As the theoretical part of the training is almost completely available in digital format, the focus of the DERIN project will be for the practical training, or at least a certain percentage of it, to be shifted in the digital environment using the right tools, considering the vast diversity available and the fast pace the technology advances in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The partnership consists of a VET school, three maritime and inland waterway training centers on their own or as part of maritime academies\/technical universities, a worldwide operating educational and research institution, and a higher education institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Coordinated by CERONAV, the partners will select the relevant learning modules adaptable to innovative multimedia tools, applications, and resources, will test and familiarize themselves with the mentioned tools followed by the development of corresponding multimedia learning materials (curriculum, teaching methods, procedures, role-play scenarios, videos, etc.) as a toolkit for practical training including also guidelines for trainers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a highly relevant outcome, three learning teaching training activities will take place. Special training activities for students will allow trainers to include feedback from the end-users and trainees to gain knowledge and competence for the new working environment. As the use of simulators in maritime and inland navigation education and training is an essential component for developing trainees\u2019 competencies necessary for the job, special attention will be given to developing innovative and easily accessible course modules via open educational resources on the internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Specially designed to boost the capacity of VET teachers and trainers, focussing on their digital competencies and capacity to upskill for innovative online resources and tools, their usage, and design, the project will develop a toolkit for teachers\/trainers including newly developed materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To take a step further and have a larger scope, policy recommendations and guidelines will be developed to focus on the impact and legacy of the project targeted towards sector\u2019s stakeholders at the local, regional, national and European level concerned with maritime and inland waterway transport and the successful design and implementation of the e-learning program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The large sector of waterborne transport has to be taken into consideration, with all its implications in the EU economy as training is always fundamental in an industry so well regulated and standardized at the international level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dissemination activities will be rolled out to raise awareness, increase knowledge, influence attitude and finally change the behavior of interested and relevant parties including at least one Multiplier Event in each of the six partner countries. Quality monitoring and control activities will ensure high standard outcomes and sustainable results to be transferred in different education areas and, with the support of Associated Partners to reach larger territories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" DERIN Digital Education Readiness in Maritime and Inland Navigation Action:\u00a0Key Action 2 (KA2) Call:\u00a0Strategic Partnerships in response to COVID-19_KA226 The total budget approved by the National Agency:\u00a0179.995 euro Period:\u00a024 months (01.03.2021 \u2013 28.02.2023) Lead Partner:\u00a0Romanian Maritime Training Centre \u2013 CERONAV Partnership: Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences \u2013 UNIZG, Croatia Technical University of Varna \u2013 […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":101,"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12\/revisions\/101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.derinnet.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"http:\/\/derin-net.ceronav.ro:82\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/poster-QR-var2-1-724x1024.png\")
