What our trainees say

“Through the dual training program at our company, I have the opportunity to perfectly combine theory and practice, as the knowledge we learn in school is reinforced here. By working independently, I can already prepare for my future career while still in training and thus develop skills such as self-directed work.“

- Johanna
Apprentice Technical Product Designer

“Thanks to my training at MiniTec, I’ve been able to grow personally and expand my knowledge in the field of metalworking. I’m also thrilled by the varied tasks I’m able to tackle on my own and the creativity I can freely express in the process. Not to mention the positive work environment that prevails throughout the company.“
