Between formal and informal a double model to
assess competences in the building sector
INTRODUCTION
A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE APPROACHES AND ACTIONS
THE TRASFOBUILDING PROJECT IS BASED ON SEE THE
ATTACHEMENT
2Evaluation process of the competences acquired
and utilities description
3Trasfobuilding model
Evaluation process
The management of the assessment processes is
arranged according to the procedures stated
below, supported by the tools that have been
defined within the projects from which
Trasfobuilding arises.
4Trasfobuilding model
Evaluation process
Evaluate the competences acquired through formal
and informal processes based on the Construction
Competence Repertory Two possible types of
user Employees who require certification of
their previously acquired competences to gain
value in the labour market Individuals who
participate in a training programme, in order to
assess and certify previously acquired
competences upon entry, and upon leaving
5Trasfobuilding model
Evaluation process
See attachment
6Trasfobuilding model
Evaluation process
Therefore, the users are guided towards two types
of output the certification of competences
demonstrated following a check (corresponding to
the Construction Competence Repertory) secondari
ly, the registration of experience demonstrated
by collecting evidence, outside the context of a
real evaluation process
7Trasfobuilding model
Evaluation process
The final outputs Certification of competences
Registration of experience In the Italian
experience this registration occurs inside the
Formedil construction database, with the
consequent entry in the Employee Training
Booklet, both for users coming from training
programmes and users with work experience.
8Process output
The personal vocational training booklet in the
building sector is a system to identify areas of
knowledge and expertise of the individual. The
contents of the booklet can be updated as
needed

The phases in detail - 1
0 Request of access to programmes Formalising the opening of the procedure
1 Acquisition and organisation of evidence Performed at individual counselling level, it provides the information necessary to obtain and formalise the elements aimed at proving possessed knowledge and competences. It ends with a dossier of the evidence, containing formal documents (from education or training) output/products experience demonstrated CCR Construction Competence Repertory Documentation plan Self-assessment sheet Dossier of evidence
2a Evaluation through evidence For those who are not interested or do not have the possibility of demonstrating competences in the CCR through exams an interview aimed at formalising the content of the dossier of evidence.
2b Assessment and accreditation of previously acquired competences For those entering a training programme. Aimed at recognising and accrediting any training credits for the customisation of the programme.

13ONE OF THE UTILITIES THE REPERTORY OF COMPETENCES
14Trasfobuilding model
Searching for a benchmark system
In recent years the Italian building training
system has experienced some rationalisation
problems
- Inhomogeneous training offered across the
country. - Difficulties in comparing training objectives
and results. - Actual obsolescence of the contractual
professional roles. - Recognition of certifications for professional
development purposes. - Distribution of certifications throughout the
nation for mobility purposes.
15Trasfobuilding model
Searching for a benchmark system
Hence two subjects of development were identified
- Rationalisation of the training offered
- which was developed through various national
projects - Tracking the competences acquired
- with the search for a classification system
univocally recognisable by all those involved
16Trasfobuilding model
Why not qualifications?
Because in Italy the system of qualifications cont
emplated by the Employment Contract is in reality
superseded by the organisation of production and
the evolution of the labour market in the
building sector
Because the definition of professional roles is
the task of the Regional authorities, and there
is currently no agreement on homogeneity among
the regional repertories e.g. the description of
a mason varies from one region to another, and
even varies according to the qualifications
established in the industry employment contract.
17Trasfobuilding model
Recognising abilities
Furthermore, the skills that constitute the
professionalism of an operator can be acquired
both inside and outside training through a
training programme (initial or continuous) but
may also be the skills gained on the workplace on
a daily basis, formal skills and informal skills
18Trasfobuilding model
CONSTRUCTION WORK as a benchmark
- The benchmark is the work, the only objective
element in which the following are able to
converge univocally - training
- users
- companies
19Trasfobuilding model
Which benchmark level at work?
Not the role, but, a level lower, the skills
that it consists of, identified as
competences The system has adopted a
criterion of competences independent
units placed in a Repertory of construction
work A building brick that, aggregated to
others, may lead to the development of one or
more professional roles
20Trasfobuilding model
Competence
For the system, competence is
- An aggregate of knowledge and capacities
that is univocally identifiable, unsuitable
for achieving a full professional qualification,
but sufficient to be used independently in the
labour market, with reference to the current
apportionment of the activities. - A unit that can stand alone, but also be
- aggregated to others in the definition
- of old and new professional profiles, and from
this viewpoint it may be capitalised by the
employee and used in the labour market.
21The systems logic
More specifically, this logic breaks down
construction work into
MACRO AREAS Management, Safety, Construction

25The Repertory of Competences
To conclude the programme, the system is based on
two benchmarks COMPETENCE
The description is arranged into two
parts DESCRIPTION the expected
results ASSESSMENT INDICATORS the corresponding
acceptable indices And these are connected
to THE TRAINING PROGRAMME STANDARDS thus the
benchmarks with which to achieve competence also
through training programmes

27The systems logic
The professional role is rebuilt by aggregating
univocal competences, identified on the Repertory
28The systems logic
The description of the roles through
competences (at a lower level) may allow a
comparison to be made between different
description systems
29An example the core areas of the role of the
mason
For simplicity reasons, let us now consider just
the professional technical competences. In the
Italian labour organisation the core competences
of the role are associated to the following
areas Masonry the elementary competences and
some intermediate ones constitute the
professional base, the others are
specialisations Framing for some elementary
framing competences for reinforced
concrete Finish for some elementary
competences such as the realisation of plaster

procedures have been developed, which we propose
to test in this project.

MATERIALS, READING THE DRAWING 1) Different
materials must be used to prepare the sheathing
(wood, iron), which must be identified on the
basis of the technical drawing and the design
indications. Have you ever had to choose the
materials personally and withdraw them from
stores while at work? YES, I NORMALLY DO IT
YES, I HAVE SOMETIMES DONE IT NO, I
HAVE NEVER DONE IT 2) Different
materials must be used to prepare the
reinforcement (straight reinforcement tools,
stirrups, strips,), which must be identified on
the basis of the technical drawing and the design
indications. Have you ever had to choose the
materials personally and withdraw them from
stores while at work? YES, I NORMALLY DO IT
