Abstract
Introduction: The present research has analyzed the ideal pattern of organizational training for water and electricity engineers based on the teachings of the professionalism approach. The main purpose of the research is to identify the important elements of the ideal model of organizational training and the characteristics of each of them.
Method: According to the purpose, this research is of an applied type and in terms of data collection, it is a qualitative method of phenomenological type. Research data has been collected by following the principle of theoretical saturation, through semi-structured interviews with 20 lecturers and industry employers, using purposeful sampling and snowball technique. A three-step coding method was used to analyze the data.
Results: The findings show that, the desirable process of training engineers in the four basic elements of goal setting (clear and based on competence dimensions; attainable; based on interest and job and managerial needs and a forward-looking view of today's technologies), content design and compilation (comprehensiveness of content; based on job needs and skills; attractiveness and appropriate organization and based on the principle of usefulness), teaching and learning strategies (active teaching method; use of technological platforms; participation in learning and suitability to learners' conditions) and Evaluation and revision of the program (standardization of the evaluation tool, emphasis on the types of goals and variety of evaluators and corrective feedback and design of the rehabilitation program) can be abstracted.
Discussion: It can be said that the elements of the organizational training model are the same as the well-known elements of university curricula, but the features calculated for these elements are somewhat different, and it is necessary to design these elements in line with the practical needs of industrial engineers and the current issues facing them, and to pay attention to all dimensions of professional competence of engineers.
