CEO at Central Educational Center (CEC)

FROM: The Three C's of Battery Success: Capacity, Competence, and Competitiveness in the U.S. Market "Connections to local education networks will be key to the success of the Gigafactory, and this points to the second critical element in FREYR’s long-term vision: developing a competent workforce. In Norway, FREYR was central in Battkomp, a collaborative project facilitated by Norwegian Industry (part of The Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise) to build battery competence and training. As part of Battkomp, FREYR has worked closely with both industrial actors and educational institutions to develop the national framework for skills for a new industry and more specifically developing short modules and longer conversion courses for several schools.   Building on this success, FREYR has now also formed local partnerships with educational services such as Georgia’s Central Educational Center — a joint venture program between high schools, colleges, and businesses designed to train a workforce for success in local industry. The company is also partnering with the Technical College System of Georgia, whose rise in recent enrollments can be attributed to recent manufacturing investments in the region." ======================================= The excerpt above, from FREYR's article of May 10, 2024, points to the privilege Central Educational Center enjoys to benefit our students, our businesses, and our entire community via this new partnership with FREYR....a world leader in a rapidly emerging technology.
