With the end of 2024, at the end of December, the Erasmus+ eVETbikes project is also concluding, which has been running under the leadership of the lead partner Hacettepe University (Turkey) since December 2022.
In the modern world, which is increasingly focused on sustainability and environmental solutions, the project represented a key educational initiative in the electric bicycle sector. The 7 project partners, including Academia, have trained new generations of professionals in the field of electric bicycle maintenance and repair through the project – a challenge that is becoming increasingly important in light of the growing demand for e-bikes.
Together with the lead partner, EGO (Turkey), Guvercinlik Hasan Gulhan MTAL (Turkey), EU&PRO (Czech Republic), Liceul Tehnologic de Transporturi Auto Targoviste (Romania) and Academia (Slovenia) have developed quality learning modules that combine theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary for work in the e-bike industry and are aligned with labour market needs.
Participants in the project activities acquired knowledge about electric bicycle technology, safety standards and legislation. E-bikes, known for their positive impact on reducing carbon footprint, have become a symbol of sustainable mobility, and the eVETbikes project has also contributed to reducing environmental footprint and combating climate change by promoting their use and training professionals.
As part of the project, handbooks were developed, accessible on the eVETbikes platform, which offer valuable information for teachers, lecturers, students and all those interested in the field of sustainable mobility. The platform serves as a comprehensive resource where users can access learning content and connect and collaborate with other professionals in this rapidly growing sector.
An important part of the eVETbikes project was also the implementation of promotional events in partner countries, which enabled the exchange of experiences and best practices among various stakeholders, including educational institutions, companies and local communities. The events were an excellent opportunity for networking, collaboration and spreading knowledge about electric bicycles and their importance for sustainable mobility.
