Today’s competition task at Sweden’s national skills competition, focused on cameras and and wedding planning. The task went well, and we were especially grateful for the valuable feedback from the judges. We received many useful points for our training, which we can apply as we continue our preparation for Worldskills Shanghai. It is a pleasure to be part of such a well-organised competition.

Tack för en lärorik dag – vi fortsätter i morgon!
