Continuing professional development – also called CPD – can be relevant for employees who want to develop their work skills. It may also be obvious to further train selected staff, for example if an employee is to be promoted to a management position, but lacks a theoretical and/or practical basis.
In this connection, we have prepared an article that contains 4 different continuing educational courses that you can offer your employee.
AMU courses – also called labour market education – are intended for both unskilled and skilled employees. The teaching is a combination of practical teaching and theory and can be studied fulltime or parttime.
All AMU courses are competenceproviding and a number of the programmes also provide credit for vocational training. Students who complete an AMU course receive an education certificate for the course in question.
AMU courses are offered at various educational institutions in the country, for example in Aarhus and Copenhagen.
The HD degree is a business economics parttime education that is obvious for employees who need to strengthen their understanding of business economics. The education is divided into 2 parts, namely HD 1st part and HD 2nd part. Depending on the educational background of your employees, they can start HD part 1 or HD part 2.
In the HD part 1, your employees acquire a basic understanding of business economics and learn, among other things, on micro and macroeconomics, organisational theory and commercial law. On HD 2nd part, the employee can specialise in a number of fields, e.g. finance. A number of the HD 2nd part programmes give access to a master's course. However, it should be noted that the HD program is not originally intended for the students to continue on the Master's programme.
The HD programmes are offered by various universities in the country, for example in Aarhus and Copenhagen. It is also worth mentioning that the training is also offered as an online course, which may be relevant for employees who are stationed abroad, for example.
Many Danish educational institutions also offer individual subjects that may be relevant for the individual employee. Here we can mention "supply chain management", if the employee works with logistics, or "Python programming", if the employee has a working day that involves coding.
Another way in which your employees can improve their skills further is through courses. It can be, for example, courses that deal with digital marketing, but it can also be a training course that equips employees to take on a leadership role.

The above continuing education for employees typically costs money. In addition, the company may also risk losing resources on days when the employee should have worked, but is for teaching. Here, your workplace can in some cases apply for the Danish VEU compensation.
Your workplace can receive a VEU compensation as compensation when your employees participate in vocational training and receive wages during the training. You can also receive a grant for transport to cover the employee's transportation costs.
You can apply for VEU compensation when you register your employee for a course at voksenuddannelse.dk.
There are a number of conditions that must be met before you can be granted VEU compensation, for example:
You cannot apply for VEU compensation if your employee receives training at the weekend and usually has the weekend off. This also applies if the teaching is held on public holidays or other days when the employee has time off. This is because your company does not suffer loss of wages or work.
