Traditionally learning has happened in the form of settings that we recognize from classroom trainings and formal setups. Our way of learning is also transforming, and we are now looking for information and knowledge in completely new ways. Learning takes place more and more continuously and as an integral part of the daily work. The overarching mission for the group Learning Expertise is to facilitate that transition at Scania through the aspects of structural and cultural assignments.
