38. Kick-off meeting of the “3D4Auto” project
In date 01/02/2022 took place, online, the kick-off meeting of the project "ECVET compatible 3D printing training modules for automotive technologies" (acronym "3D4Auto") approved by the Erasmus Plus National Agency in Slovakia as Action n. 2021-1-SK01-KA220-VET-000034617 in the framework of the Erasmus Plus KA220-VET Programme Cooperative Partnerships in Vocational Education and Training. The project, whose international partnership also includes GODESK, a company from Potenza, is mainly aimed at the implementation and development of a 3D printing and prototyping course for high schools in the field of "Automotive Technology" with the intention of stimulating the young minds of students, awakening their creativity and potential in a school laboratory. 3D printing technology is now present in many sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing, aerospace and others, but it is still little used in vocational schools, where it is necessary to implement tools and materials that can be used by teachers to promote new forms of education and training. In addition to the Italian GODESK, the following organisations are part of the partnership: Stredna priemyselna skola dopravna (Slovakia - project coordinator), Higher School of Transport "Todor Kableshkov" (Bulgaria), CEPROF (Portugal), Vienna Association Of Education Volunteers (Austria), Exelia E.E. (Greece) and International Association for Research and Development of Vocational Education and Training (Turkey). The initiative started on 01/12/2021 and will end on 01/12/2023, unless extended due to the covid pandemic. More information on the project will be available in our next newsletters.
