Programmi „Parem koolitus ohutuma toidu nimel“ TRACESit käsitleva koolituse eesmärk liikmesriikides on digiteerida kogu sertifitseerimisprotsess ja sellega seotud menetlused ning see on kooskõlas Euroopa digitaalarengu tegevuskava deklaratsiooniga. Koolituskursuste eesmärk on koolitada eksperte, laiendada nende teoreetilisi teadmisi ja praktilisi oskusi ning jõuda ühisele arusaamisele ELi õigusaktidest. Nende eesmärk on aidata kaasa ELi toidu- ja söödaalaste õigusnormide paremale järgimisele ELi liikmesriikides ja ELi eksportivates kolmandates riikides ning suurendada naabruses asuvates kolmandates riikides teadlikkust ELi lähenemisviisist toidu- ja söödahügieenile, loomatervisele, loomade heaolule, taimetervisele ja ametlikele kontrollidele.
Projekt koosneb viiest kursusest, mis hõlmavad kokku 16 kolmepäevast koolitust teemal „ELi kaubanduse kontrolli- ja ekspertsüsteemi (TRACES) kasutamine“:
- Kursus 1. TRACESi kasutamine elusloomade ja loomsete saaduste importimisel: 4 kolmepäevast treeningut.
- Kursus 2. TRACESi kasutamine taimsete saaduste importimisel: 3 kolmepäevast treeningut.
- Kursus 3. TRACESi kasutamine elustaimede importimisel: 3 kolmepäevast treeningut.
- Kursus 4. TRACESi kasutamine mahepõllumajanduslike toodete importimisel: 3 kolmepäevast treeningut.
- Kursus 5. TRACESi kasutamine elusloomade ELi-siseses kaubanduses: 3 kolmepäevast treeningut.
Kursuse konkreetsed eesmärgid on:
- Koolitada ametliku kontrolliga tegelevaid töötajaid, et nad oleksid kursis ELi kaubanduse kontrolli- ja ekspertsüsteemi (TRACES) kasutamisega.
- Seega on programmi eesmärk tagada TRACESi ühtlustatud kasutamine, võttes arvesse uusimaid kättesaadavaid ajakohastusi. Kuna TRACES on pidevalt arenev IT-vahend, on programm ka paindlik ja võimeline kohandama selle sisu süsteemi uute tulevaste võimalustega. Nii era- kui ka avalik sektor saavad kasu TRACESi ühtlustatumast kasutamisest ja ametlike kontrollide eest vastutavate töötajate põhjalikumatest teadmistest süsteemi kohta: parem koostöö tolliga, kättesaadavad statistilised andmed, haldustöö vähenemine, saadetise kiirem tollivormistus piiril jne.
Taotlejate profiilid peaksid vastama järgmistele kriteeriumidele:
- Olge TRACESi rakenduse kasutamisega seotud (või potentsiaalselt seotud) riikliku pädeva asutuse, asjaomaste ministeeriumide või kontrollitalituste ametnikud järgmisel aadressil:
- kursus: Piiripunkti tasand.
- kursus: Määratud sisenemiskoha tase.
- kursus: Inspekteerimispunkt.
- kursus: Piiripunkti ja määratud sisenemiskoha tasand.
- kursus: LVU tase.
- Osaleda poliitika ja määruste koostamises või kohandamises kooskõlas määrusega (EÜ) 882/2004 ning seoses süsteemi TRACES kasutamisega.
- Tutvuge mahepõllumajanduse kava põhimõtetega (4. kursus).
- olema ohustatud, et levitada koolituse käigus omandatud teadmisi, kui nad on koolituse lõpetanud.
- valdama koolituse keelt (inglise/prantsuse keel vastavalt sessioonile).
