The United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and SmarterChains have recently announced a partnership to provide training and capacity-building for manufacturing companies. This new initiative is designed to help individuals, businesses, service and technology providers, and governments keep up with the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0).
The online learning platform, which will launch on September 29th, will provide courses related to Industry 4.0. It will provide guidance on how to best leverage technological advances to drive sustainable growth and stay ahead of the competition.
UNITAR has been providing capacity-building and training to professionals since 1963, and its programming now reaches 300,000 individuals annually. Its courses now cover multilateralism, economic development and social inclusion, environmental sustainability and green development, sustainable peace, and research and technology applications.
SmarterChains is a SaaS platform designed to help manufacturing companies prepare and execute learning. Its mission is to create an agile and integrated manufacturing ecosystem where expertise is democratized and knowledge is shared among partners. It is constantly developing its platform to help manufacturers strategically move towards Industry 4.0.
On September 29th, UNITAR will host a webinar to discuss the importance of Industry 4.0 for the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This will also serve as the platform’s official launch.
Teachers and educators are now facing increasing pressure to keep up with the technological advances brought by the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This partnership between UNITAR and SmarterChains provides a valuable opportunity to help educators stay on top of the latest developments in the field. It is a great way to ensure that teachers have the knowledge and skills they need to effectively prepare their students for the future.
