Summary: Personnel and organisational development plays a significant role for the strategic development of every organisation. Especially organisations whose business concept foots on the knowledge of highly qualified employees such as training institutions are dependent on innovative personnel and organisational management concepts. An effective and target-oriented communication and knowledge exchange is an important asset but is only possible with an organisational culture away from the hierarchical model towards flat hierarchies and self-organisation of teams.
SVEA addresses the collaboration and web 2.0 skills of teachers and trainers in VET and adult training institutions with a special focus on personnel and organisational development. Trainings will not only empower teachers and trainers within their organisation enabling them to actively co-develop their organisational processes within their organisation; but at the same time will also enable them use these tools for learner-centred teaching.
Main results include the developing and promoting of new forms of working, qualification and communication processes through the usage of innovative, net-based technologies and secondly, upgrading e-skills in VET and adult training institutions with regard to personnel and organisational development
Outputs of the SVEA project will be:
-Online and face to face trainings on organisational development with web 2.0
- Training material such as guidelines on successful implementation of web 2.0 in training institutions
- Report on web 2.0 uptake in VET and adult training institutions
- Platform offering Web 2.0 tools
The expected impact on the main target group of teachers and trainers is they will upgrade their web 2.0 and collaboration competences. Furthermore, VET and adult training institutions will have more efficient organisational processes and improved services which lead to visibility and greater competitiveness. Finally the educational system will benefit through further development towards design for all/co-develop approaches.
