On Wednesday, May 15, 2024, the parents' evening of W. Althaus AG took place, aimed at giving parents and apprentices from the 1st and 2nd year of training a better insight into the company and its training methods.

Roland Rebecchi (Head of Vocational Training) opened the event with a warm welcome. He emphasized the importance of training young people and the responsibility W. Althaus AG takes on as a training company. In his speech, he highlighted the company’s long-standing tradition and commitment to vocational education.

Following this, Marco Schneider (Managing Director / CEO) of W. Althaus AG took the floor. He presented important data and facts about the company to the attendees, focusing particularly on the question: "Why does W. Althaus AG train young apprentices?"

He explained why supporting young apprentices is crucial for the future of W. Althaus AG and how the various training programs are designed to best prepare the apprentices for their future careers.

After the introductory speeches, the parents were divided into different groups. The apprentices and employees then guided the groups to various presentation stations covering the following topics:

  • Basic training for automation technicians and automation assemblers
  • Specialized training in software, CAD, and control system construction
  • Activity field: Warehouse / Logistics

The participants gained insights into the basics of automation and logistics training. Our apprentices demonstrated practical examples to illustrate the diversity and requirements of the profession.

To conclude the event, W. Althaus AG invited everyone to a relaxed gathering. During the aperitif, all participants had the opportunity to exchange ideas, ask questions, and provide feedback.

W. Althaus AG thanks all participants for their attendance and looks forward to continuing to support young professionals in its training programs.

It's that time again: The new apprentices have been welcomed at W. Althaus AG. Seven motivated young people started their professional lives on August 2. This year, the group consists of four automation technicians, one automation technician, one logistician, and one commercial apprentice.

The first week served as an introductory week. During this time, the young professionals got to know their training company and its employees and were introduced to their new working environment. This year, W. Althaus AG also conducted the "Apprentice Inside" day. On this outing, which was exclusively for apprentices, they had the opportunity to exchange ideas with their peers and gather tips for their training.

Since the "Surprise Day" was very well received last year, it couldn’t be missed this year. Once again, the excursion destination was the Forum Sumiswald. The first and fourth-year apprentices were able to challenge themselves in archery, climbing, pétanque, and bowling.

W. Althaus AG wishes the five automation apprentices Enrico, Noémie, Tim, Timon, and Remo, the commercial apprentice Alain, and the logistics apprentice Djark a great start to their professional lives and much success and joy in their training.
