"Vet Port - it has said in charge of the formation for the Harbour Authority of Livorno, Sonia Avanzoni - has the scope to contribute to implement the national and regional laws on the acknowledgment of the competences according to European system (ECVET) in the involved Countries (Italy, Spain, Holland, Ireland). The project, that it is worth 450 thousand euros, previews the experimentation of the mutual acknowledgment of the competences on some fundamental professional figures of the harbour marine field, as the manager of the harbour terminal, the planner of the ship, the large square or the railroad, the crane operator and the conductor of means of raising and towing".

Soon we will elaborate with the other partner a policy paper to carry to the attention of the EU commission for the standardization of the process of transfer, acknowledgment and certification of the competences of the examined professionalities. The objective is to place the bases in order to extend such process to all the professional figures of the ports".
