The Layers project overview
2
• Problem addressed:– Massive unemployment and at the same time lack of skilled
talents in growth areas.– to create more jobs we need to build a workforce with the right
skills faster
• Focus of the project and the upscaling effort– clusters represent growth sectors and experience lack of
talents with the right skills. A major barrier to regional job creation.
– clusters are arenas to match business skills need and education offerings better.
– Can clusters be used to scale uptake of new and existing collaborative learning technology in workplace learning.
• Layers: an FP 7-Integrated R&I project– nov 2012 until nov 2016/13 mill Euro budget

European Learning challenges
• Current learning related problems– By 2020 20% more jobs will require higher
level skills. – Large dropout rates at VET/Universities
(35-70%)– Rising cost of education- low take up of
new technologies and methods – Lifelong learning participation is only 8,9 %
i.e many employed people do not update their skills.
• Stated EU 2020 goals– 40% of Young Europeans to complete higher
education.3

Europe 2020 effort areas
• World Class VET to raise quality of VET skills.
• Promoting work based learning – i.e dual learning models (workplace and school)
• Traineeships, • apprenticeships
– Workplace as primary learning campus.• Lifelong Learning efforts• Partnerships between private and
public institutions (to combat skills mismatch)

Layers value opportunity
• Develop and use new technologies, collaborative work practices and methods to:– Increase effectiveness in Lifelong learning
of current workforce– Increase use of workplace as learning
campus for new talents- on demand individual and organisational learning
– Increase the value of the learning related work that the talent performs while learning at the workplace. This enable apprentice type salaries for students

Clustersthe Layers scaling strategy
6
• Research and develop solutions by working with Excellence clusters and cluster policy makers.– Piloting in Healthcare and construction.– Involving ICT Clusters to create coordinated sustainable
development of learning technology– Involve new clusters in new countries
• Build sustainability beyond project horizon by:– Invite existing ICT clusters to participate in a network of
Education Innovation Clusters to serve other regional clusters with services and technologies to speed uptake of new learning methods, digital learning content and technology.
– Promote regional collaboration between clusters and their shared educational institutions to address skills developments services together to build sustainable income from skills related members services to the cluster organizations.

• Work with us to improve Your clusters ability to learn faster?– Ability to recruit the best talents– Build world class technology supported
curricula in the cluster core knowledge area– Improve effectiveness of workplace learning/
lifelong learning in your member base.– Get sustainable funding to the cluster
organization from skills services?– Get close to learning policy makers
• How?– Network with our pilot clusters– Do new collaborative European R&I projects
with the Layers team and its partners– Become a pilot cluster– Receive findings, attend workshops++
