Vienna needs apprentices: This is how companies can get started!

The Viennese apprenticeship advisors celebrate successes and strengthen training in Vienna! Walter Ruck, President of the Vienna Chamber of Commerce, emphasizes: "The economy needs skilled workers. If you train them yourself, you don't have to worry about having qualified employees." The Viennese apprenticeship advisors have been committed to training young apprentices for 20 years, and their track record is impressive. Last year, 5,000 companies were contacted, resulting in the issuance of 685 new training permits. In total, the consultants have reached over 73,000 companies since 2004 and have created more than 13,300 assessment notices that enable companies to train apprentices, reports OTS.

The project includes support in multiple languages, including German, English, Turkish, Polish and Serbian/Bosnian/Croatian. The advice is free and is offered directly in the companies. Fritz Meißl, managing director of waff, emphasizes that many companies only find out about funding opportunities through apprenticeship advisors. The costs for the first apprentice's income are completely covered. This aims to offer young Viennese a positive professional future. In addition, training companies receive comprehensive support with legal questions and other challenges in order to optimize the training process.
