As per industry experts, Europe has been trailing behind the US and China in terms of digital leadership for a long time now. In order to bridge the gap in digital skills, Growth Tribe, a European training academy is committed to offer hands-on and practical training to professionals and students at a faster time.
Taking its commitment to the next level, the Dutch scaleup has opened three new academies in Sweden, Denmark and Finland recently.
Founded in 2015, Growth Tribe Academy is the first Growing Hacking Academy in Europe. It is backed by Universities of Amsterdam, Facebook, Catawiki, Amsterdam Center for Entrepreneurship and Peak Capital.
Peter van Sabben, CEO of Growth Tribe says, “Just like code has developed ‘continuous deployment’, we have created ‘continuous curriculum deployment. We developed a course that is mix of project-based assignments and skill-oriented content. Three teachers are constantly in the classroom facilitating and educating 25 students. This is how we set the bar for modern education.”
He further adds, “We are ready to start spreading the latest digital skills in Europe. Educating people about digital innovations and AI is crucial if we want to catch up with China and the US.”
