Cisco has launched an initiative to offer free digital skills courses to 1.5 million people in the European Union by 2030. Led by CEO Chuck Robbins, this plan involves training 5,000 instructors in key areas such as AI, cybersecurity, and data science. The courses will be delivered through Cisco's Networking Academy, which has a long history of providing digital education. This initiative aligns with the European Commission's goal to enhance digital literacy and create a skilled workforce for a digital future.
Cisco is committed to supporting the EU and our education partners in developing the talent essential for thriving in an AI-driven future. This new initiative strengthens our partnership to build a resilient and skilled workforce ready to meet Europe's digital transformation and AI objectives.
The Cisco courses will cover digital awareness, cybersecurity, data science, IoT, and AI, ensuring citizens gain foundational skills for the digital economy.
The program aligns with the European Commission's 2030 Digital Decade targets, which aim to boost digital literacy across the region.
The academy has operated for more than 27 years and partners with over 3,000 institutions and more than 7,000 educators across the EU.
