Objectif Environmental protection is a concern for both enterprises and the authorities. A major effort has been made to encourage the development of environmental geotechnics, yet there are few specialists with the skills and know-how required to practice this profession. This pilot project aims to define a new training path and to define new occupational figures with the necessary technical and scientific skills.GEOTEC will begin with a preliminary study highlighting technological development - on a European scale - in the geotechnic sector and similar development in universities and training organisations. The next step will be to create the models required to train future environmental geo-technicians. A series of practical assignments alongside a number of case studies will complete their training. Finally, a CD-ROM with simulations of concrete cases will help perfect and update what the trainees have learnt.Results will be distributed via advertising brochures sent to public organisations and enterprises, and via a global project report available on the Internet.ImpactThis pilot project will contribute to increasing the professionalism of those involved in environmental protection.Contract number : I/97/2/00258/PI/II.1.1.c/FPCDomaine : Continuing vocational trainingContents : Vocational qualifications Training in environmental protection Forecasting training needsProducts : Evaluation tools Description of new occupational profiles Semi-autonomous/ flexible training Public : Training experts Planners Young workers Programme(s) ET-LEONARDO DA VINCI 1 - Action programme for the implementation of a European Community vocational training policy Leonardo da Vinci, 1995-1999 Thème(s) II.1.1.c - Transfer of technological innovation in the context of cooperation between undertakings and universities Appel à propositions Data not available Régime de financement CSC - Cost-sharing contracts Coordinateur ASSOCIAZIONE POLIGEOTECNICI RIUNITI - A.P.R.
