Together with our partner Ostseestaal GmbH & Co. KG, we are launching a new project focused on preserving and transferring critical expertise from experienced employees before retirement.

Supported through the ESF Plus Programme of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the initiative helps us safeguard valuable know-how and strengthen the next generation of professionals.

In engineering and manufacturing, some of the most valuable knowledge is not written down in manuals or procedures, it is gained through years of hands-on experience, problem-solving, and collaboration. As experienced employees approach retirement, preserving this expertise becomes essential for ensuring continuity, innovation, and long-term competitiveness.

Through this project, we will develop structured approaches to capture practical knowledge, facilitate intergenerational learning, and support the transfer of expertise within our organizations. Together with Ostseestaal GmbH & Co. KG, we are committed to turning experience into sustainable knowledge and creating strong foundations for future generations of engineers and specialists.

We are grateful for the support provided through the ESF Plus Programme and look forward to contributing to workforce development, skills retention, and knowledge transfer in our industry.

We look forward to turning experience into lasting knowledge and shaping the future together.
