Methodology for Improvement in Energy Efficiency Training Programs in Professional Environments

Abstract

The aim of this PhD proposal is to develop and test a new methodology to design a specific capacity-building program in energy efficiency for every organization, resulting in ad-hoc training adapted to the company's needs and opportunities. This methodology will be based on three pillars. The first one is, the Organizational/Human Centred Design that link knowledge transfer on energy efficiency with behavioural and organizational change models, second, the Active Peer-Based Flip Teaching to convert individual to organisational knowledge trying to improve results and promote new knowledge and resources generation. Last pillar is a personal learning environment applied on an online open access platform to support and host this knowledge and community. Two approaches are proposed for testing the methodology. General test, based on surveys and focus groups with key actors on the one hand; and sector test, based on real implementation in the agrofood sector employing the INDUCE European project which will create an open access platform and will test the methodology in 15 pilot companies from the food and beverage sector from Spain, Germany, the Netherlands and France.
