The prospects for young people in the craft are promising. Like Lokalplus , the craft offers numerous training and career opportunities. For students of the final classes who are looking for a training company in 2025, the “Check Das Handwerk” campaign takes place at the end of January. At this event, interested parties have the opportunity to collect important information and make contact with potential training companies.

The organizers of this initiative are the Chamber of Crafts South Westphalia, the Siegen Agency and the district of Olpe. Registrations are already running through the schools to ensure an optimal flow of information. It is particularly emphasized that parents and custodians act as an important partner in the transition from school to work. Therefore, you are cordially invited to take part in a "talk with the craft". This will take place online on Tuesday, January 14th, from 6 p.m. to 7.30 p.m.

The importance of craft in Germany

The craft is considered one of the most versatile economic areas in Germany. Currently, according to ZDH , more than 1,037,073 companies are entered in the craft roles and in the directory of the craft-like business. Around 5.6 million people are employed in the craft, which corresponds to around 12.2 percent of all employees in Germany.

The importance of the craft is also evident in the training landscape: approx. 343,000 young people are currently receiving qualified training in craft, which is 28.2 percent of all trainees in Germany. This makes it clear that the craft plays a central role in vocational training and offers numerous perspectives.

economic relevance

In 2023, German craft generated sales of around 766.2 billion euros (without VAT). This underlines the economic relevance of this industry, which mainly consists of small and medium -sized companies. These companies form the core of the German economy and contribute to the fulfillment of individual customer requests through their flexible and creative range of goods and services.

In summary, it can be seen that the craft not only offers a variety of training positions, but also represents an important support in the German economy. With initiatives such as "Check Das Handwerk" and the upcoming online talk, the industry actively contributes to accompanying young people into their professional future.
