Project Co-Lab

The starting point for the project Collaborative laboratories for Europe (Co-Lab) is that employees nowadays need flexible knowledge, skills to collect and synthesize information, and skills to collaborate with fellow workers. In the Co-Lab project a new type of learning environment is created that helps learners to develop these knowledge and skills.

This learning environment brings together in an integrated way facilities for  experimentation, collaboration, and domain modelling. In each of these facilities guidance for learners is available. The Co-Lab project develops demonstrators in the applied areas of water management and climate control (in greenhouses). The resulting open learning architecture provides standards to enable the integration of third party products.
