ESTABLISHING FUTURE-ORIENTED TRAINING AND QUALIFICATION QUALITY STANDARDS FOR FOSTERING A BROAD UPTAKE OF SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SKILLS IN THE EUROPEAN CONSTRUCTION SECTOR

Project description

Building a European Skills Registry for the construction sector

The dynamic environment and evolving demands of construction require the constant training and upskilling of relevant staff and labourers. The EU-funded TRAIN4SUSTAIN project will establish future-oriented training and qualification quality standards. The aim is to foster a broad uptake of sustainable energy skills in the European construction sector. The project will also address the issue of mutual recognition as a way to ensure that training accredited in one country is recognised easier in another country. Overall, it will build on the newly developed EU framework for energy and resource efficient buildings, as well as on European frameworks to expand energy skill qualifications across borders. To this end, it will promote a competence quality standard, a European Skills Registry and a Skills Passport.
