It is a joint effort by Greek, industry, educational and training institutions, startups and HR agencies, aiming to motivate young people to improve their e-skills and employability, increase their entrepreneurial skills and learn about new technologies.http://bit.ly/Z6Rcs5

The project is led by the Hellenic Professionals Informatics Society (HePIS), Microsoft Greece and Peoplecert. It is financed by the global Microsoft Youthspark program and carried out via the cooperation of: The American College of Greece (Deree College), the ALBA Graduate Business School and 13 more stakeholders and sponsors.

The motto of Getbusy.gr is “unleash your potential” and achieves that by giving free access to educational material, divided into four categories. The informational and educational material of Gebusy.gr largely meets the priorities set by the EU on the digital skills. It also contributes simultaneously to two basic problems: the digital divide and the opportunity divide.
