Creation and further development of working conditions conducive to learning

Apart from education and qualification measures, learning in the Working process contributes especially to the development of competences. This form of learning can be supported by the design of the workplace according to learning conducive criteria i.e. the creation of cooperation and communication opportunities, the participation of the employees, adequate feedback on personal work results and ergonomically suitable ambient conditions. Meaning to build up a learning organisation. To come to recommendations, instruments are made available to analyse existing workplaces on their suitability as learning locations.
From the results, suggestions for changes or rearrangements of the workplaces are raised.
By the examination of the workplaces among other things, hints will arise on how further training can be tied into the practical tasks.
