The AMTech project has very clear and concrete objectives of adapting vocational education and training to labour market needs by:
- Upgrading competences and skills of VET learners to be able to find a job in the growing aviation industry sector
- Helping VET learners to gain the right skills that Europe can strengthen its position in global competition and have a sustained economic relaunch geared towards a green and digital transition
- Identifying trends and dynamics in the aviation industry sector and developing a new professional profile of an aviation aerospace mechatronics technician
(AMTech) in alignment with ESCO through the cooperation between educational institutions and SME and chambers of industry and crafts
- Creating a new and innovative curriculum of the AMTech specifically designed for labour market needs
- Developing the “European Aviation Aerospace Mechatronics Passport – EAAMP” to codify the most relevant profile and occupational features of the new profession, highlighting the competences, knowledge and skills required Moreover, the AMTech project requires and produces European added value:
- Materialize the transnational confrontation and exchange between different VET realities. AMTech brings together countries that have a strong
connotation of SME and can each contribute greatly to creating a European product thanks to the diversity of the partners
representing different approaches to the same challenge
- The diversity of the organisations represented amplifies the cross-border dimension of AMTech: VET providers (in different environments and contexts), SME as well as SME support organisations
- The diversity above materializes in a truly cross-border and transnational dimension allowing
AMTech to broker the exchange from and between different realities, methodologies, working mechanisms and
entrepreneurship models
