FUTURES is one course in four modules. You take all four, in order, over eight weeks. No tuition and no entry requirements. Take it online in English, or in person in one of the consortium cities.
All four are required. They run in order, because each one assumes what came before it.
The part that decides whether the technical part gets you anywhere. How to organise yourself, work with people you did not choose, and keep going when a course gets hard.
Turning an idea into something that exists. Spotting a problem worth solving, putting numbers to it, and explaining it to someone who could back it.
What generative AI actually does, how to use it well, and when not to use it at all. Practical from the first session.
How to protect yourself and other people online. Starts with what affects you every day and ends at the foundations of ethical hacking.
Same syllabus, same certificate. You choose how you take it.
At your own pace, on your phone, whenever you can. In English, with subtitles and a transcript. No dates and no limited places: you start the day you decide to.
Face-to-face sessions in Albacete, Vilnius and the other consortium sites. In the language of the country, with a trainer in front of you and people beside you. Small groups and fixed dates.
Three messages picked at random. Two of them are trying to rob you. This is the kind of thing module 04 spends two weeks on.
Real attacks are better written than these, and they arrive on a day you are tired. Recognising them is a skill, and it is teachable.

The MOOC is finished and running on our platform. What is missing is the public access link, which the consortium opens when enrolment for the first cohort starts. Leave your email and we send it to you directly.
All six partner organisations have validated the content of the four modules and agreed the calendar for the first cohort. Three days of work hosted by Vilnius Tech.
Short videos, exercises that need nothing installed, and automatic marking. The technical decisions behind the campus, and the options we ruled out.
A pilot group of thirty people across the five countries will review the content before launch. Taking part is voluntary and requires no prior knowledge.
Six organisations from five countries. Each one owns a part of the course, and none of it works without the others.
