FORECOLOGÍA TRAINING PATHS IN ECOLOGICAL AGRICULTURE FOR SMALL ENTERPRISES ES/03/B/F/PP-149080
The goal of the project is to develop training paths and material for training of workers and producers in ecological production methods, following three main steps: • Research on the agricultural sector in general and on ecological agriculture; research on the most relevant professions (socio-economic and skills analysis); research and definition of training needs. • Development of training paths and materials. • Validation of the results, both internal (through a series of pilot training activities) and external, by a final seminar.

WORKING PROGRAMME MAIN PHASES AND WORKING PACKAGES (1) The project has three main Parts: research, development and validation. Each part is divided in Phases, and each phase in Working Packages. Part 1 – RESEARCH Phase I – Determination of the research field. WP 1 – Initial Meeting. Phase II – Socio – economical analysis of the sector. WP 2 – National analysis. WP 3 – Comparative analysis WP 4 – Interim meeting Phase III – Socio – economical analysis of professional profiles WP 5 – National Analysis WP 6 – Comparative Analysis Phase IV – Skills and competencies analysis. WP 7 – National Analysis. WP 8 – Comparative Analysis. WP 9 – Interim meeting. Phase V – Training need analysis. WP 10 – National Analysis WP 11 – Comparative Analysis WP 12 – Interim meeting WP 13 – Interim dissemination action FORECOLOGIA
WORKING PROGRAMME MAIN PHASES AND WORKING PACKAGES (2) Part 2 – DEVELOPMENT Phase VI – Elaboration of training paths and materials WP 14 – Elaboration of paths. WP 15 – Elaboration of training materials WP 16 – Interim meeting Part 3 – VALIDATION Phase VII – Internal validation WP 17 – Development of experimental training actions. Phase VIII – External validation (Final dissemination) WP 18 – Final dissemination action. WP 19 – Final meeting
WORKING PROGRAMME GOALS OF EACH PHASE (1) • Phase I – Determination of the research field. • In this initial meeting, we will have to discuss on: • The notion of ecological agriculture. • Determination of sub – sectors to be analysed. • Determination of the productions to be analysed. • The goal: establish the research field. • Phase II – Socio-economic analysis of the sector. • A national series of analysis, and then a transnational analysis on the agricultural sector, and the sub sectors will be to be developed. • The goal: determine the potential development of ecological production methods in those sub – sectors, attending to the growing trends in them. • Phase III – Profiles analysis. • National and transnational analysis of social, economical, labour and training issues in the profiles analysed. • The goal: analyse professional profiles for which the training devices will be developed. • Phase IV – Competencies and Skills within each profile • In this phaseprofiles will be analysed from the skills and competencies point of view. • The goal: establish the framework in which the training devices will have to be developed.
WORKING PROGRAMME GOALS OF EACH PHASE (2) Phase V – Training need analysis. Keeping in mind the professional profile defined in its competencies and skills, we’ll have to analyse the existing training devices in the national systems. The goal: to determine which competencies are NOT covered by existing devices, to determine the CONTENTS of our training devices. Phase VI – Elaboration of training paths and material. We will elaborate a training path + materials for each profile, plus a common training path and material on use of ITC. The goal: this is the main product of the project. Phase VII – Experimental training actions. Partners will develop training actions using the devices developed in the project. The goal: to validate “internally” the results and products of the project. Phase VIII – Final dissemination A final dissemination action will be held to show the complete results of the project. The goal: to show and validate “externally” the results of our project.
