Since the beginning of November 2020 project partners (BICC Sandanski from Bulgaria, 3D Group Cluster 3D Technology from Croatia, Kuressaare Ametikool from Estonia, Sachsische Bildunggeselschaft Furumweltschutz und Chemiberufe Dresden MBH – SBG from Germany and RDC Zasavje and AFormX, aviation technology and precision mechanics l.l.c. from Slovenia) have been actively participating in the consortium of the CompoWIN project - More Skilled Hands for Hi-Tech Production. The project runs from 1.11.2020-31.10.2022. Cooperation is taking place under the auspices of the European commission program Erasmus +, Key Action 2 Strategic partnership in the field of vocational education and training facilities.
The common thread of the project are composite materials and training in the field of composite industry, which boasts high added value, and the work is still done by hand. In this way, they make airplanes, boats, sports equipment, wind turbine blades, and so on. Although the industry employs a lot of workers throughout Europe and generates approximately € 70 million in revenues every day, there are still quite weak links between industry and education.
The project partnership will focus on creating a comprehensive, useful and attractive training system for future composite materials manufacturers. The project will create curricula, materials for teachers and documents for self-evaluation. In combination with an existing on-line course compohub.eu, it will be possible to turn general technical knowledge or teaching into basic teaching techniques and knowledge of composite materials, while the aim of the project is also the ability for rapid deployment of training in organizations with no previous experience with composite materials. The project will strive to place the good practices of national vocational qualification in the education systems of Bulgaria and Croatia, and thus it is expected that this will encourage the dissemination of national vocational qualification in other EU countries.
Project partners elaborated comprehensive training programme and contents, tailored to the specific needs and requirements of the composite industry and the Guide for entering the composite industry in order to easily access the Training programme "Composite fabricator - my future vocation” on the completely updated CompoHUB e-learning platform and online repository, to further enrich and revisit this online resource (http://www.compohub.eu/course/index.php).
