The EUcare4.0 project addresses a critical gap in European vocational and healthcare education: the absence of structured training on Health 4.0 technologies for mental health professionals. Funded under Erasmus+ (2021–2023), the consortium developed three Open Educational Resources (OERs): (1) an introductory publication on Health 4.0; (2) ten modular training components on eHealth, AI, IoT, big data, and immersive technologies; and (3) an intuitive, multilingual online learning space with case studies, self-assessment tools, and certification. Implemented across six European partners and supported by over 30 associate organisations, the project engaged more than 260 participants in multiplier events, attracted over 20,000 unique website visitors, and achieved a satisfaction rate exceeding 98%. All resources are freely available at https://eucare40.eu under a Creative Commons licence. EUcare4.0 thus offers a replicable, human-centred model for inclusive digital transformation in European mental healthcare.
