The PRAXIBAT energy platforms, training devices on energy efficiency techniques for buildings.
Overview
Country:
France
Level of Outreach:
Regional
Field of Interest(s):
Energy Efficiency
Supported By:
Other
ADEME (Agency for Environment and Energy Management)
Description
PRAXIBAT is a complete training device concerning energy efficiency construction technics. It aims at increasing the skills of craft workers, construction apprentices, trainees from “Les Compagnons du Devoir”, VTCs’ apprentices, students in professional high schools, architects, job-seekers and construction trainers. In each region of France, the ADEME funded the implementation of PRAXIBAT energy platforms for the 5 following training modules:
- High-performance insulation;
- High-performance ventilation;
- High-performance lighting;
- High-performance heating;
- High-performance hot water production.
Project/Initiative Data
Start Date:
20080601
End Date:
20191231
Total Budget:
1 to 2 million € by region
Partners
Promoter: ADEME
Aim
Increase construction workers’ skills in energy efficiency construction techniques through training modules.
Outcomes
Results of the project/initiative:
113 energy platforms implemented in France.
Impacts/Outcomes 2:
516 energy platforms’ trainers available in France.
Policy/Initiative
Skills Gaps:
Anticipation of the evolution of construction companies’ skills needs concerning energy efficiency new construction technics.
Mis-Matching of Skills:
Possibility for construction companies to update their construction workers’ skills on energy efficiency through the training modules.
Skills Shortages:
New construction learners are trained to these new construction technics on energy efficiency, reducing the skills shortage in this field.
Recommendations
Training:
The concrete application of these new techniques represents 60% if the training duration.
Career Moves:
Construction workers, by increasing their skills on energy efficiency through these training modules, can pretend to a promotion, or a least a gain of responsibilities.
Transfer in Europe:
The modularisation allows the integration of the PRAXIBAT modules within preexisting long-term training courses.
