The threats of climatic changes are just an additional and most recent aspect of the acknowledged need to reduce energy consumption and to apply ecologic aspects also in the construction of buildings, but throughout Europe, there is no homogenous awareness of these requirements and therefore the ecological balance is rather poor in a large number of EU member states, among them Italy, Slovenia, and Turkey. This is especially true for building activities performed by SMEs and through the private building sector. The main objectives of this transfer project are• to raise the awareness of ecological issues among VET teachers for technical subjects, especially construction, and to supply learning contents and training materials that show how to use energy-saving materials and to reduce energy consumption in building construction. The specific objectives are:• to transfer, adapt and validate a modular curriculum for VET teachers for building construction and to qualify them as European Energy and Building Material Advisers in three European languages, i.e. in Italian, Turkish, and Slovenian• to spread the project contents and results through a variety of valorisation activities, including third parties such as, e.g. educational policy organisations and social partners in the target countriesThe outputs will be • Train the Trainer Qualification Curricula for acquiring additional competences in energy consulting, especially for renovation of existing buildings and heating and insulation rehabilitation in Italian, Turkish and Slovenian language. They will be adapted to the country specific logistic and environmental conditions as well as to the learning cultures of the above mentioned countries and to the requirements of vocational training providers.• didactic guidelines and recommendations how to introduce these materials within the framework of existing teaching schemes, with relation to the specific demand and need of individual users and to the specific learning cultures of the above mentioned countries and to the requirements of vocational training providers• an implementation concept how to put these materials into the learning practice, i.e. raising the interest of educational policy makers and the respective organisations. The short term impact concerns the partners in the benefiting countries that are also training providers. They can immediately improve the quality of their VET measures and /or offer new training measures which are based on the project results. Through inclusion of a number of strategic multipliers, the long term impact will be an increasing awareness and understanding of the ecological value of energy-saving construction and consequently, an improvement of VET teaching contents leading one step closer to attaining the goals of the Kyoto protocol.
