The target group is employees in NWC’s member companies, and the course is free of charge for the companies. We accept both internship candidates (with a minimum of five years of practice) and “Certificate of Apprenticeship” candidates (with a minimum of one year of practice), and the goal is an exam in production technology (PRT3103) in the fall of 2025 with a subsequent professional test.

Collections

Karriere Innlandet has previous experience of similar training, both digital and session-based. Experience and evaluation of previous courses indicate that it is demanding with purely digital sessions. Therefore, the new offer will be a combination of physical sessions (2-4) and sessions on Teams (10-12). Participants must have their own computer for digital sessions and exams. The location of the physical sessions will be determined based on which companies participate, and it may be relevant to have regional sessions in addition to joint sessions.

In 2023, Karriere Innlandet Kongsvinger arranged a vocational certificate course for the woodworking industry, with Sveinar Sætherberget as facilitator and organizer. They are now strengthening the industrial side with the appointment of Jo-Andre Brenna from September 1, and will also draw in resource persons from the industry in certain subject areas.

Costs

The county council provides grants for Fagbrev-på-jobb, and the training itself is therefore free for companies. However, the company is expected to have a contact person/supervisor to assist the candidates. Any remuneration of employees for participation and travel is agreed with the company.

Info meeting

We are now looking for contact with companies that have relevant candidates for apprenticeship training. On Tuesday, September 10 at 8.30-9.00 am, NWC and Karriere Innlandet invite you to an information meeting for companies, contact NWC project manager Karl-Einar Røste for more information:
