How organisational learning needs to change to meet today's challengesInfor CERTPOINT
How Speed and Technology Change Everything.
In the recent past, training was a process almost disconnected from the daily operations of the rest of the organisation. Sometimes this gap was literal - training was often confined to a separate building.
At the same time, however, training's value was seldom questioned. It was understood to have a positive, if usually unmeasured, effect. The role of training was 'building capability' - giving employees 'just-in-case' knowledge and skills for use at some point in the future
In this Article CERTPOINT CEO Ara Ohanian outlines three key ways L&D departments must change to stay relevant.
The document outlines several key challenges affecting design education. Internally, design programs in the UK face increasing student-teacher ratios that hamper creativity, restrictive international student policies, and rising tuition fees.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

3. Technological changes with increased export opportunities always drive a flourishing economy.
4. Who is creating those new technologies? Manufacturers From the precision machining of components for medical devices to building energy-efficient power, transport and communication infrastructures, manufacturing technology allows modern society to function.
5. The quality and availability of skilled production workers, scientists, researchers, engineers and teachers is THE most significant driver of manufacturing competitiveness.
6. BUT… Europe needs new skilled workers in “agri-culture, craft, trade and machine operators”, by 2020. 16 million
7. In the next 5 years, BOEING will lose40% of its workers due to retirement. That is 60,000 employees.
9. China has to close down production lines because of a critical shortage of skilled workforce for their factories.
10. Top 10 most sought-after workers Europe 2010 Incl. electricians, plumbers, welders, machining specialists etc Skilled Trades Sales Representatives Production/Operations Technicians Drivers Accounting & Finance Staff Engineers Chefs/Cooks Secretaries, Pas, Administrative Staff IT Staff Doctors & other Non-Nursing Health Professionals new skilled workers in “agri-culture, craft, trade and machine operators”, by 2020.
11. ...When the exact opposite trend is required... “ONLY INTELLIGENT TECHNOLOGY CAN POSTPONE OR PREVENT THE WIPE OUT OF THE HUMAN RACE”
12. But… THIS is the image people still have about manufacturing… … perceived as a dirty, boring, uninteresting, unpleasant, repetitive career path.
13. Good and bad in modern manufacturing companies 66% middle-aged employees report that they come home from work too tired to take care of their household chores at least several times a month. Insufficient career progression and promotion programs in the manufacturing industry. Less autonomy and fewer flexible work opportunities compared to other sectors (e.g. work off-site, part-year, reduced hours).----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Use of robots, computers, programmable motion control and sensing technologies transforms manufacturing from traditional assembly to “lean” manufacturing (e.g. teams producing entire products or components). More and more employees can enjoy creative work. The days of the repetitious low-skilled, single tasks will soon be over. Especially younger workers get more freedom in deciding how to perform their work and more often they are included in decision-making activities. Manufacturing workers get paid 23% more than the rest of the workforce.
14. So manufacturing companies have a lot of work to do. Part of the solution is also education: Recruiting specialists express concerns in: http://www.bc.edu/research/agingandwork/meta-elements/pdf/publications/TMISR01_Manufacturing.pdf

Editor's Notes
Our economy is driven by an export-led private sector. Flourishing markets are always guided by technological changes.
But to create those new technologies and to survive as a company, they depend for a very large part on the highly skilled employees!
But there is a high shortage of workers for the manufacturing sector…
…The younger generation is not there to take over. It is especially difficult, they say, to find people for machining positions.
Already 51% of the American manufacturing companies reports serious shortages today in machinists, operators, craft workers, distributors and technicians.
Even China has to close down production lines as they, as well, experience a critical skilled workforce shortage for their factories. So it is a global problem. A problem that we can overcome with education that leads the world.
In Europe things don’t look super either:Skilled trades are the most difficult positions to fill for the fourth year in a row
So manufacturing companies have a lot of work to do.
Using robots and Haas machines
He says differentiation, compelling classroom materials and technology lead to engagement, attractiveness for the students, which leads to high performance.Differentiation means differentiation in assignments, differentiation in instruction – This is indeed crucial, but that is not something we can help you with. So we have adopted Bill Gates’ model slightly :
You see the same model, but with one element added that is crucial for manufacturing: the importance of the learning environment to engage and attract students.An important factor to improve student achievement is to create better learning environments. International research has concluded that 5% to 8% of the scores depends on the modern look and comfortable feeling in the classroom!
