New rules for training in maritime crafts
Official title (in Danish): Bekendtgørelse om erhvervsuddannelsen i maritime håndværksfag
In short
Reading time: 1 min- What changes:
- The training gets a new purpose clause.
- The goals and requirements for the basic course, basic subjects, certificates and credit transfer are now set out in a training scheme instead of in the executive order itself and its annex.
- The final exam is still a journeyman's exam, which the school holds in consultation with the subject committee.
- What is new is that the exam is organised as set out in the training scheme.
- Who: The rules apply to those training in maritime crafts: boatbuilders and sailmakers who are apprentices or trainees on the programme. Apprentices and trainees who started on or moved to the training before the executive order enters into force follow the rules that applied until then.
- When: The executive order entered into force on 1 August 2026.
