The project represented the first phase of the BUILD UP Skills initiative in Slovenia. The first objective was to gather the key national stakeholders from the energy, education & training and building sectors. Together they formed a National Qualification Platform. The platform mapped the existing workforce and qualification programs, identified future skills needs and analysed which gaps and barriers must be overcome in order to train the workforce and reach the 2020 EU energy targets. Results were bundled in a National Status Quo report. The platform then formulated a National Roadmap of measures to overcome skills gaps and barriers, which was endorsed by key stakeholders.

Dedicated to stimulate demand for sustainable energy skills in the construction sector
BUSLeague project tackled the demand for an energy-skilled workforce by developing a publicly available cross-craft qualification framework (comprising 98 tasks and 92 learning outcomes), that remains accessible today for shaping new training programs. During its execution, the project successfully upskilled over 5,600 individuals, including retail staff and installers, while securing concrete commitments to integrate energy skills into public procurement. The project provides open access to a vast compilation of tailored curricula, e-tools, and handbooks, which continue to be utilized by partnered training centers across Europe.
The BUILD UP Skills United (BUSUnited) project, under the LIFE Clean Energy Transition programme, promotes sustainable energy skills in Europe’s construction sector by fostering collaboration, innovative training, and large-scale upskilling to support the EU’s climate-neutral goals.
