At most L&D events you get slides. Here you get peers.
In one afternoon you'll hear directly from L&D teams at Royal SMIT and other organizations: how they captured decades of expertise before it walked out the door, how they got people learning in the flow of work, and what it concretely delivered. Organized by FLOWSPARKS. For everyone in L&D - whether you use FLOWSPARKS or not.

🎤 How Royal SMIT captured 110 years of expertise before it walked out the door with Jeanine Habraken, Christine Blok, Ruben Ottens and Abe Ten Brinck from Royal SMIT
How do you build an L&D organization in a technical environment where knowledge is largely implicit and spread across experienced employees?
In this session, we demonstrate how FLOWSPARKS plays a central role at Royal Smit Transformers in structuring, capturing, and making accessible more than 110 years of expertise. We will walk you through our approach, from establishing a solid learning foundation to developing concrete learning solutions.
We then take a closer look at our operations training curriculum. Here, technicians work purposefully on essential skills through a combination of online learning, hands-on practice, and assessment. Everything is integrated into a structured program within FLOWSPARKS, where learning and working come together, enabling technicians to develop into skilled professionals in practice.
🎤 Self-directed learning: how do you make it a reality in your organization? with Mieke Blatter and Olaf Donders
In this interactive session, we will inspire each other on the importance of self-directed learning, often referred to as on-demand learning. Learning where, when, and how it suits the learner is gaining increasing attention within organizations.
Through statements and direct interaction, you will engage with common challenges related to on-demand learning. Olaf and Mieke will share insights, experiences, and examples of self-directed learning. By exchanging both experiences and reflections, you will discover how valuable it is to learn from one another.
After the session, you will receive a SMARTMAGAZINE with the key insights, ideas, and tips that emerged during the session. An open and interactive session for anyone interested in exploring how to facilitate learning in the daily flow of work. Relatable and inspiring.
🎤 Crisis Management Training: How do you maintain critical knowledge for rare emergency situations? with Menno Jansen from COT Institute for Safety and Crisis Management
Menno shares his experience in training for crisis management. How do you teach people to handle situations that rarely occur? And which tools do you use to achieve that? He demonstrates how a crisis game developed by COT/Berenschot in FLOWSPARKS supports this, and why blended learning is essential to keep knowledge readily available, especially when participants have limited time. His session is both insightful and interactive. You may discover that there’s a crisis manager in you. Or not. And that insight is just as valuable, because it’s better to find out before it truly matters. The question is: how do you find out?
