Acronym
FACE3
Description
Interreg Italy-Austria FACEcamp project offers a training course aimed at increasing the know-how of companies and freelance professionals operating in the field of complex technological building façades. The course aims to transfer to freelance professionals and technical staff of construction companies, concepts and innovative methods in the sector of complex technological façades. The educational program has a complete structure regarding the covered topics, to provide innovative concepts, tools and methods, while stimulating the growth of local skills in the construction sector, increasingly subject to environmental and energy regulations and severely affected by the global economic crisis.
Through this course, the aim is to increase the specific know-how of companies and freelance professionals operating in the field of façades and to build a network of technical operators and specialized people who can work in the market with quality and competence, to reach important goals in terms of positioning and revenues.
The course is divided into 6 units, for a total of 15 days. It is characterized by a strong orientation to practice with the participation of experienced speakers, well-known for their skills in the field. All contents have been conceived and designed to address the main themes of concept, design, calculation, production, installation and maintenance of complex building facades. A study trip to Milan is planned to closely analyse significant examples of technological innovation in the field of façades.
Participation is free of charge for selected trainees.
Expected results
- Increase of the level of expertise of technicians (free professionals and technical-operating staff of companies) in the sector of complex technological building facades.
- Ability to design, develop and manage a complex Project Work, thanks to skills and concepts that can be directly replicated in everyone’s own professional situation.
