The main goal of this project has been to harmonize ICT education with the needs of the labor market developing the capacity of VET providers to better adapt to digital transformation by means of implementing iof ndividual VET training pathways methodologies, creating a new VET qualifications of Drone programmer and operator and Virtual reality (VR) applications programmer (developer)
Achieving this goal is to create a new European standard of professional qualifications.
Identify and describe the digital skills required by market demand and the subsequent development / improvement of curricula for new qualifications.
As a result of these activities, new two-year vocational education and training programs for these qualifications is the main goal. The tool for providing these programs is an open platform of online courses, on which a team of our project partner Czech VR Agency (virtual reality experts) is currently working.
The Czech drone experts partners, Robodrone, also worked on the content of the platform, which consists of individual lessons, mainly in the form of videos with spoken commentary in English. Each lesson consists of about 12 such videos.
For the needs of the two-year vocational education and training program, have been developed a total of:
- for virtual reality 34 lessons (for the first year) and 17 lessons (for the second year),
- for drones 28 lessons (for the first year) and 16 lessons (for the second year).
The online learning platform, has been the center of events within the training program focused on new qualification on the field of virtual reality and drones, which are the fastest growing areas in Industry 4.0 due to their technology and sophistication.
After processing the requiered content, nothing will stop the launch of a pilot version of the online learning platform, where students and teachers of our partners, who are VET providers within this project, will be able to try out the new curriculum.
