On September 21st, I had the opportunity to attend the inauguration of Gremibaix Foundation\u2019s new training classrooms at the ProCornell\u00e0 Business Incubator. This expansion represents more than just an upgrade to facilities; it is a statement of intent regarding the future of industrial trades and the urgent need for skilled talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event brought together public authorities, organizations, and companies that share a common vision:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Training must be aligned with real employment opportunities and the needs of the productive sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the event, a point I have long advocated for was highlighted: Vocational Training (FP) and workforce training are strategic tools for anticipating labor market shifts\u2014particularly in sectors where technology, AI, and the energy transition are transforming professional roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new classrooms\u2014covering electricity, welding, refrigeration systems, and administrative training\u2014will add over 60 annual training spots and strengthen a training model that is more practical, specialized, and closely linked to the business world. This is precisely what industrial trades need to continue growing and attract new talent, especially among young people and women seeking genuine opportunities for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I take away three key ideas from the event:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connecting people and companies: training to meet real talent needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anticipating technological transformation: updating skills to avoid falling behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Promoting industrial career paths: opening doors for those wishing to redirect their professional lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inauguration also served as a look toward the future: on October 6th, iFormaci\u00f3<\/em>\u2014the new Vocational Training Center for Industrial Trades in Catalonia\u2014will be unveiled. This initiative pools the efforts of trade associations to train the professionals the industry requires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is another step forward in strengthening vocational training, elevating the status of skilled trades, and creating real opportunities for both individuals and local businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
