We’re delighted to announce the successful applicants for the 2025 Online Training Programme “Driving Digital Transformation in Cultural Heritage Institutions”, organized by EUreka3D‑XR Project in collaboration with the International Council on Archives (ICA) and Photoconsortium.
After a competitive selection process, 30 learners have been selected to join the full programme and will engage in three sessions, designed to deepen their knowledge of digital strategies and practices in the heritage sector. Each session will comprise an open keynote speech, livestreamed for all public, and an interactive working session for the selected cohort: attendants of the three interactive sessions will receive a certificate of participation.
We extend our sincere thanks to the over 160 CH professionals and students who applied— your enthusiasm and commitment to advancing digital transformation in cultural heritage are highly valued. Unfortunately, due to the limited number of places (30 selected learners), we were unable to accommodate all applicants this time. In any case, the keynote lessons of each session will be available open to all, via streaming on the ICA YouTube channel and will be recorded for rewatching and reuse. Whether you applied and were not selected, or you are simply interested in following the presentations and dialogues, you are warmly invited to tune in and engage.
