The 12 criteria

The basis of the training promise of all participating companies is a serious decision: We don't just want to be a good training company, we want to be a TOP training company. And to ensure that this claim can be verified, there are 12 criteria that all trainees can rely on:

The basis

1. There is a fixed contact person for the trainees in the company.
2. Apprentices are paid in line with the collective agreement. The company keeps an hourly account.
3. The company provides exemplary equipment with weatherproof clothing, personal protective equipment and a trainee toolbox

The way

4. The trainer and boss make time for regular apprentice meetings. The training plan is discussed in detail twice a year.
5. The use of feedback forms for trainees makes it easier to share praise and criticism and to learn from it.

The team

6. Joint activities are offered for the trainees. Trainee days or specialist excursions promote team building.
7. The trainees also get to know other partner companies during a two-week trainee exchange.

Awakening independence

8. Apprentices are given their own areas of responsibility in the workshop, yard and outdoor facilities, which they manage independently.
9. A trainee construction site or a special trainee project in the 3rd year of training offers the opportunity to try out independent work.

Promoting development

10. The company actively promotes professional development through additional learning opportunities and practical exercises.
11. Regular plant tests promote the trainees' plant knowledge and contribute to good examination results.
12. The trainers take part in annual training courses offered by the initiative or the VGL.
