From 12 to 14 May, the EXPERTISE team presented our skill measurement tool and the learning and teaching materials designed for silver workers in purchasing and supply management (PSM) at the University of Twente. Participants registered on Moodle and actively utilized the tool, sharing insights during open discussions and evaluations, especially around recommended training materials.
In detail: The Lehrstuhl für Unternehmenslogistik (LFO) of Technische Universität Dortmund presented the first training material focused on Silver Workers, incorporating gamification elements to enhance learning. Participant feedback was collected via Qualtrics for future improvements.
We also explored digitalization in PSM of EL-IPS, showcasing interactive training materials that discussed various technologies in strategic sourcing and operative procurement.
The Bratislava University of Economics and Business (EUBA) introduced a Data Analytics unit where participants filtered datasets to answer specific questions and engaged in an interactive Oracle task, which was evaluated as well.
In our final session of LUT University, we addressed global trends impacting competency requirements in PSM, particularly regarding risk management and financial instabilities. A concluding discussion highlighted further trends shaping the field.
Thank you to all participants for your valuable contributions!
