DIGI-Step Project Partners Meeting in Lodz, Poland

On January 19, 2023, the quarterly consortium meeting of the Digital Sustainable Skills and Training in Education Partnership (DIGI–Step) project was held in a hybrid form in Lodz, Poland, hosted by the University of Lodz's Faculty of Management.

All partners provided an update on the project tasks and solicited feedback from other partners on the content of the various intellectual outputs and work packages. Similarly, the partners intensively discussed identifying gaps, challenges, and further course module improvements in order to minimize duplication and make the modules' content self-learnable and impactful to prospective students, considering that the course will be available on an e-learning platform. They also discussed the preliminary content development of the digital course implementation handbook, which was presented by a WUT partner, and received significant improvement suggestions from the other partners. More importantly, the ISQe team provided timelines and recommendations for the course module's digitization.

Other important activities that need to be implemented were also discussed during the meeting; a scientific paper publication and conference presentation about the project will be initiated in order to make the course more visible to a wider audience. Speaking at the meeting, the chair of sustainability management and environmental accounting at TUD, Prof. Dr. Remmer Sassen, suggested a couple of potential conference and paper publication options.

Finally, the meeting was wrapped up with a new commitment to making the project more significant and laying the groundwork for the next meeting in Dresden.
