Working on an apprenticeship

One way to find work or learn a new trade is through apprenticeship training. An apprenticeship means that you learn a trade on-the-job at a workplace. You can also include theoretical studies at an educational institution as part of your apprenticeship.

Local government pilot on employment

Together with the City of Vantaa, the City of Kerava participates in a local government pilot on employment, which began on 1 March 2021 and will run until 31 June 2024. 

During the pilot project, certain tasks of Employment and Economic Development Offices (TE Offices) are transferred to local governments. Some customers of TE Office services become customers of the local government pilot and switch to mainly using the employment services of their municipality of residence. Some customers continue as customers of the Uusimaa TE Office.
