3D Technologies transform learning: Introducing the Erasmus+ Project 3D Academy

At the final conference of the Erasmus+ project GreenTech Entrepreneurship Challenge Hub (GTECH), held on 29 September 2025 in Sarajevo, another European initiative connecting technology and education through innovative approaches was presented – the Erasmus+ project 3D Academy (3D Technologies for VET).

The project was presented by Lejla Zvrko, Senior Mechanical Engineer at FabLab Bosnia and Herzegovina, an organization actively engaged in developing digital educational tools and promoting 3D technologies in education and industry.

During the presentation, the main objectives of the 3D Academy project were highlighted: enhancing knowledge and skills in the field of 3D technologies through teacher training, developing interactive digital resources, and fostering collaboration between educational institutions and industry. The presentation also featured an online learning platform available in five languages, offering courses in 3D modeling, scanning, and printing, designed for teachers, students, and technical professionals.

Teachers, students, and participants had the opportunity to learn about the project’s tangible results, including research conducted in more than 170 educational institutions across the region, as well as the development of a qualification framework based on micro-credentials, which enables the formal recognition of acquired digital competencies.

The presentation further emphasized the importance of 3D technologies as a key tool for modernizing education, fostering creativity, and strengthening the connection between education and the labor market.
