUDS (Building Up Digital Strategists) is a KA2 Strategic Partnership co-funded by the Erasmus+ of the European Union. Led by Tor Vergata University of Rome, the project involves a transnational partnership with University of Antwerp, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, University of Eastern Finland and Universidade Nova de Lisboa. Associate partners are Assoconsult Confindustria, Antwerp Management School and the YERUN network.

BUDS explored innovative methodologies in education as key elements for connecting higher education institutions and the labour market and, as a result, enhancing graduates' employability in the area of Management Consulting, where the demand for professionals with digital skills is more and more increasing.

During the project lifetime, BUDS partnership has been organizing an Intensive Training Programme on “Management Consulting in the Digital Age”, engaging every year around 40 students from around 10 different YERUN universities.

In line with the Erasmus+ requirements, as a legacy for the future, BUDS partnership is making available the  three modules e-learning course on Digital Transformation Strategy (running on UC3M eXtension platform and accessible from the project website) and the Guidelines on Blended Courses (an interactive pdf downloadable from the project website).
