Added value

The project will provide Klaipėdos valstybinė kolegija/Higher Education Institution with the opportunity to develop innovative teaching methods, particularly in the areas of virtual reality and e-learning, and will strengthen the quality of study content in the fields of healthcare and nursing. At the national level, it will contribute to strengthening the competencies of wound care specialists and create accessible, standardized training resources and digital tools. In the context of the European Union, the project will promote cross-sectoral cooperation between higher education, vocational training, healthcare institutions, and NGOs, thus ensuring the dissemination of knowledge and the widespread adoption of innovations.
