Four of our trainees are now training ambassadors!

We are very pleased that four of our trainees – Lea Krakau, Jana Kolde, Massimilian Schrul, and Jan-Paul Haß – have successfully been trained as training ambassadors.

What is a training ambassador?

Training ambassadors are trainees who provide practical insights about their apprenticeship to students. During school visits or job fairs, they offer insights into their professional daily life, explain the path to their apprenticeship, and answer questions – honestly, authentically, and on equal terms. The goal is to help young people with their career orientation and to raise awareness of the dual apprenticeship.

The training for training ambassadors

Our four apprentices participated in a special training organized by the responsible Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK). In this one-day training, they were prepared on how to present their apprenticeship interestingly, which topics are particularly relevant for students, and how to confidently and securely handle groups.

“The training placed a lot of emphasis on approaching each other openly. This will particularly help us in our future assignments to communicate successfully with the students,” said Jana Kolde, apprentice to become an industrial clerk.

How does an assignment go?

When an assignment comes about – for example, through a school or as part of a career orientation event – our training ambassadors prepare individually: They share first-hand accounts of their apprenticeship, everyday life in the company, and experiences from school and practice. The visits usually last 45–90 minutes and are often conducted in teams.

We are excited about the first assignment!

We are proud of the commitment of our four trainees and look forward to accompanying them soon on their first assignment as training ambassadors. Through their efforts, they make a valuable contribution to promoting young talent and strengthening apprenticeships.
