More than 1,700 young people will begin their professional careers at Siemens in the new 2025 training year at 18 training centers across Germany. Siemens is a pioneer in work-study programs, focused on digital expertise, the responsible utilization of AI, and the creation of a clear value compass. The company provides targeted training programs to prepare the young people of Gen Z for the working world of tomorrow.
“Education is the key to innovative power, sustainable progress, and social cohesion. This generation of young talent also wants to work independently today, develop themselves further, and feel that what they do has a purpose. That’s why we at Siemens foster not only digital expertise but also fundamental competencies such as critical thinking and problem-solving – for people who want to actively shape today’s transformation,” explained Judith Wiese, Chief People and Sustainability Officer, member of the Managing Board, and Labor Director of Siemens.
Professional training at Siemens is rigorously oriented toward the requirements of the digital future. Advanced learning platforms and immersive technologies, such as virtual and augmented reality, as well as innovative teaching methods and entrepreneurial thinking, strengthen training in the digital age. Topics such as AI, data analytics, IoT, cybersecurity, and the circular economy are integrated along the entire education chain. Generative AI is increasingly important: Siemens conveys AI to its trainees as an interdisciplinary topic and empowers them to use AI tools efficiently, securely, and responsibly.
“To keep pace with today’s rapid technological transformation, education has to become more and more a dynamic, future-oriented ecosystem in which learners, teachers, educational institutions, and other relevant organizations successfully network and exchange ideas,” emphasized Bettina Weckesser, head of training at Siemens worldwide. “That’s why we’re fostering learning in the ecosystem, digital expertise, the responsible utilization of AI, and life-long, self-determined learning.”
