Together with the Schaeffler Group, we at i40 - the future skills company are delighted that our joint learning solution for digital transformation "Hollywood for employees worldwide: "Go Digital - Our Digital Story at Schaeffler": Meaning & facets of digitalization as a company-wide peer-to-peer video series" has won the prestigious eLearning Award 2024 in the "Video" category.

As a motion technology company, the Schaeffler Group makes a decisive contribution with precision components and systems in engines, transmissions and chassis as well as rolling and plain bearing solutions for a large number of industrial applications. Digital solutions play an increasingly important role at Schaeffler in order to remain a leader in the future against the backdrop of the digital transformation and the transition to electric mobility. Experience shows that employees play a central role in digitalization: "Digital transformation is 10 percent technology and 90 percent people.".

"It was a conscious decision to really put employees at the center of the digital transformation as the protagonists in this global video series. As a qualification program for the strategic anchoring of digitalization, GO DIGITAL should not only convey learning content, but also achieve a high level of acceptance among all employees worldwide. In addition, it was important to create innovative motivational moments in order to transport the learning content through the company at the right speed. Set in the right didactic framework, the company's own employees have a significant leap of faith with learners, which not only conveys digitalization but also makes it an authentic experience. The result is a video learning series by employees for employees - worldwide and across the group. What inspired us during the implementation was the joy of the Schaeffler employees and managers in telling their digital story - and this enthusiasm is of course contagious - which couldn't be better for a learning series and is also reflected in the number of users of the learning series." Dr Philipp V. Ramin, CEO, i40.de - the future skills company

"An important pedagogical element in the GO DIGITAL video learning series is humor. We have incorporated it in the form of our fictitious pair of auditory learning guides. Together, they go on the Go Digital journey with the learners, act as moderators and even interact with real employees." Sophia Obermeier, Digital Competence Consultant and Project Manager, GO DIGITAL video series, i40 - the future skills company

"One of the challenges of the Go Digital project was to transform Schaeffler employees from various locations around the world into approachable and authentic storytellers. Success factors include a customized camera setup and a relaxed interview atmosphere" Benedikt Dirscherl, Head of Content and COO, i40 - the future skills company

"If you want to organize training for all employees, it is important that all regions, divisions and functions of Schaeffler are represented worldwide in order to remain authentic. That's why we really paid attention to this and had participants and protagonists from all regions and divisions worldwide for the video-based WBT Go Digital." Kim Höra, Digitalization Strategy Professional & Project Manager Go Digital, Schaeffler

"Go Digital is a masterclass on digitalization by Schaeffler experts for Schaeffler employees worldwide." Jessica Holzer, Learning Professional, Schaeffler Academy

We are delighted to be honored with the eLearning Award 2024 in the Video category by Siepmann Media's eLearning Journal.
