The EU-IoT Coordination and Support Action (CSA) is supporting the activities of EU funded R&D projects in Internet of Things (IoT), while also providing resources and services to the wider European IoT ecosystem. These span different areas of IoT development and deployment, including standardisation, reference implementations, open source software implementations, as well as IoT training and skills development.
In skills development, EU-IoT monitors the proclaimed IoT skills gap and develops resources that could help alleviating it. The latter resources include a catalogue of training courses and a series of training webinars on cutting edge IoT technologies. Recent studies have concluded that IoT skills is a catalyst for the accelerated adoption of IoT solutions and for the subsequent growth of the IoT market. This is because the IoT skills shortage is identified as one of the factors that hinder IoT deployments.
