RenewedSkills: Recognition of competences in the renewable energy sector in the EU

The main goal of the project has been to adapt a methodology for the recognition of competences acquired by low/medium qualified workers (EQF levels 1 to 4) through non-formal/informal learning in the training strategies of the EU renewable energy sector, taking as a main reference the methodologies and outcomes from a previous project (Metal Skills, ES/07/LLP-LdV/TOI/149025). This has been achieved through an exchange of experiences among social partners, VET centres, companies and public administrations.Countries: Germany, France, Spain, Poland and Italy, which are relevant countries for the development of the renewable energy industry in the EU, currently leading the sector or with the highest potential of future growth. The consortium has been composed of VET centres (IFES, bfw), social partners (FITAG-UGT), research centres (CERES), technological provider (Qbit) and consultants (MPS, Procesy). Indirect collaborators are Public Administrations (INCUAL), Univ. of Barcelona (UAB-CIFO). Main results: national/international reports about the socio-labour situation in the renewable energy sector in Europe, the professional profile of the workers of this sector, paying special attention to low/medium qualified (EQF levels 1 to 4), the best practices for recognition, evaluation and accreditation of non-formal/informal learning in the energy companies; design of an online training action, addressed to training officers, to incorporate the methodology for recognition in the training strategy of the energy sector; design of a guide for the recognition of non-formal and informal learning in the sector. Impact: increase in qualification level of the workers in this sector; opportunities for reconversion for workers from the traditional energy sector into the renewable energy subsector; increase of mobility; more transparency of professional qualifications and the labour market.
