Informal learning in the customs sector – an opportunity for your Unternehmen❗️

Did you know that over 70% of our learning processes take place outside of organised training? That’s right, in our daily work environment, in our free time, in dialogue with colleagues and friends. These informal learning processes are often unintentional and spontaneous, but nevertheless extremely valuable. In our latest newsletter, we would like to emphasise the importance of informal learning in the customs sector and show you how you can specifically promote it in your company.

⏺️ This is why informal learning is so important in the customs sector:

Informal learning, as we experience it in the customs sector, refers to the natural acquisition of specialised knowledge during daily work. It happens without previously defined learning objectives or learning objective checks. We all know those situations where a colleague helps us to master a new task or gives us information on legal changes. But in the customs sector in particular, it is crucial to manage informal learning.

⏺️ The risks of uncontrolled informal learning:

Uncontrolled informal learning can lead to risks in the customs sector. Passing on half-knowledge can lead to misinterpretations and incorrect actions. The famous statements “We’ve always done it this way” or “I took it from colleague xy” are tricky in customs law. Caution: Unknowingly, you may be entering a legal grey area or may already be beyond it.

✅ O ur solution:

Management tutorials on customs law changes. We make sure that your company benefits from the advantages of informal learning without losing control. That’s why we’ve developed management tutorials on customs changes and important updates. These tutorials not only provide you with basic information on current topics, but also a clear structure to deepen your knowledge when needed.

✅ An example:

Our management tutorial on CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism). Even if you are not currently affected, you will receive basic information on this topic. You will be able to assess the relevance for your company. Only when the relevant issue is imminent will you deepen your knowledge and carry out a “DeepDive” if necessary. This type of informal learning, known in learning psychology as “deliberative learning”, enables you to react flexibly to the requirements of the customs sector.

👆🏼Fakt is: Informal learning in the customs sector is not only a necessity, but also an opportunity for your company. Our aim is to provide you and your team with the best possible support for the challenges in the customs sector. That is why we are establishing management tutorials as an integral part of our Kursprogramm❗️ programme.
