PM Life, a new training initiative aimed at helping to develop a skilled Powder Metallurgy workforce, is expected to launch in 2018. The programme will be organised by the European Powder Metallurgy Association (EPMA), with support from a number of partners in industry and academia.
The course will be run over five weeks, which can be taken consecutively or separately, with an optional internship at a Powder Metallurgy company. Full details have yet to be announced, but the organisers have listed the following topics and locations:
- Powder & hard metal, Goteburg, Sweden

According to the EPMA, PM Life will offer participants the choice to attend either the full programme or only those training sessions relevant to their field.
