Offshore Competence

The aim of the “Offshore Competence” project is to design vocational curricula on the basis of work process analyses that, on the one hand, represent the content of skilled vocational work and, on the other hand, reflect the international standards relating to the construction and operation of offshore installations and the dimensions of sustainability, as well as providing a frame of reference for defining qualification standards and classifying them within a European Qualifications Framework.

At the same time, the curricula are implemented by way of example in a vocational school and a continuing training organisation. The project also intends to anchor the dimension of sustainability as a component of initial and continuing vocational training. For the occupational profiles, the possibility is examined of integrating the content into the occupational profiles and training regulations via the structure of the fields of deployment, or of considering an independent wind energy occupation.
