Summary/Abstract: The Chamber of Industry and Commerce in Lublin was established in 1929. It did not run any educational institutions on its own, yet it supported (financially and organisationally) schools in the Voivodeships (regions) of Lublin and Volhynia, especially the Vetter Secondary School for Boys and the Syroczyński School of Crafts and Industry. The Chamber approved draft education acts for the Ministry of Denominations and Public Education, cooperated with Lublin Education Authority, awarded scholarships and grantsfor schools, and delegated its representatives to school councils. An interesting educational project was the psycho-technical laboratory.
