HumanNova
Excellence in Education in the Humanoid Supernova Era
HumaNova drives the next frontier of human–humanoid collaboration through excellence in VET and regional innovation. HumaNova steps forward to actively shape this emerging landscape, equipping VET systems with the capacity to respond to the coming up rise of humanoids. The project establishes a pan-European network of 6 Centres of Vocational Excellence in France, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Greece, and Belgium to accelerate readiness for humanoid integration. It will build a European Humanoid Skills Alliance to anticipate skills needs, co-create dual-use curricula, and pilot innovative training programmes embedded in real-world humanoid use cases.
