Editor's Notes
- A joint effort by Greek, industry, educational and training institutions, startups and HR agencies, aiming to motivate young people to improve their e-skills and employability, increase their entrepreneurial skills and learn about new technologies. The project is led by HePIS, Microsoft Hellas and Peoplecert; financed by the global Microsoft Youthspark program and carried out via the cooperation of: The American College of Greece (Deree College), the ALBA Graduate Business School and 13 more stakeholders and sponsors. The motto of Getbusy.gr is “ unleash your potential ” and achieves that by giving free access to informational and educational material which largely meets the priorities set by the EU on digital skills. It also contributes simultaneously to the digital divide and the opportunity divide . During it’s first phase (November 2012 – April 2013), getbusy addressed most of the policy themes of the Grand Coalition for Digital Jobs launched by the European Commission.
