This is a pioneering collaboration between a DIH and an Integrated Vocational Training Center.
The #MIS project is funded by the Ministry of Education, with the aim of incorporating in four VET centers with specialties in automation and industrial robotics in Castilla y León, Euskadi and Galicia, the tools and knowledge linked to intelligent and sustainable maintenance systems. The project is led by Manuel Luque, Head of Studies at CIFP Simón de Colonia, in Burgos.
The DIHBU will collaborate with CIFP Simón de Colonia in Burgos, and with the other three VET centers participating in the project: IES Galileo (Valladolid); CIFP A Farixa (Orense), and CIFP Salesianos Urnieta (Guipúzcoa), providing links with industrial and development companies involved in Industry 4.0 projects focused on advanced digitization of industrial maintenance processes, and key agents of the system, as well as participating in the coordination tasks of the project.
The aim of this collaboration is to achieve the transfer of knowledge to VET teachers in the fields of automation and industrial robotics, mechanics / electromechanics, among others.
Similarly, the aim is to improve the processes of incorporation of local talent to Industry 4.0 projects and to study the options provided by Dual Vocational Training in this field.
The DIHBU has started a month ago the first works within the coordination of the MIS project, preparing also activities of technological demonstration and improvement of the knowledge of the ecosystem specifically addressed to the teachers of the participating centers.
Teachers will learn about the network of DIHs (Digital Innovation Hubs), and the DIHBU will provide them with information about its ecosystem, Industry 4.0 projects, and opportunities for cooperation with the industry of Castilla y León. It will also provide the VET centers involved with access to the technological demonstrators of the European Digital Innovation Hub DIGIS3, of which the DIHBU is a part.
The project is scheduled to last until mid-2023.
