Summary/Abstract: Engineering companies in Slovakia raise the alarm. The situation with the young generation, which would be interested in the technique, is alarming. Young people are not interested in technical studies, moreover they do not show interest even to increase their qualifications free of charge. Based on the request from PPS Group a.s. in Detva, for which it is particularly important the will to work and develop skills in the engineering production, a survey of involvement and success rate of free welding course offered for young and new employees was conducted. The course was offered for people, who could not get back into the labor market for a longer time or who were interested in qualification change. It was also offered to the pupils after completing primary education as well as graduates of the United Secondary School in Detva. After completing the basic welding course, the graduates were given the opportunity to work in the aforementioned PPS Group a.s that was willing to pay for the basic welding course and open the door to the new and young generation.
