P4ELECS starts from a strong need in the innovation landscape of the energy sector to support the provision of competences and practical skills for projects relevant to the energy transition, reducing the time needed to go from research to implementation.
P4ELECS aims to collaborate with research and industry to develop educational materials for a Building Block Platform focusing on the topic areas production, grid, and grid users. These materials will be designed for VET providers, HEIs, industry professionals, and individual learners in a modular and flexible format, based on state-of-the-art educational methodologies and digital educational tools.
P4ELECS is based on the CDIO initiative (Concept Design Implement Operate) initiated by MIT, which is a taxonomy of the skills and competences an engineer of the 21st century should have. The P4ELECS building blocks (BBs) , CDIO spiders and the building block platform (BBP) are built around this methodology.
De klimaatdoelstellingen van de EU staan of vallen met de elektrificatie van de industrie en de samenleving. Deze transitie is niet alleen een kwestie van technologie. De echte uitdaging is ook van menselijke aard. Zullen er ingenieurs en technici genoeg zijn om de ambitieuze plannen uit te voeren? En vooral hebben ze de vereiste competenties om de klus te klaren? Prof. Annick Dexters van Campus Diepenbeek werkt aan een oplossing.
