Skills can become out of date, and the one who has competence is the one who is able to keep up with the times. The European Social Fund (ESF) is the European Union’s most important instrument for creating more and better job opportunities in Europe. The financer of this project was ESF.
It’s about
small businesses.
Small businesses in Sweden
with up to 9 employees
make up 96 % of all businesses in the country,
stand for 25 % of the productivity value of business and industry
and approximately 20 % of total turnover and number of employees in business and industry.
Over the last 20 years, 4 out of every 5 jobs have been created in small businesses.
The equation that small businesses just can’t manage to think about.
Professional skills + = competitiveness
Our task is to teach
small companies about learning.
Gain skills, improve your level of competence
on your terms
just in time
and with new technology as a support.
The Dala Model works.
”Competence on demand”.
Learning takes place when it is needed. It does not interrupt the organization. A mix of physical meetings and digital solutions. Learning becomes fun. You own your learning process. This is Next Generation Learning!

Important factors for successful growth and development are
equality, accessibility and
exchange that transcends national borders.
Increased equality is an important factor for success.

Traditionally, “businesses” are gender-coded as male and “education” as female. This may explain the gender distribution in Dalalyft that could be seen in both these areas.
