Start of the 2026 Apprenticeship Program at UnionStahl: New Apprentices Begin Their Careers

The new class of apprentices has begun at UnionStahl: Eight young people are starting their professional careers at the company this year. Across five different apprenticeship programs, they will have the opportunity to gain practical experience, take on responsibility, and develop both professionally and personally.

For the new apprentices, the start of their training marks an important step into a new phase of life—and it is also a special moment for UnionStahl. Through this training program, the company is investing in the development of its own young talent and, in turn, in its future.

Five apprenticeship programs, many opportunities

At the start of the 2026 apprenticeship cycle, the new apprentices will begin their training in the following fields:

• Machining Technician
• Design Mechanic
• Machine and Plant Operator
• Technical Product Designer
• Business Administrator for Wholesale and Foreign Trade Management

This covers technical, industrial, and business-related apprenticeship programs. Depending on their chosen apprenticeship, the young professionals gain exposure to various departments and tasks at UnionStahl, gaining valuable experience in the process.

Supporting the Next Generation and Shaping the Future

A total of 26 apprentices are currently completing their training at UnionStahl. They are in various years of their training and work in different departments, and are mentored by experienced colleagues throughout their training.

In addition to technical training, personal development is also a key focus. Working independently, teamwork, and the practical handling of daily tasks are important components of the training program.

For UnionStahl, vocational training is more than just a stepping stone into the workforce: it offers young people opportunities for the future while also laying the foundation for developing the company’s own next generation of talent.

A new class begins

With the start of the 2026 training program, an exciting time filled with many new experiences and challenges begins for the eight new trainees. We look forward to supporting them on their journey and giving them the opportunity to contribute their skills and continue to develop them.

We extend a warm welcome to our new apprentices and wish them a successful start and a rewarding apprenticeship at UnionStahl.
