New Mobility Academy: Practice-oriented qualification initiative

Challenge

The ongoing electrification and digitalization of vehicles and mobility in general are fundamentally changing the automotive industry. This is why we are offering small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) an important opportunity for qualification with the New Mobility Academy on behalf of e-mobil BW. This applies not only to the large vehicle manufacturers, but especially to SMEs and smaller suppliers who have to assert themselves on the market.

Method

With the qualification in different sub-areas of "New Mobility" the Fraunhofer IAO has launched a new, practice-oriented further education for small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) within the framework of the SME mobility offensive of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Employment and Housing Baden-Württemberg. The New Mobility Academy has a modular structure, each course can be flexibly booked as an independent unit. The basic modules of the seminar series teach the basics of vehicle electrification and digitization. In addition to conveying subject-specific knowledge, the in-depth modules serve to identify innovation and business potential for your own company.

Result

The seminar series will be offered at regular intervals until December 2021. Leading research institutions and companies from Baden-Württemberg are involved in the design and implementation of the educational program. The high quality and practical orientation of the content is ensured by speakers from both science and industry.
