In the last 30 years, the Ruhr area, Germany’s former heart of the industrial production, has had to deal with structural economic changes. In line with this, at the beginning, Gewerkstatt offered vocational training and education courses in various professions for young unemployed persons. Main target was to create entrepreneurship skills.
Furthermore, in order to give these young people an opportunity to enter the job market; we started up various small businesses where the participants could work after the training courses, Chrysler dealer in Bochum, Neon-glass-blow Company in Essen, Electric installation enterprise and, lastly, the Restaurant Henrichs in Hattingen in ; The main concentration and field of action for our vocational training and education programs has been the service sector. Therefore, we set up a Conference Centre (BOGATA) and a guesthouse (58 beds) which also offer practical training facilities. Since 1985, over 2500 participants have joined in our various courses on vocational trainings or in related projects.
In the last years, we have integrated training and education for other specific target groups, such as women returning to work, unskilled and semi-skilled workers, longterm unemployed persons and foreign nationals.
