During your apprenticeship, you will have the opportunity to apply for an international exchange program at one of our locations. During your stay abroad, which lasts several weeks, you will get to know other cultures, improve your foreign language skills and gain your first international work experience.
International exchange
Our over 150 locations are spread all over the world. If you take part in our exchange program, you’ll gain international experience, discover new countries, cultures and languages – both during and after your apprenticeship. A valuable enrichment for your professional and personal development – contact us!
Your international exchange
“During my apprenticeship as a business administrator, I had the opportunity to spend two months at our overseas plant in Medina (USA). The Apprentice Exchange Program allowed me to gain valuable experience, get to know a new work culture, and, of course, improve my English skills. I also learned to manage my daily life independently. This time had a lasting impact on me, both personally and professionally.”
Scholarship: Mission possible!
Once you have successfully completed your apprenticeship, you will have the opportunity to work at one of our international locations for six months. The aim is to get to know new people, countries and cultures, develop an understanding of other people’s ways of working and discover the joy of lifelong learning.
"I applied for the scholarship because I was particularly interested in getting to know new people and foreign cultures. Through the stay abroad, I was able to improve my English skills and gain valuable experience from which I still benefit in my professional life today."
