Tamar II: Learning and Accreditation Issues in Online Training for Engineers in the Maritime Transport Sector.

This project aims to develop ODL methods within companies in the European maritime transport sector. The focus will be on the European shipbuilding and shipping industries, as they have similar requirements from the point of view of skill needs and development strategies. This project will tackle the need to ensure a well skilled, technologically capable workforce in order to maintain competitiveness and healthy levels of employment in these sectors. Four major products are envisaged: ° A study to support the development of Internet learning.° An on-line technology training module in ship resistance and propulsion systems, which displays all the quality characteristics needed to satisfy learning and accreditation objectives.° Enhancement of existing training modules developed under Leonardo I and the Tamar project - such as development of small craft technology and design for training, and ensuring that these fit the learning and accreditation requirements identified.Guidelines on the strategic aspects of accreditation within the marine engineering profession, for accrediting bodies and universities in the maritime sector. WEGEMT, an association of 43European universities, will ensure that training providers and potential users are informed of project developments and final results. The RINA, as the professional engineering body, will be responsible for disseminating information to industry. Publications and conferences by these organisations will enhance distribution.
