Developing a structured training and further education program in quantum technologies - an overview of the Quantum LifeLong Learning course program

Quantum technologies have the potential to disrupt various industries. As these technologies mature and transition from university research labs to real-world industry applications, it thus becomes increasingly important for professionals across different disciplines to acquire a comprehensive understanding of their capabilities and applications. Acknowledging this need, the Quantum LifeLong Learning (QL3) project, an initiative from the Munich universities, has been established. The QL3 project is a training and further education program tailored for diverse target groups within the industry. It caters to professionals ranging from managers and leaders without a technical background who seek an overview of quantum technologies over engineers looking for a thorough understanding of the field to quantum experts seeking a detailed introduction to fault-tolerant quantum computing. We outline our course program and share insights from the lessons we learned during its development.
