DIAdemia Platform​

DIAdemia – Digital Learning for Circular Manufacturing Excellence

Empowering the Workforce for the Green & Digital Transition

DIAdemia is the e-learning ecosystem developed within the DIAMETER project to accelerate skills development, knowledge transfer, and industrial adoption of circular manufacturing practices.

Built on the open-source European platform ILIAS, DIAdemia delivers high-quality, interactive training content to support technicians, engineers, decision-makers, and industrial professionals in mastering additive manufacturing, sustainability assessment, and digital process optimization.

A Strategic Learning Hub for the Industry of Tomorrow

Why DIAdemia?

Europe’s manufacturing sector is undergoing rapid transformation. To meet the challenges of:

  • Circular economy integration
  • AI and digital tool adoption
  • Carbon footprint reduction
  • EU Digital Product Passport (DPP) compliance

...a skilled, sustainability-aware workforce is essential.

DIAdemia bridges the skills gap with structured learning paths aligned with the technological pillars of DIAMETER.

Platform Architecture

DIAdemia is powered by ILIAS (Integrated Learning, Information, and Assessment System)—a robust, EU-developed LMS that guarantees:

  • Content & Learning Management (CLMS) capabilities
  • GDPR-compliant data privacy and digital sovereignty
  • Scalability for corporate and academic training
  • Multilingual support and modular content delivery
  • Interactive learning experiences (quizzes, simulations, videos, case-based assessments)
  • Role-based access for learners, trainers, and institutions

This makes DIAdemia a future-proof solution for sustainable workforce development.
