On Wednesday morning, the Education and Professional Information Mass (BIBI) was opened in the Oberwart exhibition hall. This year, around 80 exhibitors are available to the students. The motto of the fair is: "School, job, career - study or teach?". The event extends over three days and offers a platform for young people to find out about training opportunities.

Among the opening speakers, Education Councilor Daniela Winkler appeared, who emphasized the development of the fair, which was originally started as a pure girl-education fair and now also includes many companies. Your goal is to create a network between the young people, schools and companies. Digitization is changing the training landscape, which requires new skills that must also be taken into account in education.

Oberwart: A Center for Education

Michael Leitgeb, the Vice Mayor of Oberwart, emphasized the importance of the city as a location of education. "We have a colorful mix of schools and offer training positions in various companies, and the municipality itself also trains apprentices," he said. This is shown by the comprehensive offer in Oberwart, which ranges from elementary school to higher schools and will be supplemented in the near future by the educational campus, which will be opened in 2025.

Markus Tuider, the trade fair organizer, explained that the Bibi is geared towards addressing both younger and adult visitors who are interested in new career paths. The fair is intended to promote work and offer an ideal platform to show young people perspectives for the future.

The fair also houses numerous educational institutions, including the Business Campus Oberwart, HTL Pinkafeld and many more. This gives visitors the opportunity to find out more about various training opportunities and to get in touch with potential employers.

apprenticeship as an opportunity and path to success

Several companies are also represented at the fair, including home technology Karner, who has been training apprentices in the second generation since 1987. Andreas Karner emphasizes that the fair is a perfect opportunity to address young people and bring them closer to the importance of teaching as an opportunity. "The important thing is that there is interest and joy in the field of activity," claims Andreas Wirth, President of the Burgenland Chamber of Commerce.

The fair thus has the potential to inspire young people for an apprenticeship and to show them the diverse opportunities of their professional future. Information about the Bibi can also be found on www.meinbezirk.at .

Overall, the educational and professional information fair plays a central role in the networked provision of information and promoting education and training in the Oberwart region.
