This alliance aims to increase the quality and competitiveness of European higher education by using dual training to solve global challenges.

The alliance generates knowledge on how to contribute to a more sustainable future and the responsible development of society and companies, training experts on topics such as Industry 5.0, healthy aging and the green economy.

EU4Dual also seeks to guarantee that the majority of the programs offered by the dual university include elements of research, teaching or internships of at least two members of the institution. Likewise, a joint micro-credential portal will be launched, offering continuous professional development linked to grand challenges, along with a joint research ecosystem of projects that support the achievement of different objectives. Finally, a transnational work-based learning program is being created with support from local and global companies.
