Green Transition Professional of the Agricultural sector

The European Green Deal (EGD) and the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) both set a series of requirements for the so called green transition. In the EU, the green transition is accepted as a challenge or opportunity to create new jobs in current and emerging economic sectors. Consequently a need appeared for new skills or upskilling existing ones to achieve a green and digital transition. Agriculture is one sector that contains green occupations. This proposal is an introduction to this challenge

The involved countries of this proposal have not set categories of green skills based on EU legal frame and relevant research reports of the European Commission. Considering these findings the proposal is including the following activities: - Curriculum for the Green Transition Professional in the Agricultural Sector, focusing on sustainable agricultural practices, green technologies, and skills need - Training material development - ToT a critical mass of potential trainers (35 people)

The expected project results will be: - The curriculum, which will be a point of reference for the development of training courses and identification / classification of green skills at country level for the involved countries. - The training material classifying essential green skills to be rescheduled in the agricultural sector or probably develop new ones - The training course (ToT) a critical mass of 35 trainees who will communicate and train the stakeholders of the sector.
