The scope of the Workshop is to specify a common reference framework and a methodology that allow to evaluate, score and report the Level of Competence of professionals and workers with regards to specific Areas of Expertise related to energy efficiency and sustainability at building and urban scale (TRAIN4SUSTAIN Competence Quality Standard).
The TRAIN4SUSTAIN Competence Quality Standard framework can be defined as a hierarchical classification (taxonomy), structured into 5 levels, that covers the broad scope of energy efficiency and sustainability of buildings and urban areas and reflects the approaches of the most relevant sustainability certification systems at building and urban scale, including the recent Level(s) framework of core sustainability indicators issued by European Commission in October 2020.
The TRAIN4SUSTAIN CQS is a living and extendible system that can evolve over time as it is able to receive new inputs for instance, new areas of expertise related to the development of construction technologies, materials and methodologies, also fulfilling its “future-looking” mission.
The deliverable of the Workshop will be a CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA) on TRAIN4SUSTAIN “Establishing future-oriented training and qualification quality standards for fostering a broad uptake of sustainable energy skills in the European construction sector".
The Workshop is based on the results of the European funded project TRAIN4SUSTAIN - ‘Establishing future-oriented training and qualification quality standards for fostering a broad uptake of sustainable energy skills in the European construction sector’, submitted in the frame of Horizon 2020.
The kick-off meeting will be held on Wednesday, 26 January 2022, from 10:00- 13:00 CET as a web meeting. People interested to participate in the kick-off meeting can contact fabio.rossi@uni.com.
All interested parties are invited to submit comments on the draft Project Plan to the Workshop secretary, Mr. Fabio Rossi (fabio.rossi@uni.com), by 13 January 2022. You are kindly requested to use the commenting form below.
