This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the initiatives and projects funded under Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe linked to Action 4 and Action 17 of the ERA policy agenda. These actions are pivotal in enhancing the skills of researchers and research managers across Europe, thereby strengthening the overall European R&I ecosystem.
The report reviews 16 projects, showcasing their goals, methods and results, with a focus on skills such as open science, entrepreneurship and innovation, to foster a flexible research workforce. It also examines skill development within the alliances, which play a key role in piloting frameworks for research careers and competencies, emphasising the enhancement of human capital in R&I.
Furthermore, the role of research managers has gained prominence in the last years, with initiatives aimed at enhancing their skills and the related professional rewarding and recognition.
Recommendations in this report advocate for the use of ResearchComp to centralise and link dedicated skills training courses to competencies and proficiency levels, fostering skills development and recognition for researchers at all career stages. Recommendations also address the promotion of the integration and connection between ResearchComp and the upcoming research managers’ competence framework. The aim is to share methodologies, support cross-disciplinary and cross-sectoral collaboration, and validate, formalise and value researchers’ and research managers’ skills.

The Marie SkÅ‚odowska-Curie Action (MSCA) European Innovative Training Network “PBNv2 - Next generation Pass-By Noise approaches for new powertrain vehicles” started in May 2017. Their research has the shared objective of investigating the possibilities to decrease pass-by noise of vehicles.
The project is a collaboration between 17 research institutions and companies in the European automotive R&D and provides a learning environment for 14 PhD fellows. The Belgian partner is the Noise and Vibration Research Group of KU Leuven, and this project is one of the many Horizon 2020 MSCA Innovative Training Networks that the KU Leuven research group participates in.
