continuous development of digital competence as a key driver for the innovation and
competitiveness of the Basque country.
To implement this project, the main milestones have been mapping experiences with the evaluation
and certification of Digital competence in Spain ad Europe; developing a self-assessment test (SAT)
of digital competence for citizens and a Guide for intermediaries; defining four Professional Digital
Profiles; organising thematic workshops with stakeholders from across Basque society; and
disseminating the project at national and European level.
The Professional Profiles defined are: Administrative Technician; Machine Operator; Commercial;
Entrepreneur.
The Industry 4.0 profiles are: Mechatronics Technician; Maintenance Technician; CNC Technician;
Additive Manufacturing Designer; Additive Manufacturing Machine Operator; Digital
Transformation in PMEs Technician.
Online Resources: The SAT is available in Basqu, Spanish and English; the Professional Digital Profiles
are available just in Spanish; the Guide for professional digital profiling is an aid to conducting the
interview with experts in some occupation; other documents are in the Ikanos Personal Learning
Environment.

DigitACT Project

DigitACT project is comprised of a team of professionals with over 50 years of collective experiences
in fields such as Education, Information and Communication Technologies, Entrepreneurship, Social
Innovation, and Youth Development and Motivation.
The context of DigitACT is the pandemic which has highly affected performing arts. Young actors
and technicians who are about to enter the respective job market or have just entered it are facing
huge difficulties in adapting to these new circumstances for which they were not sufficiently trained
in their drama schools and faculties. In many countries, lots of plays were streamed through the
web in exceptionally low quality, thus degrading the image of the artistic product and the artists
themselves.
On the other hand, young actors, who are now trying to build their professional profile, meaning
their web presence – professional platforms, digital portfolios, digital networking spaces, digital
CVs, audition videos, self-presentation during online interviews/auditions – must upgrade their
digital skills as a manner of boosting their personal digital marketing skills, enhancing their career
development.
DigitACT project addresses the above-mentioned needs helping young actors and young technicians
to be better included in the performing arts job market which is under a dramatic transformation.
