Finally, they got a theoretical introduction to the Teknik College at Gothenburg Region and the regional Competence Council, a successful collaboration between the business sector, VET providers, Adult Learning Education and the Academy. The teachers were not only interested in the Swedish Education System but also in discussing values, inclusion, STEM/STEAM and Corporate Social Responsibility.
