Vocational training for ceramic tile fixers in Europe

Objective

OBJECTIVES
During the last few years, the residential construction sector has been particularly affected by the economic crisis. The renovation and public buildings construction sector, however, has been constantly growing. The market for floor cover products (tiling) which has followed the expansion of both these sectors, has not been subject to increased demand, but rather to a considerable increase in the quality of the products used. It is therefore becoming increasingly difficult to find tilers who are able to lay material with increasingly sophisticated features. The project wishes to set up continuing training modules for tilers, to produce multimedia educational tools making self-training easier, but also to improve the training systems of the partner countries and to adapt the results of methods and concepts to other training sectors (construction sector, for example).

ACTIVITIES
The methods, results and training products will be based on the logic already applied in the FORCE programme. They will be adapted in order to be transferred within training systems of the project's partner countries. They will be strengthened by initial training modules and methods in keeping with the worker's training logic throughout his or her working life.

PRODUCTS
- Teaching aids: manuals, video, CD-ROM on tiling methods and techniques.
- A training plan.
- A personal card for certifying the training.
