Scope: EXCEL4HOUSING4.0 is a world-class Erasmus+ Partnership for Excellence aimed at building a transnational network of Centres of Vocational Education bringing together VET providers, academic and research entities, innovation and industry clusters as well as public entities coordinating energy efficiency and sustainable programs at national and regional level. This initiative will seek to address emerging needs and the “jobs of the future” for energy efficient and sustainable housing – Housing 4.0.
Expected Results: EXCEL4HOUSING4.0 will develop a network of at least 5 macro-regional VET hubs (Centres of Vocational Excellence – CoVE), each one composed of at least one VET provider and one business representative. These CoVEs will operate at national/regional level, putting in place a solid structure for business education cooperation and dialogue to find common solutions and practices to develop an innovative cross-border VET ecosystem in the field of energy-efficient and sustainable buildings.
The project aims at becoming an European reference initiative, supporting in the green transition and decarbonization of the buildings sector, by contributing to the implementation of the European Green Deal, the New European Bauhaus, the Renovation Wave and the EU Pact for Skills in the construction sector.
