The company is an active participant in the “Careers in Western Norway” trainee scheme run by the organisation Framtidsfylket. The scheme has proved successful for Fjord1, which has offered several of the trainees a permanent position on completion of their one-year traineeship. 

Fjord1 also partners with external bodies, such as the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration (NAV), to offer tailored work training placements. 

Sondre Austrheim, trainee in Fjord1 2017/2018:

“As a trainee in the technical department at Fjord1, I got to participate in an innovative and highly interdisciplinary environment, which was extremely educational and engaging! In a company that leads the field in the use of zero-emission technology, I experienced a steep learning curve and exciting work assignments. In combination with the trainee programme, this was a great start to working life,” says Sondre Austreim.
