Type: LLP-ERASMUS
Period: 1 Jan 2020 - 30 Jun 2023

OBJECTIVES

The objectives of LEARN are:

• To develop an ISO certification for the organisations which will apply specific processes and activities and will get transformed into Learning Workplaces.
• To identify/design activities which an organisation should perform to become a Learning Workplace along with accompanying tools to be included in the certification scheme for organisations.
• To develop a positive attitude towards the transformation of organisations into Learning Workplaces through the design of attitude tests and training material as well as through the implementation of specialised workshops for employers/employer representatives and employees, so that both sides can support the process.
• To develop transversal competences in the workplace primarily through classroom learning (basic development through the training material which will be designed) and secondarily through the implementation of other learning activities.
• To validate employees’ key transversal skills through the development of an assessment tool leading to an ISO17024 certification.
• To develop a network of consultants to act as project ambassadors and lead the organisations to their transformation into Learning Workplaces.  

BENEFITS

The benefits of LEARN are:

• To employers/employer representatives, a well-branded certification for the organisations which will get transformed into Learning Workplaces.
• To employees, a set of effective activities which will facilitate their continuous learning in the workplace. As employees spend a large amount of their time at work, the workplace should be an important learning environment for them; through the LEARN activities, employees will be able to develop not only job-related skills but also basic transversal competences which make people more effective and resilient to changes in their career and life.
