During the last decade, Maintenance and Engineering Asset Management are increasingly recognised as importance functions within European industry in its quest for long term sustainability. The implementation of efficient Maintenance Management Policies requires adequately skilled personnel. Yet, there is a clear gap between the current industrial needs and personnel competences. This gap is striking as the current educational and VET systems lack the necessary tools to provide adequate training and competence assessment. Recently, within the EU, the efforts to establish a common framework for Maintenance Management Competence Requirements have taken a new direction as a result of initiatives of EU professional bodies, such as the EFNMS, which is acting to establish related guidelines and requirements. The iLearn2main project is in line with such initiatives, aiming at bringing the right innovative e-training and competence self-assessment tools to the right people, in order to improve Maintenance Management practice in modern production units. The tools and e-content were developed by an EU consortium comprising Universities & Research Centres (University of Portsmouth & ATHENA Research & Innovation Centre), Professional Bodies (Utek - Swedish Maintenance Society), Innovation Diffusion Parties (Latvia Technology Park, CNIPMMR-The SME Association of Romania) and maintenance-related engineering companies (ATLANTIS Engineering). The developed tools, available at www.ilearn2main.eu, have been pilot tested at several National and International events, including the 4th World Congress on Engineering Asset Management. Piloting results show a very positive reception and prospects for the innovative tools.
