Experts in demand

The industry is struggling with a shortage of skilled workers, especially with the mega-trend of digitalisation. A huge number of new digital solutions need to be developed. There are a lot of career changers in the development teams because you can’t study “Digital Engineering” yet. That is why I am very pleased that we are training the engineers for the digital economy of tomorrow.
