Welcome to Distool Weld
Nowadays, the qualification of professionals in welding technologies is available and harmonised in 29 European countries. However, most of the courses for obtaining this qualification are organised according to traditional teaching methods.
The development of the innovative learning material will attract more persons to the welding area by improving the overall quality of the qualifications currently on offer.
Focused in the development of a new educational tool based on a training product prepared by SLV Duisburg to be transferred to different target countries, the DISTOOLWELD Project will constitute an important starting point for an increase in the application of distance learning for the qualification of professionals in the area of welding technologies.
DISTOOLWELD will provide innovative teaching methodologies aimed at improving the quality of existing VET courses and stimulating welding trainees' mobility between the partner countries.
