Popis: Although legal obligations are provided in the National legal framework by transposing the provisions of the 2010/31/EU Directive, the Nearly Zero Energy Building (nZEB) concept does not seem to be easily applicable yet in Romania. One of the main barriers for this consist in the skills gaps experienced by the building sector, the current qualification courses and training schemes being generally not satisfactory and underdeveloped to face the challenge of effective nZEB implementation. This paper presents the preliminary developments of the Train-to-nZEB project, namely the setting up of Building Knowledge Hubs (BKH) for practical trainings of construction workers and specialists for the design and construction of NZEBs. Building on the results of the BUILD UP Skills initiatives and Passive House principles, the BKHs will provide capacity for conducting practical trainings for on-site professionals, high level specialists and decision makers. To a large extent, the BKH training centres aim to satisfy the existing demand for practical training of trainers and teachers, to provide opportunities for organization of courses to certify builders of NZEBs and to update existing skills. As a major functional goal, BKHs will provide courses for continuing qualification and training for architects, engineers and building managers and other building professionals with the goal to improve the existing classroom-based training schemes with practical trainings using the new developed facilities.
