Introducing and implementing the EUCIP Core training programme can only be efficient and successful if young professionals completing the training have a chance to be employed not only in Europe but also in Hungary. In the framework of the I-TShape project, the Pest County Foundation for Enterprise Promotion (PFEP) undertook to survey Hungarian stakeholders of the economy to assess the infrastructural background of various businesses, the status of this infrastructure, the conditions of its operation and the expectations towards professionals who operate and develop it. The results and conclusions of the survey are important for us, as we can use them in designing a training programme tailored to the needs of the Hungarian market demands that and then integrating it into the vocational training system in Hungary.

Digital transformation in China is customer-driven instead of enterprise-driven. The Internet adoption ratio in SMEs that contribute 70 percent of China’s GDP is way much lower than that in developed countries. The paper aimed to identify the critical success factors for SME’s digital transformation and then provide a sufficient transformation framework through analyzing a small chemical company in China. Three issues are defined as the main boundaries in digital transformation in China’s SMEs: the lack of awareness and strategic vision of Digital, the lack of sufficient change management, and the lack of experts. The seven main activities of MICEP methodology can be applied in Chinese SMEs. But the emphasis may different between one and another.
The Current IT Labor Ecosystem | WhitepaperACTIVE Network
In the long history of labor forces, there perhaps has never been a more in-demand and competitive candidate pool than today’s technology workers. While this candidate-driven market is driving technology innovation, it is also placing added pressure on IT hiring managers to not only stay consistently engaged in the hiring process, but also to continue to offer increasingly lucrative compensation packages, engaging projects and a compelling corporate culture in order to remain competitive in the current IT hiring ecosystem.
The potential of e-Commerce and e-Trade is no longer a matter of debate. Despite the initial hype and subsequent dot-com crash, it has moved into the realm of a noteworthy reality. Since e-Commerce already affects the economic relations between and within countries and since it will continue to do so more and more, e-Commerce has to be considered as a matter of key policy consideration. As such, developing countries must not only appreciate and address its potential for industrial and trade growth, but also consider it as a means of survival in this new world of Internet-based business and trade.
Computacenter commissioned independent research to understand how businesses are responding to workplace change and where their challenges reside. The emphasis
of the research was to compare perspectives from the next generation of end users and those of IT professionals devising workplace strategy for organisations today. The findings in the report provide interesting results that should help inform next steps for businesses in enabling a contemporary workplace.

Industry 4.0 is the name of the next industrial revolution which is fueled by the advancement of digital technologies. It
is dramatically changing how companies engage in business activities. As a result, the disruptive nature of Industry 4.0
demands a reassessment of the requirements for IT. On the one hand, there is the possibility that the responsibilities of Chief Information Officers (CIOs) could be taken over by other executives such as the Chief Digital Officer (CDO) or the Chief Technology Officer (CTO). On the other hand, this
recent development creates entirely new perspectives for positioning themselves and their IT departments
within the business.
The impact of digital technologies is reaching a magnitude at which IT is considered a substantial
business driver, potentially placing CIOs in the driver’s seat.

