Meeting with Thomas Le Borgne, newly arrived as an educational referent at CALIP Skills.
Thomas, can you tell us about your background?
I started my higher education on a work-study program with a BTS Design of industrial products at Dresser-Rand, in Le Havre, where I was responsible for designing tools.
In the same company, I continued with a Professional license + CQPM Rotating machines under pressure in alternation to specialize in compressors and steam turbines (products manufactured at Dresser-Rand).
During this license year, I joined the quality department a few weeks. The activities of this service have me much more, so I decided to continue my studies by performing a CQPM quality technician in this same company with the aim of integrating the team in connection with supplier quality.
Following the acquisition of Dresser-Rand by Siemens, I did not have the possibility of being hired.
I accepted various temporary assignments but that did not fulfill me.
So I decided to go back to the FAC for 6 months in order to recover at the level in mechanics to start the Master MEEF S2I with the aim of becoming a construction teacher, a subject that I liked a lot more during my schooling.
I did my Master 1, in Alençon and I obtained the CAPLP in mechanical engineering.
Then I performed my Master 2, as a trainee teacher at the FAC de Caen and at the Lycée Paul Cornu, in Lisieux.
After my tenure, I was transferred to the Academy of Versailles as professor of mechanical engineering.
I obtained my transfer after 1 year in the Rouen academy where I found myself assigned to the Jules Siegfried high school in Le Havre.
After three years, I decided to leave national education because my job was not in line with my expectations. Back to the world of industry!
I found a CDI at Mallard SA (machining company) as a milling machine, CDI that I abandoned due to family reunification, and it was while doing my research around Caen that I was lucky enough to find this job at Calip Competences.
What are your missions at CALIP Competences?
My missions at Calip Competences are numerous and revolve around the training. I am in particular responsible for:
- Create Calip Skills catalog and training plan
- Implement educational resources and create training modules that meet the needs of Calip in order to develop the skills of learners
- Create training modules to obtain the CQPM operator-adjuster which was created to meet the needs of the employment pool.
- Set up a skills assessment process
- Coordinate the teaching team
- Promote the training offer (exhibition, open house…)
What do you like the most in your job?
I am extremely happy to have integrated Calip Skills because my duties allow me to put the knowledge amassed to good use during my career while performing new tasks in which I learn every day. All this in good humor and kindness, which is essential for me!
The whole team is very happy to welcome Thomas to the CALIP Normandie site.
