The projects that aim to increase the competitiveness of the Macedonian companies, and are carried out through the European Union programs were presented at the press conference of the Economic Chamber of Macedonia (09/07/2018).

Increasing the capacities and the competitiveness of the companies is one of the main priorities of the Economic Chamber of Macedonia, and with this intention, we carry out activities related to projects from the European Union funds, which should contribute to creating tools and services that will promote the growth, innovativeness, export capacities and the competitiveness of the companies.

A training of professional and technical staff will be conducted through the project “Toward market-based skills for sustainable energy efficient construction” (TRAINEE), part of the Work Program for “Secure, clean and efficient energy” under the call for “Energy efficiency” EE-2016-2017, for installing photovoltaics and thermal collectors with the aim of increasing the energy efficiency of the buildings.

Improving the skills of the construction workers to construct energy efficient buildings is one of the priorities of the project “Toward market-based skills for sustainable energy efficient construction” (TRAINEE), part of the Work Program for “Secure, clean and efficient energy” under the call for “Energy Efficiency” EE-2016-2017 from the “Horizon 2020” program.

Starting from 17 June 2019, as part of the Project “Toward market-based skills for sustainable energy efficient construction” (TRAINEE), a training of professional and technical staff for installing photovoltaic systems and thermal collectors will be conducted.

As a support to the construction sector, and in the direction of creating additional capacities of the employees for the implementation of the parameters for energy efficient construction, on February 5 and 6 2019 in the Centre for transfer of technologies and innovations- INNO FEIT, a two-day workshop took place for the promotion of the Project “Toward market-based skills for sustainable energy efficient construction- TRAINEE” (http://trainee-mk.eu/mk), that is part of the European program “Horizon 2020”.
