Occupational Profiles in Maritime Technologies

This article discusses the impact of the MATES initiative on the development of new occupational profiles in maritime technologies. It also explores the role of the ESCO framework in bridging the gap between education and employment. The article highlights the importance of continuous updating of ESCO and the need for mapping national occupation classifications to the ESCO system. Additionally, it discusses the aims of the MATES initiative in addressing skills gaps and identifying future prospects for the maritime sector in Europe.

  1. OCCUPATIONAL PROFILES ON MARITIME TECHNOLOGIES • Margaret Eleftheriou • Previous relevant ESCO activity • Impact of MATES impact on the definition of new occupational profiles • Pilot actions

  2. ESCO HORIZON 2020 INITIATIVE (2012 LAUNCH) Multilingual classification of European Skills/Competences, qualifications and Occupations • ESCO bridges the gaps between education and employment Provides common language between education and job market • Three pillars • Skills • Competences • Qualifications

  3. Company X Engineer University Y Can be obtained by following courses at Can be achieved by following Knows about & is qualified in Has need for Master in engineering Mechanical engineering Offers the course to allow obtaining a Is required to be Can work at Completing it gives you ESCO Occupation ESCO Skill/Competence ESCO Qualification

  4. ESCO v01 (2014) • multilingual • an interoperability tool • enabling skills-based job matching • skill/competence centred • developed in close collaboration with stakeholders (28 Reference Groups) • a “meta”-tool

  5. ESCO 2015-2016 Underwent some serious transformations Database unable to handle multilingual specificity Employment Directorate is concerned with labour market Occupations and Skills Pillars well developed Qualifications incomplete because of Learning Outcomes approach New jobs require new skills ESCO therefore requires continuous updating

  6. ESCO 2014 Pilot Mapping Mapping Project • European Commission decision to support Member States • - Either to map their national occupation classifications (NOC) and national skills classifications (NSC) to ESCO by creating corresponding tables • - or to adopt ESCO as a whole • - developed occupational mapping prototype with support of taxonomy experts

  7. AIM: • Understand requirements for the tools and/or services needed to support the mapping process after the release of ESCO v1 • - Understand the level of interoperability to be achieved using ESCO. • Create and evaluate draft tables for occupations (OCC) and knowledge, skill and competences (KSC) from HOSP; • Understand impact of information loss; • - Calculate resources needed to carry out the new mappings

  8. RESULTS • - The prototype could not consistently deliver quality results. • - More efficient to use knowledge of the Public Employment Services experts (PES) • Process of creating and maintaining mappings requires significant knowledge of classifications at hand • Mapping process must support PES experts Sector Skill Alliances ERASMUS + KA2 Cooperation and innovation and Exchange of good practices

  9. Impact of MATES impact on new occupational profiles • MATES AIMS • -describe shortages/skills gaps in maritime technologies (digital skills, green technologies, innovation management, shipbuilding, offshore renewable energies/ linked industries and services, ocean literacy) • -dentify skills needed, proficiency level, training required, means and type of delivery required, job opportunities, recognition / certification, VET/HE (Bachelors, Masters, PhD, post-doc for Universities; initial, on-the-job, life-long for VET/CVET)

  10. MATES AIMS • identify future prospects for the maritime sector in Europe • identify key technologies for which industry is not prepared (either in terms of technical capabilities or in terms of technological service and research offer). • Key paradigm shifters and game changers will be identified.

  11. Driving forces: -Emerging sectors and emerging needs -Wide range digitalization and connectivity of all modes: Internet of things, cloud services and big-data as innovative areas in maritime technologies. -Greening of maritime activities (transport, manufacturing processes, adoption of circular economy package in maritime sectors). -Combining multiple uses of the maritime space.

  12. -Autonomous and unmanned systems (from drones to gliders) from maritime monitoring and observation to transport, maintenance. -Impact of 3D printing on manufacturing processes and maintenance -Multimodality, Syncromodality in transport and logistics.

  13. -Globalization of the economy and appearance of new areas of production -Specialised maritime knowledge management and transfer -Growing inter-disciplinarity in creation of new solutions. -Ocean literacy -Novel infrastructure management and maintenance schemes. -Global traceability in maritime operations

  14. Pilot actions – creation of expert group ? • Return to ESCO OCCUPATIONS • Marine engineering drafter – many other labels • https://ec.europa.eu/esco/portal/occupation?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdata.europa.eu%2Fesco%2Foccupation%2F2ac509e8-2850-42c3-b11d-d24077a7921b&conceptLanguage=en&full=true • Marine engineering drafters convert the marine engineers’ designs into technical drawings usually using software. Their drawings detail dimensions, fastening and assembling methods and other specifications used in the manufacture of all types of boats from pleasure crafts to naval vessels, including submarines.

  15. Conclusions ESCO needs MATES new occupation profiling ESCO needs MATES professional experts MATES needs to form new expert group Let’s do it!
