• Specifieke voorwaarden per opleidingsincentive

  Elke opleidingsincentive heeft zijn eigen specifieke voorwaarden om te bepalen of u recht heeft. Kijk na of u voldoet aan de voorwaarden van de opleidingsincentive waarvan u gebruik wil maken (Vlaams opleidingsverlof ((opent in nieuw venster)), Vlaams opleidingskrediet ((opent in nieuw venster)) en [opleidingscheques voor werknemers](https://www.vlaanderen.be/opleidingscheques-voor-werknemers ((opent in nieuw venster))

• Opleidingscheques: beperkende voorwaarde opleidingsniveau

  Deze opleiding kan u betalen met een opleidingscheque. Bent u hooggeschoold (u behaalde een graduaats-, bachelor- of masterdiploma)? Dan kan dat enkel als u een ‘attest loopbaanbegeleiding’ heeft van maximaal 6 jaar oud. In dit attest verklaart een loopbaanbegeleider dat de opleiding noodzakelijk is voor de uitvoering van uw persoonlijk ontwikkelplan (POP). De werkgever noteert dan de opleidingscode ODB-P00001 in de terugbetalingsaanvraag.

• module 1: Basic concepts | ODB-1001311-001 | 18 uur

  This module provides the terminology, phases and processes of offshore wind energy, and allows the students to get acquainted with the correct terminology. After the qualitative description of the components, the project life cycle (from tendering to decommissioning) is outlined. The procedures and terminology in offshore wind installation are described. Lastly, the in-service terminology (during the Operations & Maintenance) is provided.

  Concepts introduced in module 1 will be used in the other modules.

• module 2: offshore wind packages | ODB-1001311-002 | 21 uur

  This module describes the typical offshore wind packages: wind turbine generators, balance of plant, infield and export cables, offshore substation, offshore works and installation. The working principles of the components and basic design are described under normal or static operating conditions.
  To finalize this module, monitoring strategies (SCADA & CMS) for offshore wind are presented.

• module 3: offshore wind dynamics | ODB-1001311-003 | 36 uur

  This technological module builds further on the concepts of module 2, taking into account environmental or load mechanisms that induce wear, tear and errors in a dynamic working regime. Extreme events are considered, just as long-term effects such as fatigue, tribology, corrosion, cable errors and impact on the grid side. The relation with the monitoring strategies and solutions is made, both from a design as well as from an O&M perspective.

  To conclude this module, the links between these operational insights, testing and validation and lessons for future designs and O&M are made.

  Module 3 is only accessible if module 2 has also been followed or if the student can demonstrate that he/she has sufficient foreknowledge (from education or work experience).

• module 4: safety, energy markets, policy, maritime law | ODB-1001311-004 | 24 uur

  The project development requires a wide range of activities preceding the installation, such as project financing, tendering and consenting, environmental impact assessment and mitigation strategies, etc.

  Furthermore offshore wind energy is developed in a context of international and federal marine spatial planning, energy law (like the grid code) and the wholesale market mechanisms.
  The impact of meteorological predictions for offshore wind is outlined as well.

• module 5: innovation and industrial cases | ODB-1001311-005 | 16 uur

  This modules looks beyond the horizon of offshore wind, including technological solutions on the component level, industrial scaling and sector coupling. This module is concluded with industrial cases.

  Module 5 can only be followed if modules 3 and 4 have also been followed.