In order the EUCIP Core to be successful, it is important to get feedback from those students who were the first participants of EUCIP Core education and exams. Materials to help the preparation for the exam were given to the participants. Moreover, trainings in various periods were held. The students prepare for the exam partly in these trainings, partly by themselves. The examination was held with the involvement of students who had taken part in the pilot training and had taken at least one exam (in one module). An online questionnaire with 21 questions was made. The access to this questionnaire was given to the students. Most of the questions were multiple-choice but open questions were also asked.
The third IT-Shape meeting, attended by representatives of the 10 project partners, took place on 24th and 25th October 2014 at the Irish Computer Society in Dublin. The Dublin meeting followed the Italian meeting which took place in April in Pontedera. The meetings occur regularly to evaluate, discuss and set new activities to be carried out by the project group.
The IT Administrator is an independent IT qualifications within the EUCIP system, which write the necessary competences for the „administrator” position. The 3.0 version of the IT Administrator (EUCIP) defines a narrower set of competences, which allows to possess a basic exam, and obtaining a EUCIP IT Administrator Fundamentals (ITAF) certificate. To obtain this ITAF certificate the candidates have to proof their knowledge in four areas (Hardware, Operating systems, Networks and IT security).
The aim of the meeting was to evaluate and discuss the activities carried out so far and to examine the activities to perform before the next meeting, which will take place in Ireland at the end of October. The second IT-Shape meeting, attended by representatives of the 10 project partners, took place on 1st, 2nd and 3rd April 2014 at ITCG E. Fermi in Pontedera. The Pontedera meeting followed the kick-off meeting that took place in November in Budapest (Hungary). Between the two meetings, six months of hard work on the project.
AICA promotes the IT professionalism by means of its annual Congress, its journal “Mondo digitale”, researches, projects and courses. It participates to the CEN IT Skills Workshop which has developed the European e-Competence Framework.
AICA is responsible in Italy for the following competence frameworks and certification systems: e-Citizens, ECDL, EUCIP. "AICA – Associazione italiana per l’Informatica e il Calcolo Automatico – is an Italian Association, member of CEPIS the Council of European Professional Informatics Societies.
T-shaped experts, T-shaped education in Hungary
IT-Shape project aims to adapt EUCIP Core certificate in the Hungarian Vocational Education. The main impact of the project are the increased chances of Hungarian (young and adult) people getting their placement at enterprises, by offering them internationally recognized, true pan-European IT qualification."
Nagy az érdeklődés a EUCIP Core vizsgára
A visszajelzések szerint a résztvevők körében, nagy volt az érdeklődés, a válaszadók több mint, 96%-a érdeklődik a jövőbeli EUCIP rendszer iránt Magyarországon. Kérdezték, hogy mikor lehetne a programot megkezdeni, mikor lesznek a vizsgák elérhetők a diákjaik számára.
Az IT Administrator a EUCIP rendszeren belül önálló informatikai képesítés, amely a „rendszergazda” munkakör betöltéséhez szükséges kompetenciákat írja le. Az EUCIP IT Administrator 3.0-ás verziója a meghatároz egy szűkebb kompetencia készletet, és lehetővé teszi, hogy annak birtokában rendszergazda alapvizsgát tegyen, és a EUCIP IT Administrator Fundamentals (ITAF) bizonyítványt megszerezze. Az első kísérlet: EUCIP IT Administrator Fundamentals Magyarországon
A bizonyítvány megszerzéséhez négy területen (PC hardver, Operációs rendszerek, Hálózatok és IT Biztonság) kell megfelelő tudásszintet igazolni.
A harmadik I-T Shape találkozó házigazdája az Ír Számítástechnikai Társaság volt, 2014. október 23-24-én Dublinban. A találkozó célja az volt, hogy a EUCIP képzések sikeres hazai bevezetését előkészítsük, a magyar partnerek megismerjék a képzésekkel kapcsolatos európai szintű eredményeket, és a magyar iskolák választ kapjanak a magyarországi bevezetéssel kapcsolatban felvetett kérdéseikre.
Jim Friars (az Ír Számítástechnikai Társaság vezérigazgatója és az ECDL Alapítvány elnöke) hivatalosan üdvözölte Hartyányi Máriát (iTStudy Hungary Kft.) és a magyar és az olasz delegációt Írországban. Jim Friars kifejezte örömét aziránt, hogy a EUCIP tanúsítvány a magyar diákok számára is elérhető lesz, és egyben azt a reményét, hogy mindez pozitívan fog hozzájárulni az magyar szakképzés és a szakoktatás eredményességéhez az informatikai szektorban.
Igény van a EUCIP Core végzettségű szakemberekre.
Az EUCIP Core képzési program bevezetése és honosítása csak akkor lehet hasznos és eredményes, ha képzésből kikerülő fiatal szakemberek foglalkoztatására igény mutatkozik nemcsak az európai, hanem a hazai munkaerő-piacon is. Az I-TShape projekt keretében a Pest Megyei Vállalkozásfejlesztési Alapítvány (PMVA) vállalta, hogy felmérést végez a magyar gazdaság szereplői körében azzal a céllal, hogy képet kapjunk a különböző gazdálkodó szervezetek informatikai infrastrukturális ellátottságáról, annak jelenlegi állapotáról, a működtetési feltételekről és az alkalmazott infokommunikációs eszközök és technológiák működtetéséhez, fejlesztéséhez szükséges szakemberekkel szembeni elvárásokról. A felmérés eredményei és tapasztalatai azért fontosak számunkra, mert így a hazai piaci igényekhez igazodó képzési program alakítható ki és vezethető be a magyar szakképzésbe.
Új ismeretek sikeresebb vizsgát eredményeztek.
A EUCIP Core program zárásaként a pilot képzésben résztvevő diákok vizsgát tettek a CORE minősítést tartalmazó három modulból, Tervezés/Plan (56 vizsgázó), Fejlesztés/Build (55 vizsgázó), Üzemeltetés/Operate (85 vizsgázó).
A legeredményesebb vizsgák olyan tartalomból, a Plain modulból sikerültek, melyek tananyaga alig szerepel a szakmai képzési tartalomban (kerettanterv), ezért az új ismereteket a diákok sokkal szívesebben tanulták.
A Build modul közepes teljesítménye jelzi, hogy a fejlesztői, programozói ismereteket jobban, hatékonyabban kell tanítani, továbbá a felkészítés során, a vizsgán számonkért speciális ismeretek oktatására nagyobb hangsúlyt kell fektetni.
Az Operate modul gyenge eredménye meglepetést okozott, hiszen a szakmai tananyag tartalomban ez igen kiemelten és nagy óraszámban szerepel.
A EUCIP Core minősítést az informatikai képzéseket folytató iskoláknak javasoljuk, mert az arra való felkészítés jó hatékonysággal megvalósítható. A motivált diákok bizonyították, hogy az informatikai képzésben már a 9-12. év végére, sokkal felkészültebben és eredményesebben az OKJ vizsga időszakában jó eredményeket képesek elérni mind magyar nyelvű, mind az angol nyelvű vizsgákon.
It was time for the EUCIP CORE exams. In Hungary multiple answer tests are hardly ever used in really important exams. Therefore, our students were happy to take this type of exam since the correct answer was provided too and it was easier for them to spot.
"Az EUCIP Core képzési program kellően korszerű, és bevezetése az informatikai szakmákban
támogatandó."

