20. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 20 Expert resources Database iDRM Network List of all activities in HRD

21. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 21 Who will use it? The visitors: all information not protected The subscribers: with restricted access codes (for defined intranet areas) for reading and downloading The authors: with access codes for the areas they are allowed to publish – guide and mentor courses

22. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 22 The public platform is used by result users and project coordinators  To get information about services, upcoming trainings and workshops with detailed information  E-learning  To have access to information about best practises, reports and material from past training events  To announce and to apply for training courses  To inform about concepts, approaches and capacity building initiatives.  To give feedback and evaluate Public space iDRM Network

23. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 23 The intranet for project coordinators, training management and selected stakeholders (trainers)  To coordinate their training activities and contents.  To document all material, reports, evaluations and tools  To provide restricted access to reports, participants lists and background information  To develop services and HRD events  To plan projects  To administer addresses and contacts Intranet iDRM Network

24. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 24 What is an internet based HRDP management platform? The platform is a system for de-centralized content maintenance and processing – an important tool for networking stakeholders Authors and editors produce directly the content (texts, pictures, links) and their structure – and not IT professionals The contents is directly published in public- or closed areas There is a system of access protection that can be adapted very specifically with different level passwords The platform operates on the basis of predefined templates / objects for each type of input (text, links, galleries, pictures, tables, data bases etc.) and the possibilities of extending them The templates are defined by workflow definition according to the requirements of the platform

25. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 25 Audience centric approach  Our challenge is: How can the audience/public/targeted groups find and order best fitting trainings quickly?  The Web is a place driven by your audience’s requirements (like identify suitable training offers, easy application for courses)  We want to support the audience to more easily and efficiently fulfill/perform their tasks. Therefore we use tailor made and up-to- date content and standardized technology.  Managing the content requires a deep understanding of the activities that were to be performed by your audience: -> This is an Activity-Centred Platform Design Approach means to focus on the audiences tasks = task centred

26. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 26 What is needed for Authoring? Editor Author - Content Manager Target audience

28. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 28 The need of defined internal workflows – to make the cooperation a success  Workflows for cooperation have to be defined  Clear mandates are needed for authoring, editing, publishing and follow up of applications/registrations, queries, and contents production  The tasks can be centralised (simple) of decentralised (more complicated)

29. 9 March 2010 | | Slide: 29 How can we build up the HRD- iDRM Management Platform? Moderator (teaching staff) Manager Audience/ target groups Section author Centralized activities on the platform Chief Editor & Webmaster Phase I: Centralisation during content setup phase (approx. 6 months) send
