THE EDUCATION AND TRAINING OF RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN TURKEY

Abstract

The existence of quality human resources is a necessity for each development process to continue successfully. This is also true for the use of renewable energy in the developing countries that largely lack the quality human resources. Learning science is the best way of starting quality careers. For meeting the need for the quality human resources in developing countries, providing various educational programs are necessary. This education should take the new developments in science and technology into account. For the effective planning and management of such programs, high quality technical personnel should be trained to be involved in decision-making process. Energy studies are considered as a new education method and energy is classified under two groups. One of them is focused on the developing energy profession and the other one aims establishment of a society with energy conscious by focusing on the university and further education after obligatory primary and secondary school education. The best way of finding solutions to such problems is to make use of the renewable energy resources. But, for this to happen, there is a need for dissemination of the information about the renewable energy and widespread provision of the renewable energy education across the country, encouraging the use of renewable energy systems to conduct better studies of renewable energy and implementing more effective systems. In this study, prospects and proposals on the development of proper education programs for every stage of education in developing countries and Turkey. Furthermore, the awareness programs for the public are presented.
