In this framework, generic SDGs related skills and soft skills, are becoming of increasing importance for engineers and scientists in the nuclear field and are of great importance for implementing radiation protection culture in practice. However, these skills are barely covered in the regular radiation protection training curricula. In October 2018 a new Erasmus+ strategic partnership ‘Train the future trainers in nuclear technology and radiation protection’ was launched by the Cherne network in collaboration with several industrial partners. In the partnership, e-learning modules and on-site training modules in radiation protection and radioecology, developed during a previous Erasmus+ strategic partnership (2015-2017), are expanded with a dedicated approach aimed at integrating SDGs and soft skills in the training modules. The new approach incorporates among others work floor learning, professional job training, e-coaching and an SDG workshop as blended learning activities. Three training schools ‘Nuclear reactors and waste management’, ‘Environmental radioactivity’, and ‘Radiochemistry and medical dosimetry’ are organised in the spring of 2019 using this new methodological approach in close collaboration with all academic and associate partners. In the presentation the implementation of the new methodology and experiences gathered from these training schools are presented. The focus of the presentation will be on options for integrating SDGs in radiation protection: activities from the training schools serve as examples how this can be achieved in radiation protection training. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/37174 | Category: | C2 | Type: | Conference Material |
