  Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and Cooperative Intelligent Transport
Systems (C-ITS) are of high significance, mainly due to the benefits they have
in terms of operation of the transport network. Despite ITS and C-ITS
importance in the operation of the transport network, there is a major
knowledge gap regarding their development, way of operation and significance
worldwide and especially among the responsible for their deployment public
authorities. In order for such fragmentations to be tackled, an online training
platform concerning the operation and impacts of ITS and C-ITS has been
designed in the framework of the European Union Horizon 2020 funded CAPITAL
project. In order for the proper design of the CAPITAL Online Training
Platform, two main approaches have been studied: capacity building and massive
open online courses. The present study provides insight regarding the design
and the context of the CAPITAL Online Training Platform.
