2.1 Procedure

Title : Training Development Services in AI and Data Science for National Competition Authorities in EU Member States
Description : EIT Digital seeks a Contractor that cooperates with EIT Digital to create, develop and deliver training plans for National Competition Authorities (NCA). In the field of Law enforcement, the National Competition Authorities (NCA) face growing challenges due to evolving digital markets, platform dynamics, data-driven business models, and algorithmic pricing. The goal is to equip the NCAs with the capacity to address competition issues in the digital economy using modern tools (AI, data science), methodologies, and a shared knowledge base. The purpose of this assignment is to develop a training programme that enables NCAs to effectively address anti-competitive behaviour. The Contractor will design and deliver training sessions through multiple formats including asynchronous e-learning modules and hands-on labs (face-to-face or online). To further knowledge transfer, the contractor will also develop a Train the Trainer programme to prepare selected points of contact to serve as internal trainers within each NCA. Through this procedure, EIT Digital aims to identify a suitable Contractor with proven expertise in capacity building in digital science, AI and competition law enforcement.
