Cities of Learning: Connected

Content

On behalf of the team of Cities and Regions of Learning, in the framework of Erasmus+ KA2 project Connected Cities of Learning, we are glad to invite you to participate in the international training activity Cities of Learning: Connected.
﻿
The initiative introduces two online platforms called Cagliari Metropolitan City of Learning and Ljubljana City of Learning. By using the platforms, young people and learners can easily search through numerous learning programs based on their interests in their cities and get recognition for their non-formal learning achievements through digital badges, while learning providers can make their offer more visible to their target audiences, organise their activities in unique learning pathways and certify achievements and competences with a digital and flexible tool.
﻿
The training course serves as an opportunity for organisations from Cagliari and Ljubljana to learn more about the plaftorm, all its features and how to make the most of it, to examine and analyze the needs of young people in their cities and understand how the platform and badges could benefit them, and also as an opportunity for networking and creating new synergies.
﻿
The training course consists of a number of activities that will be held in Cagliari from the 16th to the 21st of May 2022, organised by Associazione Interculturale Nur and the Metropolitan City of Cagliari.
Within the training course, there will be an open public event (on May 20th) for interested stakeholders, learning providers and other parties, where participants will be able to get acquainted with the project team, the planned activities and the end results, as well as learn more about how some of the local partners from Cagliari are using digital badges in their own work in various learning contexts.
﻿
This project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.

Activities and badges are the core of our platform, and learning to create and edit them will allow your organisation to start making the most of it.
﻿
With this activity, you will be able to reflect on how you and your organisation can benefit from using badges as a tool for recognition of achievements and learning, and think about who you know (other organisations, colleagues and young people in your city) that could also benefit from learning more about Cities and Regions of Learning and that you could share all this information with.
﻿
You will also get together with your peers to create activities for your own City of Learning platform, and you will learn:
How to create an activity on the platform
How to edit a badge and create new ones
How to customize or look for nicer activity cover images and badge images
