From Fundació we have once again collaborated with the 6th edition of Advanced Factories in order to bring VET centers to one of the leading events in automotion and industrial innovation. The edition has been very successful, with 351 exhibiting companies, more than 20.000 participants and 295 international experts.
Together with the Department of Education and Advanced Factories, we have participated in the launch of the Factories of the Future Awards for Innovative Vocational Training Projects to recognize the work of the centers in the training of industry talent. At this year’s Awards Gala, the three winning centers have been:
- Alt Penedès center, from Vilafranca del Penedès
- Institut La Pineda, from Badalona
- Institut FP Sant Cugat
On the last day at the Talent Marketplace, we participated in the session Advanced Vocational Training Experiences for the 4.0 Industry, in which these two were presented:
- Talent for Industry 4.0: Specialization course in intelligent manufacturing and NEW specialization course in additive manufacturing by Sergio Gómez, deputy director of the Escola del Treball Institute.
- Kart Project to compete in Euskelec: This is a championship of electric vehicles designed and built by students from vocational training centers. By Jordi Clua, professor of mechanical manufacturing at Institut Mare de Déu de la Mercè, BCN (@mercelekt).
Congratulations to all the winners!
Thank you very much and congratulations to all the Advanced Factories team for the success achieved!
