TAKK

Tampere Adult Education Center

TAKK School (Tampere Adult Education Center) – in Tampere, Finland – was founded in 1962 due to the need to train welders. To date, TAKK is one of the largest vocational schools in Finland, with more than 11 student classes and 20 diverse vocational fields. TAKK is a modern and flexible adult vocational training institution. For more than 50 years, the school has provided the labour market with many human resources in technology, construction, business, information services and specialised services. TAKK’s governing body is Tampere Adult Education Foundation FR.

One of TAKK’s strengths is vocational education for adults, with the average age of students ranging from 25-39 years old. Adult education plays a significant role in Finland and adults are encouraged to attend vocational institutions.

TAKK offers vocational training programmes in various fields based on national standards and the European educational framework, such as  Beauty Care, Building Maintenance Technology, House Construction and Bricklaying, Interior Decoration and Surfacing, Machine Technology, Security, Social and Health Care, Tourism and Catering, Vehicles and Logistics, …

The school recruits students based on the needs of the labour market and orders from businesses. The facility and equipment for training are very modern, designed to simulate the actual working environment. In addition to learning at school, students can gain direct experience (apprenticeship) at enterprises and industrial facilities.

The school’s trainers are required to have professional qualifications, pedagogical skills, and at least 8 years of practical work experience. TAKK won The Vocational Education and Training Quality Award from the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture in 2016 and 2020. The school also met legal accreditation standards by The Finnish Education Evaluation Center FINEEC.

TAKK has been a strategic partner of RAB. Together, RAB and TAKK have been very successful in organizing educational programmes and recruiting motivated vocational students. TAKK is a “bridge” between RAB and Tampere City.
