The Seine-Nord Europe Canal project represents 6000 jobs at the peak of construction, including approximately 3000 new positions . Nearly 30 professions have been identified as "in high demand," meaning they have significant workforce needs that cannot be fully met by current employees.
Recruitment of recently trained people will therefore be carried out for various jobs to dig the Canal, build the structures or restore the roads.
The Hauts-de-France Region , which manages the Canal Formation program, funds more than 80 professional training courses that provide access to careers in the Canal sector . Job seekers, people in job training programs, and those retraining are all eligible to benefit now, preparing them to apply for the increased job opportunities expected from 2024 onwards.
Spread across the Region, these courses are mostly accessible to the widest possible audience and combine on-site learning and company internships.
