Does your company have work to do but not enough people to do it? If you need new employees, remember to check out the current labour market training. You may find the people you need among the participants. It is also possible to achieve various licences and permits through TE Services as labour market training. RekryKoulutus (‘recruitment training’) is a good option for employers who have trouble finding competent employees and no new experts are expected to graduate in the company’s field in the near future.

Through change training, the company can support the opportunities of those who are made redundant to be employed elsewhere or the ability of workers who are laid off to transfer to other positions in the company. The training is also suitable for times when staff are temporarily laid off and it is not certain if they can go back to work.
The training is tailored to the needs of the students, and its student selections and funding are managed jointly by the employer and the employment and economic development administration.
