Connecting Blue Skills and Dual Training Programmes Through Youth Guarantee System

Since 2016, the Balearic Islands Employment Service (SOIB) has been developing a Dual Training Programme focused on the Blue Economy for youth eligible for the Youth Guarantee System. It aims to qualify unemployed youth (aged 16- 29) using apprenticeship contracts in collaboration with local Blue Economy companies and Vocational Education Training (VET) centres in the field of nautical maintenance, engineering, painting and maritime carpentry.
