In English
At Hantverksakademin (The Swedish School of Crafts), we provide modern apprenticeship-based vocational education that combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary skills and business knowledge. Our mission is to preserve and develop craftsmanship while preparing students for today’s labour market and for starting their own businesses.
Structure of the education
Our programs consist of approximately 80% hands-on training at a workplace (the apprenticeship site) and 20% theoretical studies related to the student’s future profession. The theoretical part is conducted in classrooms in Stockholm, but it can also be completed independently online. This means that a student can, in practice, complete the entire education from another location, as long as they have a qualified apprenticeship placement elsewhere in Sweden.
