Description of the Organisation:
The purpose of Suomen Oppisopimusosaajat ry is to develop and promote the quality of Finnish apprenticeship training and to increase the number of apprenticeships. The benefit of Finnish apprenticeship training is its practical working life orientation and excellent employment rate. Apprenticeship training in Finland is a form of work-based learning which is possible to arrange for both young persons and adults. The employment rate for both young persons and adults completing apprenticeship training is significantly higher than for other types of VET qualifications. The association promotes quality competence in apprenticeship training for secondary vocational education institutions and promotes cooperation between members of the association. Suomen Oppisopimusosaajat ry wants to cooperate with European countries and make apprenticeships flexible in Europe.
