Bilateral Partnership for Work-based Vocational Training in Norway<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Since 2017, Dr.-Ing. Paul Christiani GmbH & Co. KG has been working with its Norwegian partner IKM Instrutek AS to make technical training in Norway more practical with professional teaching materials, innovative learning systems and interactive training programmes, and to provide trainees with the knowledge, skills and competences that are in demand on the labour market.<\/p>\n<\/div>

From Constance via Berne to Norway<\/strong><\/p>\n

Christiani, based in Konstanz, has been active in technical vocational training for over 90 years and now supplies its products in more than 90 countries \u2013 in Norway, IKM Instrutek acts as sales representative. The teaching systems are supplied to vocational schools, colleges, and universities with electrotechnical and mechanical specialisations. But also medium-sized companies and large corporations, such as Equinor and Hydro in Norway, use Christiani\u2019s teaching systems. \u00a0\u201cEspecially in the areas of Industry 4.0, electromobility as well as renewable energies, we are experiencing an ever-increasing demand. We visit teachers in training institutions to find out what equipment they need in the short and medium term as part of technical education and training and which solutions from Christiani\u2019s product portfolio can improve teaching,\u201d says Bj\u00f8rn Fredrik Ilestad, Sales Engineer at IKM Instrutek.<\/p>\n

It all started in 2017 at the World didac tradeshow in Bern, which brings together traders and buyers of products and services from the VET sector, science and technology. \u201cAt that time, I got into conversation with a representative of IKM Instrutek,\u201d explains Sandra Strobel, Area Sales Manager Europe at Christiani. \u201cOriginally, we didn\u2019t have the Norwegian market in mind, but it turned out that the idea of dual education based on the German model is anchored and our solutions fit very well with the vocational training programmes in Norway.\u201d In the meantime, she travels to Norway several times a year to get a picture on site and organise training.<\/p>\n

Successful projects in Norway<\/strong><\/p>\n

Together, the companies have already initiated several successful projects in Norway, including the delivery of a training system for high-voltage technology in electric cars to the Thor Heyerdahl School in Larvik, the F\u00e6rder School in T\u00f8nsberg and the Norwegian Automotive Training Network (Bilfag). \u201cShortly before the pandemic, we organised a two-day training course in Larvik and trained 30 automotive specialists on the theoretical and practical use of the Christiani high-voltage trainer, which can be used to simulate faults in the drive and power supply, among other things. The teachers now act as multipliers and pass on the knowledge they have learned to the trainees,\u201d says Strobel. In addition, activity-based training systems for automation technology are in use in Raufoss, Lillehammer, Kristiansand and Kongsvinger, which teach simple procedures to complex processes according to the principles of Industry 4.0.<\/p>\n

Good cooperation during and after the pandemic<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many teaching institutions were partially closed or allowed only limited contact during the pandemic. \u201cAs we are well equipped digitally in Norway and have built up good business relationships with the relevant stakeholders over the past years, we were able to continue the cooperation without any problems. We have had many digital meetings, but not all systems and learning content can be presented as well digitally as in the classroom,\u201d Ilestad says.<\/p>\n

Next year, more physical training is on the agenda again: in March 2022, an e-mobility event is planned, and in autumn 2022, they plan to participate together as exhibitors at the vocational championships in Kristiansand, hosted by WorldSkills Norway. \u201cAs a trade representative, we naturally also follow how the market is developing. For example, the construction of several battery factories in Norway requires new skills and equipment. This is definitely an area where we will explore further business potential in cooperation with Christiani,\u201d Ilestad explains.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":7869,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[58,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7857","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-europe","category-universal"],"yoast_head":"\nBilateral
