EduHack: Building Learning Pathways with Low-Code and GenAI

Organisations are increasingly turning to low-code and GenAI platforms to streamline HR processes and empower employees. This hackathon invites participants to build solutions that help match skills with tasks, create personalised learning journeys, and support workforce development. Your challenge is to prototype a tool or system that leverages low-code and GenAI to make HR decisions more data-driven and interoperable across platforms. Whether it's a skill-matching engine, a career path recommender, or a training dashboard, your solution should demonstrate how low-code solutions can support data-driven, more agile workforce management.

 

The onsite location for attending this blended hackathon in person is: Gustav III:s Boulevard 130, Solna, Stockholm
