|
|
| 13. PROJECT OBJECTIVE: (Describe the major purpose of the project.) |
|
Engineering capacity building efforts aim to ameliorate professional skills of Cambodian engineers to bring about three desirable outcomes:
• Upgrade the technical capability of Cambodian engineers to attracts investment of multinational companies,
• Gain more involvement of Cambodian engineers in foreign aids of infrastructure projects,
• Provide a basis for business development of local engineering entrepreneurs. |
| 14. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (Provide a description of the project and all its components.) |
|
Issues for the construction industry of Cambodia is the main concern to be dealt with as construction industry accounts for almost 7% of the total GDP of Cambodia for each year.
This means it plays a very important role in Cambodia’s economic development.
In ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), Cambodia could take an opportunity to attract a lot of construction investments, both from ASEAN countries and from outside ASEAN. However, Cambodian construction industry still has many issues, and it needs to be improved for a better development especially professional skill of Cambodian engineers. Many project donors were concentrating on producing a human resource and construction of infrastructure which is the key driving force of Cambodia for better development. Capacity building of Cambodian engineers is necessary to pave the way for the participation of those projects. |
| 15. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION: (Give reasons why this particular project is considered worthwhile.) |
|
Cambodia seriously lacks engineering capacity and relies heavily on imported expertise for two reasons: insufficient output from training institutions, and poor-quality education and lack of practical experience among engineering graduates. Yet Cambodia also has pressing development needs that require engineers. First, infrastructure needs to be built in step with the region’s economic growth trajectory, including roads, bridges, buildings, airports, and harbors. Second, industrial development should be accelerated, especially in manufacturing, so that the region becomes a net exporter rather than importer of manufactured goods. Third, Cambodia’s ever increasing energy requirements should be met to overcome acute power shortages. However, the engineer skills and competency is also one of the main concern of Cambodia. BEC is responsible for gathering and managing engineers throughout the country for the purpose of training and continuing to improve their technical capabilities in accordance with current and future technological developments.
The proposed training programme is focus on engineer in civil, mechanical and electrical engineering. These 3 main engineering disciplines are important for Cambodia construction industry. The training programme will be an outcome-based approach that is focus on the upgrading of the Cambodia engineers to support the construction industry in order to support Foreign Direct Investment into Cambodia. The proposed programme will be conducted by competent and experienced trainer who is Professional Engineer. |
| 16. BENEFITS (Who will benefit, directly and indirectly, from the project?) |
|
Engineering capacity building efforts aim at developing a sufficient pool of well-educated and certified engineers in Cambodia to effect the desirable outcome as follows:
• To upgrade the technical capability that is needed by Cambodia Engineer to attract investments by multinational companies.
• Gain more involvement of Cambodian engineers in foreign aids of infrastructure projects,
• Provide a basis for business development of local engineering entrepreneurs.
Objective:
To upgrade the technical capability that is needed by Cambodia Engineer to attract investments by multinational companies
Outcome:
• Disseminating training results and applying them to field work.
• Capacity improvement of Cambodia Engineers in Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering.
Output:
• Knowledge and skill enhancement, Change of mindset (professionalism, engineering ethics, sustainability, competency, quality, productivity, work confidence, etc.).
• Cambodia Engineer with competency that is recognised by Federation of Engineering Institutions of Asia and the Pacific (FEIAP) and International Professional Engineers Agreement (IPEA) |
