Swedish version of new educational program underway

Nov 25 2010  A Swedish version of the Focus program in the Papertrain educational project for the paper industry is now underway in cooperation with The Packaging Greenhouse in Karlstad.

The educational Focus program is developed by the Dutch educational center of the paper industry, Vapa. The program is based on a learning system with the possibility for self-study using more than 3,000 video-clips and animations. There are more than 40 modules developed in close cooperation with different experts in Europe.“Seeing is believing,” says Vapa Director Peter Lokhorst. “Everybody knows that reading information has less impact than if you see, hear and experience something. The Focus program involves more than 100 hours of visualized information; videos, animations, questions, simulations and self-tests.” Vapa has so far developed the Focus modules for the paper-, board- and corrugated board industry in four languages. The Focus program was presented at a seminar in Stockholm 2008, andat the moment Vapa is working on a Swedish translation together with The Packaging Greenhouse in Karlstad“With this Focus program the Paper industry is ahead of most other industries,” Peter Lokhorst says. He was asked to present the Focus modules for the more than 300 participants of the Leonardo da Vinci conference in Brussels in the beginning of November.
