AHEDIS - Advancing Higher Education through Digital Innovation and Smart technologies

The AHEDIS project aims to enhance the digital competencies of academic staff within four Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Sarajevo and Banja Luka) and Montenegro (Podgorica). Collaborating with EU partners, this project will implement comprehensive training sessions and digitally transform existing courses at four faculties in the Western Balkan Countries (WBC) using the flipped classroom approach and AI solutions. Focusing on the evolving needs of healthcare professionals, AHEDIS also develops tailored lifelong learning programs (LLL) for industry professionals in participating WBC, using the potential of AI and innovative pedagogical approaches to introduce innovation and digital skills in healthcare. This project contributes to bridging the gap between the labor market challenges faced by health professionals and the existing capabilities of HEIs. It aims to improve teaching processes, elevate the skills of academic staff, and ensure an increase in employability and R&D workplaces in the healthcare industry. By empowering health-oriented students, academicians and professionals, AHEDIS endeavors to positively impact the socio-economic landscape and enhance HEI capacities in terms of infrastructure, equipment and workforce.
