New hydrogen economy training

Hydrogen plays an important role in the green transition from fossil fuels towards renewable energy production. While education in Finland on the hydrogen economy currently falls between different programmes and individual courses, the new project organised by the Finnish Institute of Technology (FITech) network brings together the educational offering that has so far been scattered.

The main target group of the education is the staff of the member companies of Hydrogen Cluster Finland. The cluster involves more than 60 companies and six industry associations. It is open to and suitable for other companies, decision-makers, and students.

An English-language study module of approximately 20-40 ECTS consists of a comprehensive introductory course on hydrogen economy and several optional advanced courses. The education is implemented largely online, and more courses will be started during this year.

The education project is coordinated by Aalto University, and the universities of the FITech network are jointly responsible for the preparation and implementation of the education.

FITech offers selected studies from all of Finland's universities of technology. The studies are open and free of charge for all Finnish citizens and permanent residents of Finland. fitech.io
