Over 70 Apprentices and Students Join the Arburg Family
A total of 77 new apprentices and students from the Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW) began their training at Arburg on 1 September 2021.
This number underlines the high value that the well-founded and triple-certified training has for the Lossburg mechanical engineering company. For more than 70 years, the family-owned company has been making sustainable investments in its future. Renate Keinath, who, as Managing Partner, is responsible for human resources management, warmly welcomed the new trainees and students on behalf of the shareholders and managing directors, the entire team of trainers and all employees.
“Employees with first-class training and a broad range of specialist knowledge are very important for Arburg‘s innovative strength and international competitiveness,” said Renate Keinath in her address and emphasised: “Giving young people a successful start to their careers is not something that can be taken for granted by many companies in these times of the coronavirus. We, on the other hand, continue to train unabated!”
Latest machine and learning technology
Thanks to the innovative and triple-certified training system, the 16-strong team of trainers led by Training Manager Michael Vieth can react flexibly to the respective requirements even in difficult times. Basic training takes place in the 2,000-square-meter Vocational Training Center with modern machinery and learning technology. The method of action-oriented teaching and learning is brand new from this year. Innovative learning methods included homeschooling during the coronavirus pandemic.
“Despite the many advantages that digital communication and working from home bring, personal contacts are still important and need to be maintained and extended,” Renate Keinath encouraged the new training cohort. This also includes going through the various departments during the training and working there.
An exciting induction week
Arburg makes it easier for the newcomers to get started with an exciting introductory week: this allows them to get to know both the company and each other – in compliance with the hygiene concept, of course. For example, in the company, this is followed by plant tours, a presentation of the Arburg product portfolio, and an introduction to the individual departments. In addition, Michael Vieth and the team of instructors organised team-building events and an off-site barbecue.

Arburg even plans to take on more than 100 new trainees and DHBW students in 2022. The spectrum includes, for example, DHBW degree programs in industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, mechatronics, (business) IT, as well as commercial and technical professions such as mechatronics engineer, process mechanic, industrial mechanic, industrial clerk, or technical product designer. New additions include machining mechanics and warehouse logistics specialists. Applications can already be submitted now.
