Learning by Doing: A New Era for Leather Goods Training in Europe

Thursday, April 17, 2025 - 10:54English
Last week, partners from Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Poland, and Romania came together in Iasi, Romania, to drive forward the Erasmus+ project Learning Factories, a pioneering initiative that places European leather goods companies at the forefront of innovation, sustainability, and education through a “learning by doing” approach. Partners have completed the development of the four forward-looking curricula: Leather Goods Design for Circularity, AI Supporting Design and Pattern-Making, 3D Printing for Prototyping and Tools for Industrialisation, and Digital Transformation of Manufacturing Operations. The focus is now on the creation of the respective innovative, multilingual learning materials (in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Polish, and Romanian) that combine concise video modules (“video pills”) with AI-powered learning resources. These resources will include interactive questions, real-world problems, and case-based solutions delivered through an intuitive app designed for use by trainers and trainees, particularly within workplace settings.
