BREAKING: The much-anticipated expansion of the Learning Essentials program was officially announced today by Leader Kahn in the Green Center’s daily news feed.
KAHN: “It has been 7 years since we opened the first Local Learning Center, right here in Helsinki. We wanted to shift the focus from teaching traditional subjects to supporting our youth to develop their general cognitive capacity and cultivate community-centric behaviors. Today, we have over 1,000 Local Learning Centers across the Finland BetaZone, and the results have exceeded the best-case modeling from Central Data. Analysis shows that, when compared to global benchmarks, the Learners have substantially higher neural activity, elevated general skill proficiency, and healthier biomarker measurements.”
Leader Kahn also released Central Data analysis to support the announcement. Findings included:
- Intelligent customization of individual learning programs has dramatically reduced the number of contact hours required for Learners to level-up on skills and insights;
- Learners spend an average of 20 hours per week in pursuit of the arts, conservationism and community engagement;
- Employment for those with a level-up is higher than traditional norms, and criminal activity amongst Learners is close to zero.
KAHN: “The results of this program have been transformational for the Finnish community, and that’s why, today, we are announcing a roll-out of the program to all 123 Essential Countries. All members will have access to an individual learning program through their EssentialAI device. However, places for attendance at Local Learning Centers will be limited at first, and applications will be required for admittance. A list of scheduled center launches will be available in your Central Data.”