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Results and Conclusions of the Survey Related to the EUCIP Core
Training among Economic Stakeholders
Introducing and implementing the EUCIP Core training programme can only be efficient and successful if
young professionals completing the training have a chance to be employed not only in Europe but also in
Hungary. In the framework of the I-TShape project, the Pest County Foundation for Enterprise Promotion
(PFEP) undertook to survey Hungarian stakeholders of the economy to assess the infrastructural
background of various businesses, the status of this infrastructure, the conditions of its operation and the
expectations towards professionals who operate and develop it. The results and conclusions of the survey
are important for us, as we can use them in designing a training programme tailored to the needs of the
Hungarian market demands that and then integrating it into the vocational training system in Hungary.
The survey used a questionnaire with 15 questions. Respondents could fill in the survey online, on a
voluntarily basis and anonymously. The survey was sent out to the regular contacts of the PFEP,
corresponding to more than 600 organisations. Less than 10% of them (56 respondents) filled in the
questionnaire yet we think we could collect useful information and opinions that can be relied on when
designing the training programme.
Questions in the first part of the questionnaire, questions were supposed to facilitate the interpretation
and evaluation of those related to professional issues. Questions were related to the legal form of the
organisation, number of staff, economic sector and scope of the activities as well as the position, age and
gender of the responding person as these latter factors may bias the attitude of respondents. One third of
the participants were women and two thirds men. This ratio is considered ”favourable” regarding today’s
„masculine” trends in the composition of top management, in the IT sector in particular. More than 70% of
respondents held positions in the top management (chief executives, business managers, marketing
directors, IT directors, managing directors, heads of sales, heads of financing, etc.). From the respondents,
52% were older than 50, 45% fell into the age group of 30-50 and only 5% were younger than 30.
The distribution of responding organisations regarding business sectors approached the typical sectorial
distribution of companies in Hungary (see the graph below).

The distribution according to number of staff of Hungarian businesses is also well represented by
respondents. More than 95% of the participants belonged to the group of micro enterprises and SMEs and
less than 5% were big companies.

Assessing the IT infrastructure of organisations, the activities where such tools and structures were used
and the method of use were considered important. As illustrated by Fig. 3, more than 70% of the
respondents applied PCs and had internet connection; more than 60% used networks of peripherals.
However, less than 50% of the participants used PCs in a connected setup (network), while only 10% of the
respondents had intranet and operated web servers.

We also wanted to collect information on the current status of existing IT tools and equipment. Our
impressions here are actually quite positive; more than 70% of the organisations modernised their

According to our results, the existing IT infrastructure is typically used for administration (82%). About 50%
of the respondents used software packages for finances, accounting and payroll calculations, customer and

used yet in high level company processes such as designing and controlling production and manufacturing,
human resource management, project management, logistics, PR, marketing and quality assurance. In
these fields, the rate of IT users was below 20%. The use of integrated company management systems was
reported in less than 10% of the cases.
Fig. 4. Fields of IT use.
Regarding the importance of IT tools and technology in operating and developing organisations, 63%
considered it very important or essential, 34% said IT applications facilitate daily work and only 3% thought
IT use had only minimum effect on their work.
We also asked the participants about the actual solutions regarding system administration and other IT
tasks, i.e. whether they employ professionals for the purpose or hire subcontractors and what
qualifications they set as criteria for performing such tasks.
One fifth of the respondents employ full time IT experts and about 30% hire subcontractors to perform IT
tasks with long term contract or on a case by case basis.

