Abstract:
|
The project is aimed at realising a continuous
training module in the water industry sector, based
on multimedia and net-based technology.
New issues arising in the environmental field, such
as European and national regulations, technologies
and methodologies for safeguarding territory,
require continuous training of personnel, mainly
those employed in the water industry sector. As it
is well known, educational technology offers new
possibilities as to the development of effective
continuous training systems, highly flexible,
adaptable to specific needs, both educational and
operative, usable by trainees living in
geographical areas different from that of the
trainer. The integration of multimedia and
net-based technology, moreover, allows to combine,
into a single environment, different approaches to
learning. Thus, this kind of technology offers a
valuable solution to the problem of realising
training proposals which fit the needs of companies
working in the same sector and pertaining to
different countries. This possibility, moreover,
facilitates the mutual recognition of skills and
qualifications acquired.
Accordingly, the project will develop:
- A model of continuous technology training,
taking into account real educational needs and
specific learning problems. This model will be
mainly based on multimedia and network
technologies, which introduce an innovative
approach to continuing vocational training in
the water industry sector. The real context of
reference will be technological innovation in
water network maintenance and
rehabilitation.
- A continuous training module, aimed at a
future standard qualification among the
countries involved in the project in order to
establish a general training approach in the
world of water industry
