COnstruction and DEmolition waste management training for Site MAnagers

Back To Map

Description

Construction and demolition waste is the largest waste stream in the EU, representing about one third of all waste produced in terms of volume. This generates the need to provide the construction sector with up-skilled site managers capable to:
• Supervise on-site workers regarding waste identification, separation and collection at source,
• Execute waste management plans for site-works,
• Ensure the health and safety processes,
• Consult with customers, workers and other involved agents
The project aims is to support VET provision for site managers in C&D waste by addressing modern training needs in accordance with EU-priorities regarding waste management. The objective is to develop Open Educational Resources (OERs) that ensure easy and free access to online training and certification.

Data-driven learning outcomes on the skills required by site managers to supervise waste identification, separation and collection at source.
Impacts/Outcomes 2:
VET learning units for a corresponding modular course.
Impacts/Outcomes 3:
VET guidelines for the integration of the developed learning outcomes into existing VET programmes.
Impacts/Outcomes 4:
Pedagogical resources and assessment tools offered as OERs.
Impacts/Outcomes 5:
A CODESMA Vocational Open Online Course
Impacts/Outcomes 6:
Framework for the integration of C&D waste management skills into EU certification and standardisation schemes, including a Certificate Supplement and position paper.

Two workshops (LT and DE) to promote results and validate learning materials.

Three national information days to disseminate results.

Policy/Initiative

Skills Gaps:
Good practise examples about circular economy technologies and case studies are implemented in the VOOC.

Recommendations

Training:
The recommendations are to create awareness of the handling of waste before it is produced on building sites and organize possible reuse and recycling. In that way, the volume of waste can be reduced.
Other EQF-Level:
3, 4, 5 and 6
Transfer in Europe:
Yes. The VOOC will be available in 5 languages
