ELLB - European Learning Lab Battery Cells by Fraunhofer FFB

Immerse yourself in the world of batteries with us and discover the right course for you. Whether you are a battery expert, an interested professional from another field, a specialist, a student or a trainee - everyone will find the right course and lots of background knowledge on the subject of batteries. We are part of the battery cell research project "FoFeBat" in Münster funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and are working together with many Fraunhofer institutes, universities and industrial partners on a major goal: the establishment of the European Learning Lab Battery Cells ELLB - a lively community with a wide range of innovative upskilling and reskilling offers on the subject of batteries, which is playing its part in actively shaping and advancing qualification in the battery sector in Europe.

Visit us online in the Battery Campus (available soon) or on site in Münster! 

Our philosophy:

• Close cooperation on a European level
• Iterative exchange with industry partners during the development of the curriculum 
• Agile approach to address changes in the market and quickly create added value
• The learning lab as a nucleus, embedded in a high-level competence network
• Inclusion of the production lines, for example through augmented reality applications
• Innovative possibilities in training and curriculum
• Innovative learning environments based on the new-work-principle
• Virtually interconnected learning, targeted use of smart learning technologies 

The rapid upscaling of battery cell production in Europe offers numerous growth opportunities, but also leads to large skill gaps: By 2030, several hundred thousand battery experts will be needed along the entire value chain. With suitable training and further education opportunities for specialists and managers, we offer private individuals and companies the chance to profit from this rapid growth. The possibilities are extensive: whether it's retraining employees from other technology areas (for example, from the field of the combustion engine) or the more in-depth qualification of employees in areas such as digitalization (for example, automation of production processes) - they all contribute to sustainable competitiveness in the battery market. 

Become part of the ELLB community, discover our upskilling and reskilling offers and gain unique insights into one of the most modern and largest research institution for battery cell production in Europe! Together we will contribute to transform Germany and Europe into a battery hotspot and thus drive the energy transition as an answer to the climate crisis.
