Context

The Liguria, Piedmont and Valle d’Aosta Hub of Dicolab. Cultura al digitale serves as both a physical reference point and a regional network for local stakeholders. Its goal is to promote a comprehensive training programme and to strengthen connections between cultural and creative professionals and the digital ecosystem — including innovative companies, start-ups, and digital experts.

The initiative supports the ongoing national digital transformation of the cultural sector.
Dicolab. Cultura al digitale is a training system promoted by the Italian Ministry of Culture – Digital Library, within the framework of PNRR Cultura 4.0, implemented by the National School for Cultural Heritage and Activities, and funded by the European Union – Next GenerationEU.

Objectives

The Liguria, Piedmont and Valle d’Aosta Hub aims to offer a calendar of courses designed to meet the needs of professionals working in the cultural and creative fields — including MAB institutions, cultural organizations, enterprises, local associations, academics, and researchers.
Its purpose is to strengthen digital skills across the sector, thereby enhancing the effectiveness and impact of cultural organizations and professionals.

By leveraging technological developments and integrating digital tools into cultural practices, participants will be able to improve audience engagement, heritage access, and cultural value creation and preservation.
To achieve these goals, the training pathway is designed to provide practical, hands-on learning, equipping professionals with tools and skills they can apply directly in their daily work. The courses will therefore be highly interactive and practice-oriented.

Training Programme

Running from March 2025 to June 2026, the training programme includes over 40 courses, each lasting three hours, entirely free of charge and certified through Open Badges issued upon completion.
The courses cover a wide range of topics, carefully tailored to the diverse needs of institutions operating in the cultural and creative sectors.
