Hermia participates in five clusters

The Tampere Region Centre of Expertise has been expanded to cover seven fields of expertise for the years 2007-2013.

The centres of expertise receive half of their basic funding from the state and half from cities and municipalities. The main part of their volume is constituted by the projects they launch.

The expertise clusters in the central Tampere Region during the centre of expertise period are:

Intelligent Machines (National coordination)

Ubiquitous Computing (National coordination)

Case elTRIO industry - education cooperation

elTRIO e-learning network in the area of metal industry, mechanical engineering and automation www.eltrio.fi

elTRIO – concept Education organizations Industry STUDENT Networking TRIO-Techonology program pedagocical & IT support Coordination Learning- material databank FMS systems Welding Controll & IT networking Mobile working machine Machine Vision etc.. Development groups

elTRIO

elTRIO is co-operation network of technology industries for educational institutes and authorities for taking care of not wasting time and money by doing same eLearning materials in several institutes. The main idea in elTRIO is that the network tries to find ways to share eLearning materials instead of creating own versions of materials and learning objects which already exist.

elTRIO is looking for European cooperation

elTRIO (www.eltrio.fi) is a national e-learning network for technology industries, metals industry, mechanical engineering, electronics and automation . It is a major national actor that is looking for European cooperation to support the international activities of the technology industries.

We are looking for possibilities for cooperation with similar European networks in the technology industry and an opportunity to benefit from the results of European research and development projects. We are especially interested in projects that design and develop innovative methods, tools and services for simulations and virtual manufacturing, knowledge management, distributed collaboration at work and learning at work, in both mobile and fixed environments .

The changing nature of work (Harold Jarche, Canada)

19th Century – factory Model

20th Century – Clocks & Cubicles

The work environment was relatively simple and best practices for management and communications were developed that still inform many of our current work practices. http://flickr.com/photos/brianhendrix/ The information age emerged and organisations had to deal with complicated environments. The flood of management books is an example that there was no single best practice, only good practices.
