The goal of the partnership is to make SSG’s courses more accessible to companies and professionals in Finland, while at the same time enabling Lappia Education Ltd to strengthen its already broad range of training programs within industry and technology.

“We see the collaboration with Lappia Education Ltd as a natural step in our Nordic strategy. Together, we can reach even more companies and contribute to a safer and more sustainable industrial sector. Working together with local partners in this way is something we at SSG will do to an even greater extent going forward,” says Jaakko Antikainen, Country Manager at SSG Finland.

For Lappia Education Ltd, the partnership means the opportunity to offer its customers high-quality courses from a well-established player in the Swedish industrial market.

 “The background of this collaboration is the need to respond to the changing demands of working life, especially in situations where Finnish companies are entering the Swedish industrial sector. In Sweden, SSG’s safety training is the industry standard, and now we have the opportunity to offer both students and companies training that is recognized on both sides of the border. SSG’s trainings are digital and multilingual, which supports Lappia Education Ltd’s goal of developing flexible and accessible training solutions,” says Jari Iisakka, CEO of Lappia Education Ltd.

SSG’s courses, currently used by hundreds of thousands of professionals in Sweden and internationally, include topics such as workplace environment and safety.

“For the industry, this is a win-win: Lappia Education Ltd’s customers gain access to a proven training portfolio, and SSG gains a strong local partner with in-depth market knowledge,” concludes Jaakko Antikainen.
