Empowering the Green Transition: Aprendio's Comprehensive Approach to Bridging the Competence Gap

As we accelerate the green transition, flexible learning systems and lifelong learning will be crucial in securing a just transition and combatting the lack of skilled labour. By 2030, there will be a substantial increase in the demand for skilled labour for the green transition, however, in Denmark and in Europe, labour pools will not be able to meet the demand. There will be a severe shortage of skilled employees, including already scarce trades such as plumbers, welders, engineers, electricians, and machinists.  

The lack of labour not only hinders the required transition but also puts society at a disadvantage in terms of both economic inefficiency and climate change. As a result, there is a growing understanding that the lack of skills represents a significant "implementation gap" in the green transition. 

According to last week’s article published in Børsen, the Danish Minister of the Environment, Magnus Heunicke, and the CEO of Grundfos, Poul Due Jensen, agree that the way we educate must change to prevent the green transition from stalling. They argue that the green transition is not a matter of course, but a political choice that requires skilled workers to bring about.

This is where Aprendio can help.
