Certified VET trainer in the construction sector
Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2016 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

The EU construction industry with increasingly qualified workforce of 14.5 million (EUROSTAT 2009) exemplifies the significance and urgency of moving toward mutual recognition of qualifications. Case studies show that retraining is required for workers to convert to an occupation and to upskilling which enable a person to fulfil an occupation mainly through an add-on of knowledge. Erasmus+ programme encompasses the whole range of learning: formal and informal learning, workplace learning, skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviour that people acquire in day-to-day experiences. Due to fast development of TIDS, there should be put more attention not only to mobility of labour but also to distinction between the formal qualifications that a person possesses, acquired from initial stage of their career and the skills and competencies developed through experience and on-the-job. The measure of TIDS market is rapidly growing the usage of plasterboard per capita in the country (e.g.RO-2,05m,PL-1,90m-data by Saint-Gobain Construction Products). The scope and goals of CertiVET project will try to addresses European priority of ECVET for transparency and recognition of learning outcomes and qualifications. It is focused on trainers in the construction industry who are specialized in technology of interior drywall systems. The main aim is to improve the obtained outcomes from the previous project LdV-TOI realised between 2011/12: Supporting system for nonformal and informal learning for low-skilled workers(2010-1-PL1-LEO05-11472) - SkillSup (www.skillsup.eu). The results of the project will be solutions that make self learning and improving skills easier in the workplace as well as enabling possible self-learning in convenient moment of time and will support the learners when performing vocational tasks. The project will be oriented to achieve the following main goals: - to perform extended studies and researches on training activities for TIDS domain qualifications in the partners countries, with the reuse the results obtained in the previous project - to create an effective set of competence standards for VET trainers in TIDS, based on this research and the cooperation between the experts from the partners countries and on the needs resulted from the labor market, - to elaborate a set of procedures for competence validation, based on solutions related to the ECVET system -to provide a set of software tools able to put in practice the procedures of competence validation and qualification previously created in the frame of the project -to integrate the work results in a consistent model of certification of qualification, that will be evaluated and certified in the partners countries. Necessity of acquiring new skills in the era of globalization and rapid technological changes are causing important shifts in labour markets and vocational education and training. European economies are undergoing substantial transformation. The strategy Europe2020 aims at achieving smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. This growth is intended to be driven by a set of engines: knowledge, innovation, greener and more efficient use of resources, higher employment combined with social and territorial cohesion. Demographic and cultural changes are contributing to the skills shortages therefore the Agenda for New Skills and Jobs aims to promote employment and reintegration into the labour market of workers made redundant through activation, retraining and skills upgrading measures. The training system for the construction industry is a part of the vocational education and training system. Continuing education and nonformal forms of learning and professional improvement prefer learning through practical experience. Many craftsmen and building workers need up-skilling. Existing qualification schemes, accreditation structures and training incentives are not covering competence standards for VET trainers. Moreover in many EU countries there is no legal acts describing the trainer’s competences. That is why the major goal in the partnership is to develop of the competence standard for the VET trainer in the construction sector, in line with the EQF, and focus on upgrading or establishing large-scale qualification and training schemes in order to increase the number of skilled VET trainers of construction sector. It's important to develop partnership between education and training providers, research institutions and cultural actors to support innovation and to increase employability and to make education and training more relevant to the world of work. The consortium consisted of education, industry and VET stakeholders will try to have impact on selected target group to increase the value of innovative solutions for improvement of VET trainers competencies in the construction sector.
