Prinovis trainees amongst the best

Trainees from Prinovis in Schleswig-Holstein and Hesse were awarded this year for their outstanding performance in the 2007 final exams. We’re looking at Benjamin Karpfen, rotogravure printer at Prinovis Ahrensburg, Benny Sandner, rotogravure printer at Prinovis Darmstadt and Dennis Weinberg, power electronics engineer at Prinovis Itzehoe.

Bernd Jorkisch, Deputy President of the IHK (Chamber of Commerce and Industry) Schleswig-Holstein, said in the Petri Church in Lübeck: »Today we honour 91 young specialists of the more than 10 000 trainees who completed their final exams in our country's IHK professions. These are truly the cream of the crop of our training elite.« Dr. Michael Römer, President of the IHK in Darmstadt, was also elated: »This shows how serious companies are about training and confirms the outstanding quality of our skilled personnel.«

Jorkisch and Römer thanked the companies for their great contributions to training. More than 21 700 indentures were registered in Schleswig Holstein at the end of October at the three Chambers of Commerce and Industry – a significant increase of 8.7 percent compared to last year. This was described as a top achievement, opening professional doors to young people. Also in Hesse, according to Römer, the favourable economic conditions and the steadily increasing demand for specialised staff led to a new high: the more than 3 900 new indentures represent the highest number of training graduates in 20 years.

Prinovis is impressed by the outstanding results and wishes Benjamin Karpfen, Benny Sandner und Dennis Weinberg a great start to their professional careers.