We helped this school in Belgiumto create a bright, clean, attractive learning environment, which is...
and
This is an impressive poster about our collaboration with NASA. This posters is 3 meter wide, printed on durable vinyl.
We offer this poster as well, showing the different pieces of the Haas machines. We believe this is interesting teaching material.
USB sticks for your best students or one of our Haas rolex watches.
To show you some more pictures of existing HTECs:
You see the same style is always coming back: grey floors, white walls, bright, clean, inviting and motivating for students and teachers.
The learning environment is one element of the HTEC program to make the necessary good first impression on students and their parents. That will help you a lot to attract more students. A second element is probably a lot more important: the technology! Haas has got an enormous network of partners, and together we can bring all essential CNC technologies inside your school at very high discounts.
Existing HTECs say to us that Haas brings real support to schools. With real-industry equipment at high discounts. Not only do we bring Haas machines, we bring all other things you could need.With a CNC machine, you can’t do anything, you need Sandvik Coromant cutting tools, you need software (keller, esprit, mastercam), you need workholding to fix your piece (schunk, chick, Hainbuch, you will need coolant (for example Blaser or Cimcool). We can bring all necessary technologies for modern manufacturing to your school
Let’s first say a few words about Haas Automation. This is the front of our 100,000 m² factory in Oxnard, California, USA.
We are probably the only company in the machine tool industry that is able to combine low price AND speed service AND high quality. Our main competitors focus on quality and service, but offer that at a very high price. Our Asian competitors on the other hand have good quality and sharp price, but don’t have the structure in place to help you very quickly when there is a problem with your machine. For example: let’s assume your spindle is broken – call an Asian supplier and he will tell you that it takes 6-9 weeks. Call us and we will fix it it if not in 6-9 hours for sure within 24 hours.Why is our pricing so low? Because we robotized our factory almost completely. That means we don’t have huge personnel labor costs and will not include that in the machine price. Second, because we don’t take enormous sales margins. We keep the price as low as possible to benefit you as a customer. We are also the only company openly publishing its prices on the internet. Nobody else is doing that! If a competitor says you will receive 40-50% discount, you are not sure if that is actually true, because you don’t know the base price of the machine. With us it is crystal clear what you get, with us it is honest.For the service: 98,56% of the problems with Haas machines is fixed within 24 hours – We can achieve that with the use of local service vans that on average contain 60% of the common parts. That means when you call us, we fix it immediately on the first visit. We don’t come to you to see what the problem is, than return to the office again to get the materials and equipment and than come back to you. We don’t lose our time, we don’t lose your time and throw away your money.And we also focus on quality: number 1 is user-friendliness, the machine should be easy to use, easy to teach, easy to learn. Studies have shown that the Haas machines are the most user-friendly machine tools in the industry. SPECIAL this year are completely new, redesigned and improved 2010 Haas machines. Let us show you a few:
A very interesting feature for schools us our Haas control simulator:
As I already have said: with a CNC machine, you can’t do anything, you need tools, you need software, you need workholding to fix your piece,you will need coolant and so on. We have negotiated for months with the biggest names in the industry, to fix very high discount for the schools that step into the HTEC program. These prices and conditions are for HTECs ONLY. Regular schools will have it very difficult to get those technologies at the same conditions as HTECsNote: all details can be found in the HTEC manual
One normal Esprit license costs 30,000 euros – HTECs get it for free!
So again: 3 elements in the HTEC program: learning environment, technology and last but not least: teaching materials. We will give you permanent support and all possible teaching materials for direct use in the classroom, to help youusing the technologies in your lessons, and teach the students on the essential principles of CAM, workholding, cutting tools and coolant – otherwise the technology might end up on a shelf, gathering dust, because you don’t have time to figure out everything yourself – and of course that is not the goal. All HTEC partners are offering proven support materials. Mastercam for example even offers complete lesson packages
Mastercam for example can offer complete lesson packages with student books and instructor guides.
Coromant for example offers a free Metal cutting technology course for the schools that step into the HTEC network, with a lot of illustrations, pictures and exercises on many essential topics.
Or to show it visually: To make a difference in your community, we can support you with the HTEC program in internal quality, pupil recruitment and community communication.
