LLI-24 LitLatHV Enhancement of the mobility and employability of Lithuanian and Latvian specialists in the field of electrical engineering and high voltage technologies (LitLatHV)

Lithuania and Latvia encounter a shortage of qualified specialists in the field of electrical engineering and high voltage technologies in maritime and shore industries due to changes in technologies and legislation. Common challenge will be jointly tackled by consortium of 5 educational institutions: LAJM, KTK (LT), LJK, RTUVF, VT (LV) providing most efficient resources: experience in education and training of specialists in mentioned field, knowledge of professional requirements, academic experience, etc. – in order to increase mobility and employability of Lithuanian and Latvian specialists in mentioned field. The main project outputs are: 6 objects of education and training equipment installed in project partners’ institutions for the joint usage; upgraded qualification of at least 106 working specialists in joint activities, such as interexchange of experience, fieldtrips and internship, pilot training, meetings, etc. Students and teachers of project partners’ institutions, employees and employers from maritime and shore industries will be able to use jointly developed in the project 13 programmes of study subjects for students, 2 qualification upgrading programmes for adults, methodical materials of 14 titles in 3 languages. This project can be considered by international community as a good example of joint efforts to solve cross-border challenge.

Project objective: to increase job opportunities by improving mobility and workforce skills of Lithuanian and Latvian specialists in the field of electrical engineering and high voltage technologies.

Target groups: students and teachers of project partners’ institutions, employees and employers from maritime and shore industries.

 

Main project activities:

  1. Purchasing and installation of specialised education and training equipment in each partnering institution (6 sets of equipment).
  2. Upgrade/development of programmes of study subjects for students (13 programmes) and qualification upgrading programmes for working specialists (2 programmes).
  3. Preparation of methodical materials of 14 titles in 3 languages.
  4. Cross-border and international experience exchange: Events of joint interexchange of experience; Internship of joint team of teachers; Joint pilot training events.

Training course of Engine room simulator

On 18 May 2018, 4 working places (workstations) of the Engine room Diesel-Electric (MAN L51/60DF) LNG Carrier Ship Model simulator were fully installed in Liepaja Marine College.

From 21 May till 25 May, joint group of Liepaja Marine College and Lithuanian Maritime Academ

y personnel attended training courses on application and use of the newly installed simulator. Training course participants had the opportunity to acquire theoretical knowledge and practical (hands-on) experience on working with the Engine room simulator. The gained knowledge will be further used to train and assess the competence of ship engineering students and working engine department personnel, including officers in charge of an engineering watch, second and chief engineers and ratings forming part of engineering watch.

Engine room simulator allows for contemporary training on such essential topics as engine room equipment familiarization, system layout and flow diagrams, control system and automation, alarm and safety system, watch-keeping and troubleshooting, emission control and fuel economy management, energy management, emergency operations and vessel resource management.
