Skills and Competences in a city and region of learning.

Session outline: As we saw in the last session a learning city and region needs to have certain infrastructural attractions for inward investment. This last session from chapter 1 explores the personal human skills and competencies that people will need in a learning city a) to make themselves employable and b) to lead a full and rounded life, able to make a contribution to society. Through a series of assignments, it feeds off the opinions, experience and ideas of the learners and guides them to make an assessment not just of the skills and competencies but also of how they may be developed.
