Objectives

Training RE Professionals for Energy Solutions

Often, graduates are productively employed by companies with great effort and long training periods. This hinders an increased expansion of renewable energies in the country. Three project objectives have been jointly defined;

Objective One: New practice-relevant modules in the field of renewable energies are integrated into the curricula of KNUST and UENR.
Objective Two: Professors and lecturers of KNUST and UENR are trained and experienced in agile teaching/learning formats on practical application of renewable energies.
Objective Three: An international network of experts, entrepreneurs, and companies in the field of renewable energies is operative and in active contact with the “Council for Education and Renewable Energies”.
