This project outlines the development of the Vocational Training Assistant for Renewable Energy and Energy Management at OSZ TIEM in Berlin. Faced with decreasing dual vocational training and a demand for skilled workers in regenerative energy, educators designed a new curriculum that integrates practical and theoretical education. The initiative included the creation of a solar pavilion, funded by the EU, which serves as a unique learning environment. The training program aims to produce highly skilled professionals ready to meet the demands of the growing renewable energy sector.

Genesis of the Vocational TrainingAssistant for Renewable Energy and Energy Management at OSZ TIEM in Berlin • Dual vocational training was decreasing • Teachers were in a jury for an energy contest among students • Companies mentioned that they needed skilled workers in the field of regenerative engergy • Colleagues developed the vocational training for this innovative profession + school leaving diploma • In 2002 the first class with 15 students started • In 2008 there were 160 students doing this vocational training dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
I. Continued ... • A private vocational college in Berlin copied the curriculum successfully • The school realized that it needed more technical equipment with reference to regenerative energy • In 2003, the colleagues of OSZ TIEM designed a house for experiments • Since 2007, the „solar pavillon“ has been serving for classes at OSZ TIEM • This „solar pavillon“ was funded by the EU and „SenWirt“ • The construction of the „solar pavillon“ cost about €1million dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System • Decision making institutions • For full time training: „Senatsverwaltung für Bildung, Wissenschaft und Forschung“ in Berlin • For dual training in Germany: • BiBB (Bundesinstitut für Berufliche Bildung) • Employers (Chambers) • Employees (Labour Unions) • KMK (board of ministers of education in Germany) dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System 2. Similar professions • Electrician (dual training – skilled crafts) • Assistant for Electro-automation (full time training) at OSZ TIEM since 1997 • A similar profession in Butzbach • „Solarteur“ further training in Munich dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System 3. Admission requirements • Successfully passed the medium school leaving examination for the school leaving diploma „MSA“ after 10th grade • Preferably first time initial vocational training 4. Duration • 3 years (desirable: 2 years vocational, 1 year general training) dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System 5. Contents (see curriculum) • General education (providing the school leaving diploma which entitles to start studying B.S. at „Fachhochschule“ (University of Applied Science) • Theoretical education • Practical education (Work placement) dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System 6. Examinations • State examination at the end • 1 examination with • 9 partial examinations Centralized: Maths, German, English Practical: Electro-engineering, data remote control, regenerative energy engineering Others dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System 7. Title „Staatlich anerkannte(r) Assistent(in) für regenerative Energietechnik und Energiemanagement“ dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
II. Existing System 8. Outlook/ideas for improvement • Better intertwining with companies • Development of a recognized profession with dual training • Real „Abitur“ after another year • More publicity • More horizontal and vertical mobility dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
III. Odyssee through the institutions (duration) • 1 to 2 years • Only dealing with one authority (SenBWF – especially Mr Walk and Mr Wiedemann) • Cooperation with a working group in Thüringen/Sachsen • Freedom, as it was considered pilot project • Curriculum also approved by the KMK to make it valid all over Germany dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
IV. Advisory boards/bodies • Companies (e. g. PhoenixContact) • DGS (German Association for Solar Energy) • Berufliche Schule des Wetteraukreises, Butzbach • Universities Not the Chambers though dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
V. Technical equipment • Solar pavillon • Cf catalogues dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
VI. Safety regulations • Betriebsvorschriften (in-house rules) defined by BG=„Berufsgenossenschaft“ (Employer's Liability Insurance Association) • VDE-rules (German Electrical Engineering Association) • Lab rules • (for wind turbines the licence for heights – G41 - is advisable) dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
VII. Companies and professional associations • Energie & Umwelt Hohenhameln • Bundesverband Windenergie • DGS • Vattenfall (Herr Fischer) • Energie für Bildung (newly founded association) • Project: Biomass power plant for training purposes • Politicians (local, regional, federal) dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
VIII. Reaction on the market • The market for training initiatives is very keen on this concept • Good job offers after finishing the training • Many employers are not aware of its existence dorlies.radike-thiel@berlin.de
