EU4Digital Academy courses offer both theoretical and practical knowledge. After graduation, you will have the skills to initiate sales in the European Union (EU) through marketplaces or use digital marketing to boost your sales.

The EU4Digital Academy also issues an EU-aligned digital certificate that you can easily share and display as proof of your knowledge.

The specifics of the platform focus on:

• The digital skills you need, from A to Z, on one learning platform
• Training courses available in various Eastern Partnership languages
• Adapted to the markets of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine

The courses are launched on April 9 and will be available in all languages of the Eastern Partnership countries. The three courses currently available are an e-commerce course on EU markets, a Digital marketing course, and a Business digitization course.

Through the EU4Digital initiative, the EU aims to lay the groundwork for the digital empowerment of one million Eastern Partnership (EaP) citizens by providing digital learning opportunities. Bridging the digital divide through a digital skills framework for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and increasing the quality of digital transformation monitoring are priority areas under digital skills.
