SVEA - Promoting web 2.0 uptake for organisational and personnel development in VET and adult training was selected in 2008, and funded from 1 January 2010 until 31 December 2011 by the European Commission, under the Lifelong Learning Programme - Leonardo Da Vinci - Multilateral projects for the Development of Innovation. (VET stands for Vocational Education and Training.)

Background
SVEA addresses the collaboration and web 2.0 skills of teachers and trainers in both VET and adult training institutions, with a special focus on personnel and organizational development. Providing these institutions with the means for target oriented communication and knowledge exchange, will stimulate active co-development of organizational processes and tools, and will at the same time enable teachers and trainers to use those tools to empower learner-centered and self paced teaching.
Outputs
SVEA will develop an online platform offering custom web 2.0 tools for trainers and teachers, combined with both an online and a face to face training program to help the target group master these web 2.0 applications. Guidelines and training material to guarantee successful implementation will also be designed. The platform will be accessible beginning 2011.
Results
SVEA's goal is to cultivate new work processes and communication strategies through the use of net-based technology. Upgrading e-skills in VET and adult training institutions will foster innovation and change in personnel and organizational management.
Impact
- More efficient organizational processes
- Improved collaboration through web 2.0 tools
- A resulting co-development climate allowing for greater competitiveness and visibility in the education market.
Partners
- MFG Baden-Württemberg mbH - Germany
- CSP - ICT Innovation - Italy
- EuroPACE ivzw - Belgium
- FUNDECYT - Spain
- Coleg Sir Gâr - UK
Initial outputs
In the period between March and June 2010 the SVEA consortium conducted a regional needs analysis on the needs, trends and barriers on implementing web 2.0 in VET and adult training.
The overall regional analysis summarising all the different regional reports and with a more general perspective can be found at http://www.svea-project.eu/fileadmin/_svea/downloads/SVEA_Regional_Needs_Analysis_01.pdf
There are also analyses for the partners' countries/regions, linked from the page http://www.svea-project.eu/4175.html
In view of other projects under way in Wales, such as Gwella, the report on Wales may be of particular interest - see http://www.svea-project.eu/fileadmin/_svea/downloads/100714_Wales_Regional_Needs_Analysis_Report.pdf
