Business and education

Demographic change and advancing digitalization are significantly changing the German labour market. The coal phase-out in the Rhenish mining area means that qualified specialists will have to look for jobs in new industrial companies. 

In the future, the digital economy will play an increasingly important role in Grevenbroich and thus also shape the employment landscape. The ongoing trend towards digitalization is opening up new career opportunities and future-oriented jobs. Many employees are faced with the challenge of adapting to the new requirements. Through targeted qualification measures and further training, these changes can be used as an opportunity and at the same time strengthen the labor market with well-trained specialists.
