WP4 – Development of Sustainable Vocational Training Program and Network
The nuclear VET learning community (now called NUCLEATION) is working and convening regularly, the number of members is growing steadily.
The European Learning Model (ELM) was partially applied for the VET course data, providing the basis for a future interface or connection to other important European E&T as well as VET applications.
The ENEN HUB has been implemented and can be accessed on the Internet. The VET data compiled in T4.1 were further developed to allow for its import into the HUB.
The T4.3 kick-off meeting was conducted, all T4.3 partners were introduced to the required activities.
An action was launched addressing all ENEN2plus partners to allow for the completion of the VET data through information on further courses for critical jobs. The VET database was partially updated. A quantitative analysis of VET offer was carried out to fine tune the data from task 4.1 and to ease the selection of VET cases for demonstration.
A job code analysis was performed, and the used taxonomy was unified with the one of the EHRO- N.
WP5 – Mobility schemes for nuclear talents
The results are within expectations. The individual grants dispersed in the 15 two-month batches (16th currently in evaluation) have depleted the available funds and have been recently discontinued.
The remaining budget of about 400.000 € (of 2.500.000€) is devoted mostly to the events to be organized by the ENEN# project, and, to support about 10 more events organized by other nuclear stakeholders in EU.
The second (and last) Revision of the mobility manual, incorporating lessons learned during the first two years of the operation of the mobility scheme has been developed and published.
The link with the OFFERR project is established. The evaluation and selection processes of both projects differ substantially, which probably makes simultaneous applications at both projects challenging for applicants and organizers.
The mobility support obtained from ENEN and the infrastructure access support from OFFERR are considered advantages in both evaluation processes.
