First TDA Academy Series: A focus on the TDA’s executive curriculum on transport decarbonisation
On 15 September, the TDA, together with the University of Clermont Auvergne in France, held the webinar entitled Bridging the gap in executive education of transport decarbonisation. This webinar zoomed in on the curriculum produced by the Executive Education Community of Interest initiated by Portugal in 2019 and created in association with academia, research institutions and other partners to offer active professionals and graduate students an opportunity to become leaders in the field. Currently, the curriculum has been utilised at the University of Clermont-Auvergne.
The webinar touched on key elements of the curriculum, what has been done so far by the entities that have implemented it and discussed the next steps on how to rediscover this key product of the TDA.
