Simplon.co is an international network of socially inclusive tech boot camps. The organisation firmly believes that digital transformation is a powerful vehicle for social innovation and that it can enable those who struggle to access training and/or the job market to become the talent of tomorrow by finding a job or becoming an entrepreneur. They offer free, intensive courses in digital skills that are currently in high demand such as web development, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity, looking to include those jobseekers who are underrepresented in the digital world. People from vulnerable backgrounds receive trainings with an active pedagogy and with project-based learning elements allowing them to make the jump from training to the job market as small as possible. Simplon.co works with partners across Europe and beyond, forming a strong network that together has trained more than 25,000 people since 2013.

 

Tech Time 2 Skill

Tech Time 2 Skill (TT2S) is one of Simplon.co’s recent projects that aims at encouraging the acquisition of AI and cybersecurity skills. The 3-year project, co-financed by the Directorate General CONNECT at the European Commission, involves a consortium of three European partners with Simplon.co in the lead. Through capacity-building exercises, acculturation workshops and specialisation workshops, the project supports the development of advanced digital skills that reflect the latest developments such as AI, cloud computing and microelectronics. The focus hereby is on SMEs.

The objectives of TT2S are the delivery of 54 workshops for 148 SME leaders, 36 capacity-building workshops for 432 high-skilled workers and 9 intensive training boot camps for 135 job seekers. Currently, the project is active in Spain, France and Belgium and is available in French, Spanish and English.
