Learning effectively for and in the workplace – Future Skill „Learning Competence“

Held by Bianca Geurden from the Career Service.

Work takes place in a context of constant change, dynamic processes, and new challenges. This makes it all the more important to stay on top of things, set new learning goals, and develop learning strategies—thereby actively shaping your own progress. In this self-paced course, we’ll explore a fundamental future skill: learning competence. It will help you, as an employee, achieve long-term success throughout your career and view challenges as opportunities.

Information

Contents of the Self-Study Course

You’ll explore how learning processes are organized, what “lifelong learning” means, and which strategies and factors contribute to sustainable learning. The goal is also to develop your own small “learning project”—whether for your studies or professional life—through which you can experiment with which learning patterns work best for you.

In the reflection workshop, you’ll have the opportunity to share your questions, insights, and ideas with other participants and explore how they relate to your professional prospects in greater depth.
