VAIA
VAIA accelerates the adoption of AI in Flemish companies and organisations by gathering and redistributing a broad and relevant range of AI training courses for professionals in Flanders.
We help training organisations tailor their courses to meet current and future AI needs, by providing insights into the AI training requirements of different professional sectors and connecting them with AI expertise from academia and industry.
As a bridge-builder, we facilitate the smooth exchange of AI knowledge between academics and businesses. In this way, we promote lifelong learning in Flanders and make AI knowledge accessible for everyone.
