It is planned that 5 editions (40 hours each) of the same intensive international education programme in CNC programming and operation will be implemented under the project. The programme will involve using computer simulators of CNC systems (similar to those on CNC machine control desks) and real CNC machines. The project will be implemented as “blended learning” (remote and on-campus). As a result of a series of trainings within the same intensive international education programme, the foreign participants in the project will be prepared for professional work, they will increase their professional skills and potential (including teaching), as well as their educational competencies. State-of-the-art and standard-compliant tools and teaching methods for programming CNC machines (Heidenhain) will be used. Upon completion of the training programme, every participant will receive a certificate specifying the degree of acquired qualifications and skills, as well as the number of acquired ECTS credits.
