New information regarding applications for English-language vocational programs in Mechanical Engineering and Production Technology (Machinist, Plater–welder).
The employment situation in the Vaasa region has changed over the past year. There are currently many unemployed job seekers in our area who are in need of training opportunities within vocational education.
The English-language Mechanical Engineering and Production Technology training is a suitable option for many of these individuals.
For this reason, we have decided that the Machinist and Plater–welder programs will be offered through Vamia’s continuous application process. This means that the application process is primarily intended for local applicants and does not mainly target international applicants from outside the EU/EEA countries.
Please note that the application for international applicants for Mechanical Engineering and Production Technology (Machinist, Plater–welder) will not open in November 2025.
According to the new plan, the application period will open for local applicants in spring 2026. The programs starts in August 2026 as planned.
