All big and medium size ports have a development strategy which includes such objectives: Increase the operative efficiency and the qualifications of workers, create new traffics and offers, and develop the co-operation with the towns creating new services in order to promote logistic activities and to manage the important changes created by the liberalisation and globalisation. This project tries to find answers to these training needs and particularly wants to create a homogenous curricular system for all the European space, guaranteeing coherent training procedures for harbour workers. The main results of the project will be : (1) A definition of different professional profiles ad competences, (2) An accreditation and certification model with quality standards, and indicators. To disseminate the results, the partnership composed by 7 important port authorities – 4 from Spain and 3 from France, Greece and Italy – will use a web site and different activities like seminars and conferences (also international), presentation, publications, articles in newspapers.
