PRO@: USING THE "EQF AND ECVET PRINCIPLES” TO OPEN NEW QUALIFICATIONS WAYS INTO SHIPBUILDING SECTOR

 The sector of Shipbuilding and Repair in the EU is undergoing a situation of deep crisis, an irreversible loss of jobs and the announcement of new redundancies. The sector is facing important challenges in a dynamic, complex and uncertain context: the competition of third countries, investments on R&D to keep the competitive advantages and increasing demand of qualified and polyvalent professionals (still unsatisfied). At present, it employs 298,000 people, mainly qualified professionals.  Having qualified manpower is essential to meet these challenges. Among VET priorities for 2020 have use systematically the European EQF, ECVET and Europass transparency instruments to favour the mobility among the States. The development and recognition of what people know, understand and know how to do is essential to favour this challenge and help satisfying the offer and demand needs in the European Labour market. It is worth promoting and improving the transference, recognition and accumulation of the people's learning results in formal, not formal and informal contexts. PRO@: USING THE "EQF AND ECVET PRINCIPLES” TO OPEN NEW QUALIFICATIONS WAYS INTO SHIPBUILDING SECTOR is aimed at contributing to the "European learning space" from a sectoral approach, with enlarged transnational cooperation and cooperation between the vocational training and the labour world, with the participation of all the groups of interest.  PRO@ improved the transference and recognition of the learning and qualifications results through a contribution valorising the common European tools (EQF, ECVET, Europass and European CV) and transferring the methods experienced in previous Leonardo projects (Metalcert. Transnational Device to certify key competences in the metal sector. ES/06/B/F/PP-149430). PRO@ has aimed at developing and experiencing an european device to favour the transference, recognition and capitalisation of the learning results of the workers in the "ship building and repairing sector" acquired in different contexts. A device incorporating the gender dimension, whose credibility lies on the particpation and agreement of all the groups of interest and whose legitimacy lies on the implementation of EQF and ECVET principles. Results and products: European Consortium for the Development of Qualifications in the Sector. Sector cartography of key processes and competences. Design of the relevant professional qualifications. Use of ECVET system to award these qualifications with ECVET quality label. Experiencing it to implement it with mobility and exchange performances. A Device, in electronic format, enabling the interpretation and understanding of the qualifications and their capitalisation.
