This event should have taken place physically in Klagenfurt, but due to COVID-19 restrictions and the lockdown gatherings were not allowed. So it was held online via the Cisco Webex platform.<\/p>\n<p>The main purpose of the meeting was to assess the status of work at project level by reviewing the status of deliverables, milestones and tasks of each work package of the extension period. Special attention was given to the collection of indicators for the upcoming final technical and financial report along with the external financial audit. Furthermore, the coordinator introduced the COVID costs spreadsheet and regulations. 26 project partners attended the meeting.<\/p>\n<h2>November 2019<\/h2>\n<h3>Project Meeting in Osijek (CRO)<\/h3>\n<p>On November 4th and 5th, 2019, the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Information Technology of the Josip Juraj Strossamyer University of Osijek hosted the annual physical project meeting of the Erasmus+ Project BENEFIT. During this meeting the different work package leaders and members gave insights into their completed, current and future tasks in order to update the whole consortium about the overall progress of the project. The last session of the second day included the intervention of the EACEA project officer via teleconference, who provided precious feedback and advice.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-751\" src=\"https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-300x161.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-300x161.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-1024x549.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-768x412.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-103x55.jpg 103w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-1536x823.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-2048x1098.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-1600x858.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-800x429.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Meeting-in-Osijek-4-5-11.-2019_thumb-580x311.jpg 580w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>The local newspaper &#8220;Glas Slavonije&#8221; reported on the training event, for more details click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.project-benefit.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Glas-Slavonije_-Friday-December-13-2019.png\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>February 2019<\/h2>\n<h3 data-font-name=\"g_d3_f1\" data-angle=\"0\" data-canvas-width=\"47.082\">ICT4 Industry trade fair<\/h3>\n<div data-font-name=\"g_d3_f2\" data-angle=\"0\" data-canvas-width=\"4.636799999999999\">In the days February 12 &#8211; 14, project BENEFIT has been presented on exhibition booth of Department of ICT at University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Electrical Engineering.

BENEFIT is a three-year long project coordinated by the Alpen-Adria-Universit\u00e4t Klagenfurt (professor Tonello) that will focus on three main pillars:<span id=\"more-195618\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1.) the cooperation between Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and industry to modernize the study program in telecommunication engineering;<\/p>\n<p>2.) the adoption of modern teaching methodologies and tools, the upgrade of the infrastructure, and the creation of several joint university-industry labs;<\/p>\n<p>3.) the training of both teachers and students.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, to increase level of cooperation, visibility and sustainable opportunities, the project will develop an integrated e-platform for class material for e-learning, available training\/internships opportunities in the region, list of universities and companies from the consortium, employment opportunities, and events of technical content with society-at-large as target.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, BENEFIT will contribute to shape a modern profile for the graduates in the telecom\/ICT engineering domain, bridging effectively the gap with the job market needs, which is a concrete action in response to the recently announced programmatic goals by WB countries.<\/p>\n<p>The modernization of the Telecommunications study program into an ICT Engineering program fosters transversal skills, breaks the barriers that traditionally exist in the computer and the electrical engineering curricula and promotes the concrete application of ICT HW and SW skills in horizontal domains: smart systems, IoT, energy, e-health, transportation. The cooperation with industry promotes professional development of both teachers and staff involved in training with ICT methodologies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November 2020 Online project meeting via Webex On November 26, 2020, the University of Klagenfurt hosted an intermediate online project meeting of the duration of half a day.
