A well educated and trained workforce provides for

reliable and economical operation. Qualified and

motivated personnel safeguard the availability and

economic efficiency of your plants in the long term.

The LOESCHE Training Center uses the princi-

ple of ‚integrated learning‘ (blended learning con-

cept) with the aid of the latest learning methods

and media. LOESCHE combines computer based

training courses and live online seminars with

traditional attending teaching in order to consolidate

the knowledge so imparted in the best manner pos-

sible and with lasting effect.

It is worth to invest in training

A young, innovative team of editors, online train-

ers, eLearning authors and technical trainers drafts

and creates classroom training, eLearning courses,

webinars, documents and manuals in accordance

with the latest media-didactic principles, tailored to

the needs and requirements of the learners.

The Training Center develops knowledge manage-

ment strategies and tools - working closely with

Human Resource and technical departments at

LOESCHE.

The team is also in charge for terminology and

translation activities within the LOESCHE group.

In general, blended learning means combining

different teaching methods, techniques and

resources and applying them in an interactively

meaningful environment to create an optimum

training program for a specific audience. A blended

learning approach combines the social aspects of

face-to-face training with computer-mediated in-

struction (digital training).

The combination of attended teaching and digital

training has already successfully established itself

in the advanced vocational training of LOESCHE

personnel and is also used for customer training.

Blended Learning Concept

Page 8

In the framework of blended learning, the LOESCHE

Training Center relies on two main pillars of education,

which are combined with each other: the well-estab-

lished face-to-face training (for example in a classroom

or in the course of a seminar) and digital training (in

form of eLearning courses or webinars).

Continuous expansion of the training package - in terms

of content and teaching methods - will ensure that the

customers receive targeted advanced vocational training.

To consider the importance of social processes, when

it comes to learning, LOESCHE also implemented a

webinar platform.

LOESCHE offers basically two different ways of digital training - the asynchro-

nous eLearning and the live (synchronous) online training in a virtual class-

room (webinars). eLearning offers complete self-determination for each learn-

er, online control of the learning status for both the learner and the trainer, and

standardised learning contents with continuous evaluation. Since eLearning is

not tied to a specific time and place, it offers greatest possible flexibility for the

learner and reduces travel costs for all training participants.

Additionally, LOESCHE integrated virtual classrooms (webinars) in the train-

ing portfolio to meet the social requirements of learners. Participants of these

online seminars can discuss problems and come up with solutions together.

Therefore, webinars combine the advantages of both, face-to-face training

and eLearning.

Face-to-face training is the most established ‘classical’ training meth-

od. Following this approach, LOESCHE offers training on the job

(practical instructions), classroom training and technical seminars.

Engineers with long-term experience at LOESCHE are tasked with

the training in vertical roller mill technology, as well as with the train-

ing of experienced process engineers and maintenance personnel.

In the course of practical instructions and classroom training the

participants are taught the basics and background knowledge

pertaining to LOESCHE technology. Optimum learning effect is

achieved thanks to a limited number of participants and active

integration of the learners. Regular intermediate tests show the level

of the learning progress.

In addition to practical and classroom training, LOESCHE offers

technical seminars. These social events enable networking and

interaction between specialists from different plants or industrial

sectors. These seminars are presented courses on subjects with

practical relevance. In the course of these events a platform is

offered on which knowledge can be imparted, information and

ideas exchanged, and joint strategies developed. Participants of

these seminars can discuss problems and come up with solutions

together. Learning from one another is the central focus here.

All lecturers or presenters are well versed in LOESCHE technology,

LOESCHE products and worldwide applications. Therefore, they are

able to impart first-hand knowledge.

LOESCHE’s entire training portfolio is aimed at manage-

ment-level employees, process and plant engineers, and

maintenance / upkeep personnel. Every learning content

is adapted to the level of knowledge of the respective

target group.

The objective is to train your employees on a requirements-

oriented basis in order to ensure optimum plant availability.

When it comes to face-to-face training, LOESCHE offers different possibilities for

customised training measures.

• On a nation-wide scale, a ‘local training’ is organised at a chosen plant site

and the customer invites employees from his nearby plants to join the training.

• ‘Regional training’ focuses on training participants of one customer

coming from different countries. In this way, the customer offers his employees

the possibility to share their knowledge and experiences on an international

basis.

• Finally, in the course of a ‘global training’ LOESCHE welcomes worldwide

employees of one customer to a centralised training location, normally based

at the LOESCHE headquarters in Germany or at one of the LOESCHE

subsidiaries.

Training locations

Page 15

Due to the different training methods and courses, the learn-

ing environment differs for the training participants.

During a webinar the LOESCHE trainer is normally located

at the LOESCHE headquarters and presents his training

contents to the participants spread all over the world. This

saves travel costs, reduces travel time and protects the en-

vironment.

To take part in an online training, the only pre-requisites are

a computer, a stable internet connection and a headset.

A personalised login name and a password ensures data

integrity and security.

The LOESCHE Training Center team supervises all online

participants throughout the entire training measure.
