    A continuously growing attention is being paid to innovative ways of Lifelong Learning based on a Human-Centric approach and facing several challenges.
    Lifelong Learning, based on innovative training and teaching tools, is becoming a strategic instrument for implementing innovation into SMEs.
    MILLE Project will highly contribute to this scenario, in the Area of Raw Materials, Sustainability, Design for Circularity, Traceability methodologies, by developing multi-disciplinary micro-credential programs, associated to Digital certifications.

  • Topics

    The most relevant topics on which Lifelong Learning will be designed have been identified as:

    • Life Cycle Assessment (Interpret, critically evaluate and use the results of a LCA analyses)
    • Eco-sustainable Design (Defend and formulate ways to improve the circularity of a products from a systemic life cycle perspective, including materials selection in a CRM scenario)
    • Circular Economy (Understand its principle strategies and how they apply to individual products)
    • Energy and Resources (including CRM) Management
    • Sustainable Mobility (based on lightweight design and on more circular components, easy to repair, or to be remanufactured, or to be dismantled and recycled)
    • Digital Product Passport and blockchain technology (with specific reference to sustainable components and manufacturing processes)
