How to use the Toolkit

The toolkit is divided into two parts, a reference part and a practical part (see Guide).

The reference part consists of structured overviews of the experience and processes of eWork and regional development, as well as the main research trends, including evidence from EMERGENCE. These pages can be accessed for summary explanations of the main issues involved.

The practical part consists of a structured guide to preparing and implementing a regional development strategy based upon eWork. This is designed to provide a step-by-step demonstration of how regional decision makers can design and put into practice a strategy aimed at developing employment in the region based on eWork. Such a strategy can be strengthened by the development of a regional statistical profile based upon existing statistical data, plus evidence collected by EMERGENCE. Links to the reference part are provided so that users can access explanations where they need these without disrupting the flow of the guide.

The practical part also explains how to find out what others have done through the relocation of eWork, provides a guide to funding sources, and links to a glossary of the main terms used in the toolkit.
