The project aimed to develop vocational training in the aeronautical sector by preparing, evaluating and implementing innovative vocational training activities for pupils and students using virtual reality, creating a forum for vocational training for all stakeholders, developing material for teachers and guidance counsellors and organizing a conference for recent group.

Motivation

The project was both a response to the public's strong interest in aviation and the lack of practical expertise in the field of airport vocational training, and a response to the economic and social needs of the rapidly growing air transport sector.

Results

The audience consisted of children, young people, students and adults, including teachers and careers advisors. The vocational learning activities prepared used the CEL facilities and the VR stations specially prepared for the project, where work was presented in a restricted area of the airport. A vocational forum presented jobs in the aviation sector, including the required skills or career paths. The educational materials provided teachers and counsellors with valuable ideas, and the project results were presented to them at a special conference. The project increased public awareness of employment opportunities in the aviation sector, and the quality of vocational training in aviation will be improved.
