LIFELONG LEARNING PROGRAMME

LEONARDO DA VINCI PARTNERSHIP

 
 
 
     

From Energetic Performance Diagnosis tests in houses

and VET practices to NEW training and career

Summary

The aim of the partnership is to confront national and regional regulation and preferences on designing, building and renovating low-energy housing (even 'positive energy' houses) through concrete examples in new construction and restoration technology, with authorities.

Partners in 4 countries compare and demonstrate, in learning situations with trainees, energetic performance diagnosis with value-added thanks to the use of a thermo graphic camera and an infrared and digitally-edited process on associated pictures.

Not only would this new pedagogical approach make learning energy-efficient-housing technologies attractive, but the trainees would also develop foreign language, multicultural skills and international team as well as test the European qualifications of the curricula in real dynamic labour market.

There would also be several benefits at the European level:

1. A common pedagogical documentation on the energetic performance diagnosis in housing technology could be set in English, aiming to tend to narrow the gap between the participating countries’ adaptation of their housing construction and maintenance technology.

2. The content of a vocational training course could be defined for building-accident victims who could be reintegrated into Energetic Performance diagnosis career or for people interested in creating a business dealing with real estate technical diagnosis.

Objectives of the partnership

Determine a common method for the realization of a pedagogic energy performance diagnosis test (Testing conditions, pre-requisite data, thermal camera settings, etc...) adaptable to each constructing mode, with value-added thanks to the use of a thermo graphic camera and an infrared and digitally-edited process on associated pictures.

  1. Each team, in turns, will have to make a test on the same construction. In theory the same results should be obtained.
  2. The results will be edited (losses; 'Energy Label' and "GreenHouse Gas Label"), interpreted and and will be attempted to explain the observed differences.
  3. The treatment of the infrared/ digital pictures, associated with the tests, will also be subjected to comparison and will be either approved or improved. OBSERVE, IDENTIFY, ANALYSE, DISCUSS AND PROPOSE. These will be the approaches. The aim is: improvement of training activities and vocational knowledge thanks to the comparison and use of skills and qualifications of vocational educators and trainees from 4 different European countries.
A common pedagogic report on energy performance diagnosis will be written in English, with an objective to harmonize and narrow the observed variations. It should be adapted to every country 's construction, design and legislation systems.The investigation and summary of studies will be put into service and applicable to people on labour market and to experts, analysing it. It is planned to define the objectives and write guidelines to training of reinstated building casualties into future real estate technical diagnosis operators or to training of people interested in creating a business dealing with real estate technical diagnosis.
