Hiedanranta’s Learning Village project is a vocational education development project that aims to develop an innovative, reformed learning environment to better serve young people, adults, immigrants and the labour force needs of companies in the region. The learning environment we have in mind is called Learning Village. The Learning Village concept will serve a group of customers who do not benefit from existing labour-intensive ways of learning. The objectives of the reform to enable workplace learning are strongly taken into account in the creation of the concept and support will be added to the operating model in several forms. The source of ideas is the Business Village’s teaching concept, which enables comprehensive school students to familiarise themselves with the functions of society and entrepreneurship. The idea of the Learning Village is carried out in cooperation with the actors of the local authority experiment in Pirkanmaa and the companies in the region. Ideas and implementation take into account the needs of the target groups of the municipal experiment and of the guiding parties. The project involves a lot of co-development with companies in the region. With the help of the concept, the aim of the design of the Learning Village activities is to increase community learning as well as the benefits of peer-to-peer support in increasing motivation and attachment. Tampere Region Vocational College has tried teaching on a small scale in the region. Tredu has worked in the area with a degree in cleanliness and real estate services. On the basis of this experiment, Tredu has been asked to further develop and expand its operations in this environment, where there are a lot of functional elements for the possibilities of a highly supported learning environment simulating labour-intensive learning by the customer group reform. Existing activities are developed, expanded, organised more efficiently, modelled into complete training paths and creating multi-professional coaching and guidance cooperation to support the customer’s overall path. The starting points for the development of the operations are the reform of vocational education, labour-intensive learning, the needs of the target group for support, the development of immigrant education in a heterogeneous environment, and strong business cooperation and network cooperation. The project’s work is taken forward with the help of service design processes by co-development. The project is implemented by Tampere University of Applied Sciences and partners include Hiedanrannnan Kehitys Oy, Agreementvuori ry and Tampere International Centre of Excellence for Immigrants.The aim is to create a learning village in an area called Hiedanranta. Hiedanranta is a key project for the strategic development of the City of Tampere. The region is developing a living environment that represents sustainable development and community. A new design and a tram connection are coming to the area. Hiedanranta is built with the ideology of sustainable development, and there are many projects related to the topic, as well as many small businesses and associations in the region. Contractvuori produces rehabilitative work activities for the City of Tampere’s employment services. The City of Tampere is currently increasing the effectiveness of rehabilitative work activities by studying periods of work as far as possible. Tredu is in cooperation with Agreementvuori in the study of rehabilitative work activities and in the path of customers to vocational training. The project can be used to create comprehensive pathways serving the customer, combining the resources of the network operators. As measures, the project will help to develop, organise and coordinate a learning environment similar to the Business Village concept, enable the region to co-develop the area within the framework of secondary education, create a functional pedagogical model for the area, pilot and test the operating models to be developed, and root the developed activities. The project’s output is a ready-made operating environment, a community learning village with educational paths from pre-vocational activities (e.g. rehabilitative work activities, integration training, Valma) through vocational education and training to work, as well as a pedagogical framework that fits into the operational environment and the reform of vocational education. In addition, suitable coaching and control models have been modelled and cooperation with other actors in the city has been agreed for them. The project is used to create business cooperation in the learning environment. In addition to Tredu’s own activities, the ideas for developing the environment take into account the wishes of the network, the wishes of the authorities, the wishes of Hiedanrannnan Development Oy and the ideas created by the Business Village teaching concept.
