The development of technology and digitalization has caused changes in the methods, models, and practices used in educational activities. While gastronomy education, which is carried out with theoretical and practical training activities, tries to adapt itself to digital education practices, the digital education competencies of academicians who provide gastronomy education should also be developed. It is seen that there are no standards and principles regarding DIGI-GASE throughout the EU. Creating a guide and digital education material that will help higher education institutions and academicians providing gastronomy education in digital education will ensure higher quality and effective gastronomy education. In this context, the DIGI-GASE project aims to improve the digital gastronomy education competencies of academicians who teach gastronomy at higher education institutions. The project also aims to prepare a guide to lead universities in the transition to digital gastronomy education.The goals of the DIGI-GASE project;•Development of DIGI-GASE guide for the use of universities across the EU,•Preparation of educational content and videos that will improve the knowledge and skills of academicians,•Dissemination of the DIGI-GASE guide locally, regionally, nationally, and across the EU•Developing the knowledge and skills of the project partners in the field of DIGI-GASE•Preparation of guidelines for technical and physical regulation of gastronomy education areas of higher education institutions providing DIGI-GASE education•Increasing the institutional capacities of the project partners by improving their project preparation, cooperation, and production skills•Increasing the capacity of project partners to organize digital gastronomy training activitiesThe project partnership is cooperation which was formed among Unıversıta Deglı Studı Dı Scıenze Gastronomıche (IT), European Digital Learning Network (IT), Instıtut Paul Bocuse - Applıcatıon (FR) and E.A.C.E. - European Academy of Certified Education gGmbH (DE), under the leadership of Akdeniz University (TR). In the project, determination of technical and human competencies that will enable universities to provide digital gastronomy education in digital transformation (IO1); Preparation of a guide to be used by universities in digital gastronomy education (IO2); Preparation of digital education materials (IO3) in order to develop the digital education competencies of academicians providing gastronomy education.Two training activities will be organized to improve the knowledge and skills of academicians and university officials about DIGI-GASE; To be held for C1 and C2 project partners' team members and academicians working in partner organizations. In addition, as the dissemination activities of DIGI-GASE, each partner will organize multiplier events at the national level. The project results will be published on the project website to be created by the coordinator partner, and a link will be provided from the partner organizations' own websites to the project website. In order for the project to be sustainable and reach more people, the training videos to be prepared as a result of IO3 will be made available free of charge on the project website and social networking platforms.In addition, dissemination activities will be organized at the national level within the scope of the promotional visits of the DIGI-GASE guide to universities providing gastronomy education.•DIGI-GASE guide will facilitate the work of universities providing gastronomy education in EU countries,•The digital education competencies and skills of those who participate in training and dissemination activities as well as access training materials will increase.•The academicians participating in the training will apply the project outputs in their own institutions and lessons so that these skills can be transferred to other colleagues,•The innovative digital gastronomy training method that will emerge will be applicable across Europe.•The results and outputs of the DIGI-GASE project will serve academicians who need digital gastronomy education for a long time.•The digital gastronomy education guide and its content can be updated and developed to change and develop conditions.•Project outputs will guide new academicians who will provide gastronomy education in the orientation process.•Through the project, students who receive gastronomy education will be able to participate in a more effective learning process.
