Course dedicated to schools in Piedmont and Lombardy. Fourth edition
Cloud computing and artificial intelligence are two fundamental pillars of today's technological innovation: their intertwining is transforming the way we live and work, bringing significant benefits and opening up new opportunities.
Within Opening Future, a joint project of Intesa Sanpaolo, Google Cloud and TIM Enterprise, the Fondazione Mondo Digitale ETS, together with its partners, is offering the fourth edition of an innovative training course for the 2024-2025 school year that combines transversal skills with more technical skills, through meetings with business experts, orientation sessions and creative challenges to discover cloud computing and its relationship with artificial intelligence.
OBJECTIVES
- Help young people develop digital and transversal skills
- Guide students towards STEAM study and career opportunities through the testimony of experts in the field
- Accompany students in a self-reflection on their strengths and skills
- Encourage young people to try their hand at creative challenges to put into practice what they have learned during their training.
