Schmalz wins award for outstanding support of students

The Dual Partner Award evaluates outstanding programs and concepts for dual students. Schmalz impressed the jury with its excellent implementation in the areas of theory-practice transfer, integration of students into the company and further development and integration after the Bachelor's degree. The vacuum specialist from Glatten already won the award in 2017.

"At Schmalz, we see the promotion of young talent as the key to the future of our company," emphasizes Daniel Just, Head of Human Resources at Schmalz. "Our aim is to provide students with the best possible support on their way into the world of work. The award shows that we are doing this well."

This is also evident in the personal support and further development of aspiring talents at Schmalz. Daniel Just explains: "At Schmalz, students are supported and encouraged through reflection meetings with their trainers and are guided and supervised by learning coaches." During their practical phases, students are given the opportunity to work in various areas of the company and are actively involved in daily processes.

Each student spends a practical phase in one of the 30 international subsidiaries abroad to develop their intercultural skills. The final thesis is written in the transfer department to ensure seamless integration into their future working areas. After graduation, Schmalz opens up a wide range of opportunities for a career as a specialist or manager.

With the Dual Partner Award, the DHBW recognizes Schmalz's commitment to the professional development of young talents and sets standards in dual training.
