LIP - Learning In Process

Empower individuals to manage their own learning

LIP is intended to empower individuals to define, procure (in a proactive way depending on particular role and task of the users) and manage their own learning for work within an organisational context, which offers rich sources for inferring user needs.

Learning-in-process system

IST-2001-32518

The strategic impact on the ability of European firms, government organisations and individual knowledge workers is that of enabling a flexible and rapid response to a fast changing and unpredictable environment, creating a competitive edge for these people and organisations. While standard training programmes, including current e-learning systems, focus on a static gap between strategic needs and current skills, a learning-in-process system observes and responds to whatever needs arise due to changes in the role of knowledge workers or the nature of the projects and tasks they undertake. When the appropriate content is not available and cannot be sourced in a packaged form, it is also easy to develop and deploy the required knowledge. The strategic intent, then, is to drastically reduce response times in a changing environment with a minimum of bureaucracy and cost. Flexible execution, or "flexicution," is the desired behavioural result.

For this reason, the project aims to build the next generation of an integrated set of e-learning elements that support a highly contextualised, collaborative learning-in-process environment for members of public and private organisations. According to the Gartner Group, the embedding of learning and knowledge into business processes in a collaborative format will provid e significant growth over the next several years in the broadly defined field of e-HR. In order to support this coming trend, the intent is to prepare for integrating the learning environment into broader knowledge-enabled business process contexts, so th at the interaction between the two is mutually enriching in terms of both technical functionality and the total impact on the personal growth of individual users,

The final goal of the LIP project is the creation of an integrated system of e-learning elements that faciities to the users a complete contextualisation of the learning process referring to an organisation and its need in real time.
