Vocational and green industrial education

The steel industry in Norrbotten is facing a major transition in connection with the transition towards carbon neutrality, which means major developments with both new processes and working methods. This has led to a great need for skills where more people need to be trained and retrained. Through collaboration with the companies, the project's target group, which is the municipal adult education within the Lapland Association of Local Authorities, will develop new in-demand industrial technical education for adults at upper secondary level that meets the skills needs of the steel industry's value chain. To succeed, the project will invest in both digital and physical equipment, develop the target group and collaborate closely with the companies on needs and development of training.
