Crafts are getting ready for nZEB - development of e-learning platform
Abstract
Since 1 January 2020 it is prohibited to build other than nearly zero energy buildings (nZEB) in the EU countries. This introduces more stringent requirements on all professions from architects to crafts. The construction of new buildings brings higher demand for technology but also for life-long education. The information and knowledge we learned at school is hardly sufficient today, therefore CraftEdu project introduced now qualification and training scheme for nZEB. Due to the restrictions in 2020-2021 the education for the craftspeople was transformed into the fully electronic way. The goal of the paper is to introduce new method and approaches of e-learning we used in four countries. Education courses for eight selected crafts were prepared for the winter and autumn 2021. Most of them did not take place in classrooms but were performed online, using online training platform, video content, mock-ups, or a webinar form. Even in the category of craftspeople there is significant demand for e-learning courses. This significantly increased the interactivity and attractiveness of the training courses. The courses took place in the Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Bulgaria and Austria. The e-learning showed possibility of upscaling of the training process.
