This week, the University of Oldenburg is welcoming 20 young people who are starting an apprenticeship at the university. "As one of the largest employers in the region, the university also offers exciting prospects in vocational training, for example in technology, administration and skilled trades," said Jörg Stahlmann, Vice President for Administration and Finance, at the official introduction. Entering the world of work is one of the most important steps for young people and young adults. "That's why we attach great importance to a diverse and well-founded education," Stahlmann continued. The university is looking forward to supporting the new apprentices in the workshops, laboratories and offices. This also contributes to the development of skilled labour.

This year, two IT specialists, two precision mechanics and three electronics technicians for devices and systems are starting their training. The university is also training one pool attendant, two gardeners, three administrative assistants, three media and information services specialists and two image and sound media designers.
