Résumé

The questions of where to work and learn, how and especially with whom represent a theme that involves coworking freelancers, but also employees, students and educators. The main aim of this research is to analyze the emerging link between transformative learning and structured coworking environments. The specific objectives are to identify implicit and explicit strategies of formal and informal learning within new working environments. In addition, we intend to investigate the kind of competences that coworkers acquire in relation to the European Recommendation (2018) and the type of education governance developed in the context of local and global interactions. The research method used encompasses qualitative and quantitative elements. Twenty coworking coordinators are submitted to a semi-structured interview and have compiled a grid on the skills acquired by coworkers. Sampling is intentional: among the different kinds of coworking, only those with educational functions have been selected selected.
