“SELFIE Newsletter” is now Digital Education and Skills
As we anticipated in the latest SELFIE Newsletter, we have adapted our content to include all the activities and tools developed by the Joint Research Centre in the area of digital education and digital skills.

For that reason, we are revamping our channel under the name “Digital Education and Skills newsletter”, including a broader selection of news, events, publications and trainings.

If you want to know more about the different research areas in the field of education and training at the JRC, you can explore our dedicated webpage or contact us at JRC-P21-EDU-SKILLS-EMPL@ec.europa.eu.
