Project Description:

TRAIN4SUSTAIN aims to harmonize training and qualification standards to promote the widespread adoption of sustainable energy skills in the European construction sector. The project focuses on establishing a Competence Quality Standard (CQS), developing a European Skills Registry, and introducing a Skills Passport to facilitate mutual recognition of qualifications across EU countries. By enhancing comparability and transparency of national qualifications, TRAIN4SUSTAIN seeks to stimulate demand for skilled professionals, support cross-border mobility, and integrate sustainability competencies into public procurement processes.
