Gipuzkoa: A Platform with the best of training

Universities are also trying to create closer links with the business world, by encouraging the presence of businessmen and women in their lecture rooms and training periods in companies for their students. This educational scene is completed by a selection of Master's Degrees and Post-Graduate Courses, not to mention the Summer Courses organised by the University of the Basque Country, and their international lecturers. Companies, the Government, and the guipuzcoan society in general keep a close eye on plans for Continuous Training. They also invest strongly in training itself, well aware of the fact that the process of preparing Human Resources requires the continuous updating of techniques and knowledge. The solidity of the guipuzcoan industrial platform would make no sense without correct training at all levels. Gipuzkoa offers one of the best education systems in Spain in this respect, starting from primary school right up to university, passing through prestigious vocational training centres. Companies have always backed the training of future professionals and technicians. Today different sectors finance their own respective Technical Centres due to the fact that they require well-trained professionals. Some of these sectors are Machine-Tool, Paper, Wood, Construction, Graphic Arts, Boilermaking/Welding, etc.
