Safeguarding technical knowhow and experience
In October 2018, Grolsch launched its new occupational training programme: Grolsch Craftsman. A large number of employees from the Packaging department is currently enrolled in this course, which takes several months. They are taught by the ROC van Twente, and at the end of the course, they will be able to obtain a Process Operator A qualification. Grolsch predicts that there will be a shortage of well-trained technical staff in the future, and by offering both a job and an education, the brewer hopes to get its own employees, flexible employees and potential new employees to fall in love with the profession. ‘Grolsch Craftsman’ is part of the “Brewing Perspectives” programme, which sees Grolsch take an active approach to safeguarding technical knowhow and experience.
