Strahlemann Talent Company: A new guide for Losheim's talent!

In Losheim, a new chapter for the professional orientation of young people has recently started. At the end of 2023, the Strahlemann Talent Company opened a specially designed space at the Peter Dewes Community School, which is intended to help students find their future profession. This space is not only modern and functional, but also equipped with current technology that offers students access to important information and resources.

The opening ceremony took place on September 24, 2023 with the lively participation of the students who organized and moderated the program itself. Headmaster Marc-Oliver judge expressed his confidence that the Talent Company will help the students to discover their professional passions. At the event, he spoke to the inspiring words of the Philosophen Confucius: "Choose a profession that you love, then you will never need to work again."

support from regional companies

The concept of the Talent Company goes beyond the provision of a room. It includes close cooperation with regional companies that offer workshops and information events in order to provide young people practical insights into the professional world. Katja Kleser, chair of the association, emphasized the importance of this support for the students and the gratitude for the new partnership.

Myrielle Grass, which is responsible for professional orientation, is particularly pleased with the creation of a place of wellbeing that offers the students a solid basis for important professional decisions. "I hope that with this initiative we can help many young people to find their dream job," said their comment on the opening.

Christian Jöst, board member of the Strahlemann Foundation, underlined the importance of such initiatives for the future of young people: "Children are our future and it is our job as a society to offer them the best possible start in professional life." This is also understood as an answer to the rapidly changing professional world, in which new professions arise and older people disappear.

The Talent Company is supported by the Globus Foundation, which has already launched numerous such projects. Graciela Bruch, the chairwoman of the Globus Foundation, said: "It is an important social task to counter young people in this decisive phase of life."

The Talent Company in Losheim will not only benefit the students, but also help the regional companies to counteract the shortage of skilled workers. District Administrator Daniela Schlegel-Friedrich, who took over the patronage, sees this concept a great opportunity for everyone involved. "The students have the opportunity to design their professional path under optimal conditions," she said.

The school authorities, the district of Merzig-Wadern, support the project, and the necessary technology for the conversion of the former classroom was provided. It remains to be hoped that this initiative will not only motivate the students, but also strengthen the regional economy.
