Welcome to WiseLearn
A learning and innovation hub for senior citizens
WiseLearn provides a blended learning environment that combines e-learning courses (via the WiseLearn platform) with on-site interactive sessions that foster the real-life implementation of learned skills, methods and tools. We offer courses on innovation, entrepreneurship and digital skills, collaborative project development, matchmaking between seniors and younger entrepreneurs, skill-sharing workshops, coaching, and networking opportunities. We support learners to build teams and develop real-life projects that have a social and/or economic impact (e.g., volunteering project, coaching business).
People in the second half of life possess a wealth of experience and world knowledge. Our blended program fosters a dual societal impact by supporting seniors to continue to make an impact, while enabling society to benefit from their wealth of experience and know-how.
Our program is:
- Based on scientific research at the University of Zurich
- Co-developed with senior citizens
- Impact-oriented
