ECoVEM project brings together VET centres, polytechnics, industrial associations, social partners to establish European Cooperation platform of Vocational Excellence in Microelectronics to tackle the challenges of: digitalisation, artificial intelligence, green technologies, gender equality and technology, integration of migrants.
ECoVEM builds on and complements the strengths of national VET systems in countries with more-advanced VET and supports the not so advanced regions to achieve VET excellence. ECoVEM implements innovative instructional approaches towards life-long capacity to self-regulate learning, hard skills and soft skills using the ecosystems-based theoretical models and performance support systems.
This report provides an assessment of the occupational profiles needed currently in the microelectronics industry along with the perspective of the sector in the sense of trends, emerging technologies, and dynamics of the required skills and competences. The analysis is based on a multistakeholder approach including the VET providers, companies, industry associations, and research institutes from the ECoVEM platform for EQF levels 3-8 and further on an online survey for the European microelectronics industry (for EQF 3-5 and EQF 6-8). The entire microelectronics value chain in Europe has been involved.
