On Friday, July 2, 2021, the final event of the KoLearn joint project was held at the Kassel Education Center in Waldau. At the hybrid event, in which the guests and project partners were connected both physically and digitally, the partners were able to present the results of the almost 4-year project to a broad public. Afterwards, the guests were able to explore the Kassel training center either virtually by means of a 360° tour or physically and experience the use of the KLuQ system (KoLeArn learning and qualification system) in practice.

KoLearn, which stands for "Context-sensitive learning services in the work process of smart industrial manufacturing", has been researching the changing production and working conditions in industrial manufacturing and the resulting qualification requirements of employees in Germany and China over the past 3 3/4 years. The program, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, ran from October 2017 to October 2020, but was extended by three quarters of a year due to Corona and finally ended on June 30, 2021.

The main focus of the event was the presentation of the project results of the joint project. The project partners were the departments of Business Informatics and Business Didactics at the University of Kassel, Lyncronize GmbH, Bildungszentrum Kassel GmbH and Wirtschaftsförderung Region Kassel GmbH.

After the guests and partners were welcomed by the network coordinator Prof. Dr. Leimeister from the Department of Information Systems and the hostess of the Bildungszentrum Kassel Katrin Bock, all project participants presented their results. This was followed by a tour of the industrial departments of the Kassel Training Center, during which those involved on site were able to get a clear picture of the project's potential applications. Trainers from the training center gave an expert tour of the welding technology, CNC milling technology, 3D technology and gear technology workshops and offered insights into the possibilities of Industry 4.0.
The online participants owed by Corona were by no means disadvantaged and were able to join the tour digitally and also directly test possible applications of the KoLearn platform KLuQ in practice. Informative videos on the industrial training departments also offered a brief insight into the work of the training center. At the end of the event, the in-house bakery school served sandwiches and nut corners.

We are delighted that the presentation of the project and the subsequent tour attracted so much interest.
