The Learning Factory
In view of the increasing prominence of digital skills and use of technology in work and daily life, it is crucial to meet modern digital skills requirements and to reflect the latest technological evolutions in TVET training. As a response, Fagskolen Innlandet TVET School in Norway works closely with regional industry to provide opportunities for TVET students to develop their skills and use modern technology in training. One such example is their partnership with the Manufacturing Technology Norwegian Catapult Centre (MTNC). Thanks to this collaboration, TVET students have access to several mini factories at Raufoss Industrial Park which serve as Learning Factories. This partnership allows the use of the world’s most modern technological equipment for the training of Fagskolen Innlandet’s students at a Learning Factory.
