PETRATEX: A LAUNCH RAMP FOR EMPLOYMENT

PETRATEX was founded in 1989.

Its long implementation in the market has allowed it to acquire a leading position in the world of textile manufacturing, but also to create a strong identity as a center of knowledge and training, fostering an innovative educational dimension in the industry. In partnership with MODATEX and the Penafiel Employment Center, PETRATEX defines itself, once again, as an innovative player, through the creation of a project in the field of training oriented towards the Textile Industry.

The aim of this project was to give young people the opportunity to be part of an integrated training strategy and acquire a set of skills aligned with the needs of the market and the company, which will facilitate their integration into the job market.

The course used the modular training method, with a total of 695 hours of training, divided into three different modules. Since it was taught in-house and included various learning tools that could be used by the trainees, the course gave them the chance to experience closer interaction with other Petratex workers and managers.

An internship at PETRATEX is a unique experience and an open door to a new job!