As Fig. 6 shows, system administration and other IT tasks are performed by people with specialised college
degrees at about 60% of the respondents. In about 30% of the cases, the experts performing these tasks
have special secondary qualifications. At one fifth of the organisations, the employed IT experts do not
have relevant degrees.

qualification.
According to the results of the survey, participants employ IT experts to facilitate the operation of users’
PCs and mailing systems and to manage web pages. Subcontractors are typically hired to develop software
tools or web pages or to provide web server or storage services. Network servers and systems are operated
by employees and subcontractors in about 50-50%, respectively; the same applies to regular hardware and
software maintenance, backup tasks and IT development.

Our most important question regarding the EUCIP Core training programme was related to the importance
participants gave to the knowledge, abilities, skills and competences listed by us in relation to IT experts.
According to the results, 80% of respondents think it to be essential for IT experts to be familiar with
modern IT tools, technologies and should be able to install, use, operate and maintain these. Being aware
of the relevant legal and ethical aspects is considered almost as important. The rate of those who expect IT
experts to make recommendations IT developments to support particular operation processes is lower
(67%). Competences beyond the strictly professional ones with special regard to English as a language for
special purposes as well as independence and problem solving are considered important or essential by
80%.

The questionnaire also included a part where participants could make comments or recommendations
regarding the training programme. From these comments, the following were considered particularly
useful:
The training should focus on practical solutions and include personal motivation exercises.

Typically, IT experts can either assist in developing own software solutions or in the application of
generally available software packages. Experts who have the field specific knowledge and are able
to provide advice in finding customised alternatives of commercially available packages are missing.
The training should be held in English.
The training programme should be designed in a way that it can be later incorporated into higher
education, as part of the curriculum for college degrees or second degrees.
We may summarise the results and experiences of the survey as follows (conclusions are obviously not
inclusive):
1. Most organisations use software packages for administration, document and data management,
maintaining registries, finances, accounting and payroll calculations, customer and client registry.
Hence, IT developments are implemented in these fields. It is rarely assessed, however, if these
developments optimise internal business or operation processes.
2. The most important aspect of IT development is usually modernising existing tools and systems,
thus developments are scheduled according to the amortisation of these.
3. The rate of respondents considering ICT essential hardly reached two thirds. A potential reason for
this is that participants are not fully aware of the potentials ICT offers for their organisations.
4. Most organisations rely on the IT services of people with college or university degrees. However,
the rate of employees with such qualifications is only about 20% while employees with secondary
qualifications make up for about 30%.
5. Organisations show a demand for customised consultations by well prepared IT experts to receive
practical help for IT applications and developments facilitating efficient operation.
Our conclusions and recommendations based on the summary are as follows.
1. As only few with a special intermediate degree are employed by organisations, an EUCIP Core
training with contents somewhat different compared to previous trainings should be introduced
into intermediate vocational education specialised at ITC. As a result, graduates could replace
experts with higher education degrees in certain fields while the training could also serve as a
suitable base for professional development.
2. When designing the EUCIP Core training programme, having courses or exams in English should
also be considered.
3. The training programme should particularly emphasis practical solutions and the development of
extra competences such as independence, problem solving or team working.
4. When designing the EUCIP Core training programme, its potential incorporation into tertiary
vocational training in the future.

2inno.eu – „Do innovation now!”
LLP Project
The project aims at managing directors and senior employees of SMEs and supports them in recognizing
the need for innovation management and innovation processes introduce even the smallest companies,
and to make practical usable.18 experienced partners from Europe, including 6"core partners”, will
introduce the results of the project in six EU countries(AT,ES,HU,IE,IT,SI).
But why is it – especially for small businesses – so difficult to put "innovation" into practice?
The way we suggest in the 2inno.eu project is the DUI-mode: "learning by doing, using and interacting
mode". Small businesses should learn very practical, in just a few weeks, how they can start concrete
innovation projects and further implement them successfully. In customized workshops on "Innovation
Management" we want to help them to close the gap between theory and practice, so they can find their
own "culture of innovation". All according the motto „DO innovation now!“
