Intregrating Green Skills in Welding

From "greenovators" to "green minds": key occupation for the green transition

The Greenweld Project is taking significant steps towards incorporating green skills into the welder's curriculum. This initiative aligns with the latest insights from Cedefop's (Center for Development of Vocational Training) briefing note on key occupations for the green transition.

Key takeaways
  • Emerging Green Occupations: Welding and related manufacturing sectors are undergoing a transformation to incorporate sustainable practices.
  • Skills Transformation: Emphasizing green skills and the integration of new technologies is essential for our industry's future.
  • VET’s Role: Vocational Education and Training (VET) systems must progress to support green skills development, ensuring the workforce is ready for the challenges ahead.

The Greenweld Project is Dedicated to Fostering These Changes by:

  • Updating the Welding Curriculum: Including essential green skills to meet industry demands.
  • Promoting Sustainability: Training welders to adopt sustainable practices in their work.
  • Innovative Training Methods: Utilizing the latest technology and hands-on approaches to ensure comprehensive learning.
