    Future specialists receive solid theoretical and on-the-job training. The organizations located at Erfurt Südost join forces in educational programs such as the multi-company training course for microtechnologists.

    Jobseeker qualification programs deliver even more valuable human resources. In programs funded by the Federal Employment Agencies, eligible specialists can seek new, market-driven qualifications that meet the companies' needs. One training center is already located at Erfurt Südost; more are scattered throughout the city.
