Tækninæmi

Tækninæmi is a term used in Iceland to describe a period of vocational training or apprenticeship within a technical field. These programs are designed to provide practical, hands-on experience and specialized skills necessary for employment in various technical industries. Tækninæmi typically involves a combination of theoretical instruction and practical work experience, often in collaboration with companies and educational institutions.
