About the research
Thousands of logistics vacancies remain unfilled in Flanders and the Netherlands. Researcher Eline Bens (AP University of Applied Sciences and Arts Antwerp) shows how the Interreg project 'Warehouse Heroes of Tomorrow' focuses on practical learning materials, knowledge clips and a virtual warehouse environment to prepare low-skilled and foreign-language newcomers more quickly for the warehouse of the future.
She is looking for companies with logistics activities to participate in the pilot project: contribute your ideas about crucial skills and test the tools in your workplace.
