Ceremonious signing of the Letter of Intent took place on 19 October 2022 in the seat of the Social Integration Club in Rumia. The agreement sets out the activities of the parties in various areas of cooperation related to the broadly understood education of children, youth and adults as part of the Pomerania Offshore Wind Energy Competence Centre.
When developing such projects, some of the most important success factors are people and their competence. The cooperation that we have established with Rumia Invest Park is of great significance in building the HR resources for the projects that are fundamental with respect to Poland’s energy security. That is why we wish to support education of high class specialists for the offshore wind energy sector that is emerging in Poland.
Rumia Invest Park will be one of the key partners of the Offshore Competence Academy, one of five flagship projects supporting the development of local content in the offshore wind farm projects. As part of the Academy, we will organise and promote events aimed at development of competent personnel for the new sector of industry, namely the offshore wind energy. Everybody who wishes to develop similar education and training initiatives in the country is welcome to cooperate with us. We would like to support such projects with respect to substance, promotion and organisation.
The parties to the agreement have unanimously conceded that actions developing skills and expanding competence of children, youth and adults will greatly affect positive perception and engagement of the local community in the offshore wind farm sector. Every type of cooperation as part of the second Flagship Programme, i.e. the Offshore Competence Academy, is a right step towards the development of the HR potential of the Polish offshore.
Energy within the scope of renewable energy sources is seminal and we have been repeating it for a number of years; as the local government, we are getting ready for the climate and energy transformation in Rumia. We would like our residents and people from the surrounding areas to have a possibility of sourcing knowledge and skills necessary to work in the offshore industry. That is why we are cooperating with diverse entities and entrepreneurs while the Letter of Intent that was signed is another step in that direction. On our part, we offer full support and mobilisation to jointly implement such projects.
To prepare excellent professional personnel for offshore wind energy, it is worth exciting interest in the offshore sector as early as possible via play and building social awareness, and subsequently via education with special attention given to technical schools. All the education and training activities have to be coordinated since the very beginning. The Pomerania Competence Centre in Rumia fulfils this role perfectly and meets the demand of Pomerania, naturally related to offshore economy, enjoying full acceptance and assistance on the part of the town authorities, headed by Mayor Michał Pasieczny.
Rumia, thanks to the cooperation with the sector’s leaders, wishes to expand the educational programme for young people from the Pomerania secondary schools and subsequently organise a training ground on the municipal investment areas and create a concept for managing an area intended for the construction of the seat of the Pomerania Offshore Wind Energy Centre. The centre, in spite of not having a permanent seat, has already organised offshore workshops for pupils of eight primary schools in Rumia. The Polenergia Group and Equinor Polska co-organised these workshops.
