In our efforts to bring the CAMSS action to a wider audiences, we have crafted an introductory eLearning course hosted by the Interoperable Europe Academy. The course, targeted to IT professionals in public administrations, eGovernment and public sector Project Managers, or professionals involved in developing, implementing, or managing eGovernment solutions, among other professional profiles. 

The course introduces the Common Assessment Method for Standards and Specifications (CAMSS), an action for assessing standards and specifications and helping its inclusion within eGovernment projects. It is divided in several sections, starting with an introduction to what CAMSS is and why it is key to achieve interoperability in the field of ICT. This is followed by a deep dive into the CAMSS core elements: Solutions and Assets. Finally, you will discover how CAMSS supports the Interoperable Europe Act.
