FEX - get ready for the
stewardship
FEX is our most qualified training for you as a future manager who wants to lead the work successfully through a safe and conscious approach.
The training includes a total of five course weeks, spread over time and at different locations in the Nordic region, where study visits are an important part of each course week. The purpose of the course is to prepare you for the role of person responsible for the manufacture of explosives in the Nordic region, which in Sweden is called a manager. FEX gives you a broad knowledge in most areas you can think of, where we go through everything from explosives knowledge to media training and the important leadership, so that you are prepared for what the managerial role can mean. The explosives sector in the Nordic countries is relatively small but faces similar security challenges. Therefore, we see a strong network as key to success and development, both during and after training.

The five course weeks are spread out over time and in different locations in the Nordic countries and include overnight stays. To ensure the safety of our members, we do not go public with the exact locations. What you can be sure of is that we always choose each location with love and warmth to create a positive and engaging atmosphere for our participants.
