Learn more about the origins and organizational structure of BeLEARN.

Origins of BeLEARN

Five universities have joined forces in the BeLEARN competence centre to jointly drive the digital transformation in education. Under one roof, researchers, start-ups, and educational stakeholders from all levels work across institutional boundaries to develop practical, scientifically grounded solutions to current challenges in education. BeLEARN was initiated by the Canton of Bern and founded in 2021 by five universities as a non-profit association. The supporting universities are the University of Bern, the Bern University of Teacher Education PHBern, the Bern University of Applied Sciences (BFH), the Swiss Federal University for Vocational Education and Training (SFUVET), and EPFL.

 

The BeLEARN Ecosystem

Given the complexity and agility of digital transformation in education, our organisational structure is best described as a dynamic ecosystem.
