Objective
In large companies, inherent operational reasons restrict the ability and potential capacity of employees to consistently follow vocational training courses. In large power industries, completion of the Single European Market is giving rise to new qualification needs. Training in languages, management and quality procedures are in major demand. Their provision will promote internal staff mobility and reduce the threat of unemployment.
This project will design a quality procedure, using new technologies, for a sustainable vocational training environment. The main project work will involve an end user organisation (the Greek Public Power Company), a content provider organisation (Linguaphone Hellas SA) and a technology provider (Systema Informatics). Additional activities relating to the dissemination and exploitation of the results, and to end-product assessment and business networking, will be dealt with by the rest of the international partnership. The end product will be an educational package containing autonomous computer-based training modules. This will enable flexible access and the training system will be usable in diverse vocational disciplines. The added value will lie in the use of 'virtual reality' techniques and the production of a combined course on foreign language learning and quality management procedures.
Impact
This project will support the potential mobility of electricity sector employees, both within their own company and across the industry.
