Tittel

Changing competence requirements in public services: Consequences of digitization in general and highly specialized work (CORPUS)

Populærvitenskapelig sammendrag

It is commonly argued that the intensified use of digital technologies generate changes in work practices. Such changes relate to ways of accessing information and coordinating work, ways of working with clients, and ways of performing human judgement. However, there is a lack of knowledge about how these developments play out in specific work settings and what the changes imply for workers’ opportunities to engage, learn and stay included in professional communities over time. The CORPUS project will generate new knowledge on skills requirements and learning in the public health services, by conducting close-up studies on how digitization generates changes in work organization and task distribution, what competences are needed to cope with and resolve these challenges, and what learning opportunities are afforded in everyday work.

CORPUS examines work and learning in settings where new technologies for service coordination and delivery are recently designed, implemented or reinvented for specific use. As such, the project highlights two digitization trends: The ‘datafication trend’ which relates to big data science and automation, and the ‘platform trend’, which relates to new forms of work coordination and distribution in digital platforms.

Vitenskapelig sammendrag

The CORPUS project will generate new knowledge about how work-related skills and competencies are transformed in specific ways as a consequence of digitization processes in the public health services.

Secondary objectives are to

a) Develop in-depth knowledge about how digitization in the public health services bring about new competence requirements and learning needs among employees;

b) Develop knowledge about how individuals and work communities respond to these opportunities and demands;

c) Generate a better understanding of the mechanisms that enhance orhinder continuous learning at work for different groups of employees, and

d) Based on this research, develop a user-oriented model intended to assist work organisations in mapping emerging competences and organising work-based learning opportunities for an inclusive and sustainable working life.

Metode

CORPUS comprises researchers with expertise in the learning sciences,organisational sociology and informatics. The research work is organized as a set of case studies in which work practices and learning are studied by a) examining the 'information ecologies' that make up the work environments, and b) investigating how different groups of employees get access to information, engage in learning-on-the-job, and take advantage of opportunities for future-oriented development. CORPUS collaborates closely with users and stakeholders. The project includes collaboration and comparisons to other Nordic contexts.
