ENSTA Partner of the Forteim Project Selected by France 2030

Research

FORTEIM aims to train the talents of tomorrow for the energy-efficient transformation of the marine industry. Led by CINav and supported by France 2030 under the "Skills and Professions of the Future" call for expressions of interest, it brings together 15 academic and industrial partners. Cécile Plaud and Catherine Adam, teacher-researchers at ENSTA / Laboratoire FoAP in Educational Sciences, are both involved in this project. They aim to test the pedagogical tools used and to propose ways of improving them.

To support the marine industry's ecoenergy transition, Forteim is focusing on training future professionals in the field. 

I have already collaborated in the past with CiNav, the bearer of Forteim, and so it was quite natural for me and my colleague Catherine Adam to join this ambitious project,

explains Cécile Plaud, teacher-researcher in educational sciences at ENSTA, Brest campus. 

Forteim brings together a number of experts and educators to design training modules adapted to different levels (from CAP [Certificat d'Aptitude Professionnelle] to engineering school). Educational games, 3D simulators, hybrid modules... the formats on offer will be varied. The aim is to provide practical, hands-on learning through an innovative approach.

They will provide a common knowledge base on environmental issues in the marine industries (natural resources, biodiversity, pollution and waste, decarbonization of energy, etc.) and specific training to translate these issues into concrete actions (product life cycle, eco-design, etc.). 

We will intervene, once the first pedagogical devices have been created, to test them and, if necessary, suggest adjustments,

clarifies Cécile Plaud. 

Launched at the end of November 2024, the stakes for this 3-year project are high: the industry plans to recruit 72,000 professionals and train 3,200 apprentices by 2030.
