Objective
Fire engineering is a discipline which brings together professional engineers from a variety of academic backgrounds. The increasing use of high technology and the complexity of modern building design increases the importance of a common language and level of understanding between the various parties concerned.
The aim of this project is to design a common vocationally-based syllabus, encompassing all of the various academic disciplines, which will be acceptable to the member states of the European Union. The project will in the initial stage be carried out through a series of meetings, one at a centre in each of the countries represented, to agree a common syllabus for study. This will be "culturalised" and translated into the appropriate language to form the basis of a common and recognised system of study applicable to all within the discipline. The second phase will involve a pilot scheme to test the designed product prior to publication and use throughout the member states.
Impact
The expected impact is that the pilot will provide a common and agreed curriculum and qualification which will constitute a platform for a standard of vocational training and education which is common through Europe but takes account of cultural differences in the member states.
