Example of a career path
In the Netherlands, an example of a careerpath in production can be as follows:
You start as a third operator with an MBO 3 Vapro B diploma. You can then progress to the position of second operator with an MBO 3 Vapro B/C diploma. After that, you can become a first operator with an MBO 3/4 Vapro B/C diploma. The next step is senior operator with an MBO 4 Vapro C diploma and you then advance to shift coordinator with an MBO 4 Vapro C diploma. After that, you can become production lead and, ultimately, a plant manager.
Depending on the size of our plants and sites, there may be differences in the training required.
