Production colleges in Denmark
If you are under 25, have not completed a youth education programme and need time to think about your future career, you can be accepted into a production college. There are about 100 production colleges dotted around the country. They are very different in nature but comprise various workshop activities and general subject tuition. Students work in production and solve assignments with the aim of selling what they produce. You have to apply to the college to be accepted, and your municipal authority Youth Education Guidance Service* has to approve your stay there.
Basic vocational education and training scheme (egu)
Municipal authorities must provide a special basic vocational education and training scheme for young people under 30 living in the authority who have experienced difficulty finding employment or education.
Egu is a practical training scheme aimed at helping participants find work or pursuing further education. The course normally lasts two years and consists of college tuition and practical training. It is tailored to the needs and preferences of the individual and the employment and practical training opportunities in the local area.
Following agreement with municipal authorities, production and vocational colleges can provide egu courses.
