SYSLAB became internationally known for its break-through methods and
exceptionally good results. In 1996 the Concept was licensed to CESI –
the largest French private/public industrial education foundation.
SYSLAB units were established in Paris, Bordeaux, Aix-en-Provence and
Montpellier. In 1997 additional units were established in Arboga and
Enköping, two Swedish towns were industrial restructuring (automotive
and telecom) resulted in increased unemployment of elderly skilled
workers. At this time we participated in a networking project under the
Leonardo da Vinci Programme, with Austrian, French, Spanish and Swedish
partners.
Since 1999 we have by license agreement established SYSLAB units in
Fryazino, Pushkino and Lubertse, three former Science Cities in Moscow
Oblast. Here we co-operate with Moscow Regional Employment Service,
United Nations Development Programme and the Norwegian Government.
In 2002 a new SYSLAB unit was established in Visaginas, Lithuania, in
conjunction with decommissioning of Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant. Here
some 5.000 highly qualified workers will have to find new jobs over the
next five to ten years. In Lithuania we work closely with UNDP, the
Lithuanian Ministry of Economy, Labour Market Authorities and the
Norwegian Government.
