Through its members, EeSA promotes the exchange of ideas, awareness raising and good practices at EU and Member State levels; it supports the development of tools and methodologies for the governance of e-skills; and it leads the implementation of concrete e-skills activities in cooperation with other stakeholders.
EeSA works in partnership with public authorities across Europe, industry sectors, SMEs and all relevant stakeholders, building upon recommendations and reference initiatives for e-skills. The members of EeSA include CEPIS, Cisco Systems, CompTIA, ECDL Foundation, ECONET, EITO, euroCIO, European Schoolnet, EXIN, , HP, Intel, Microsoft, Motorola, and Oracle.
