Future Day in Gemünden: Students discover the world of crafts!
Craftsmanship is booming, and not just in the workshops, but also in school classes! On June 25, 2025, the eighth graders of the Theodosius Florentini School in Gemünden spent an exciting day of lessons in the learning workshop of the Chamber of Crafts in Würzburg. This event was tough and covered a wide range of topics. From “All about the car” to creative projects like “Delicacies for Father’s Day” or “Make a flower pot out of a gutter” there was something for everyone. The students were enthusiastic and would like it to be repeated next school year, as Mainpost reports.
The workshop on automotive mechatronics was particularly interesting. Here the participants not only gained insights into the profession of automotive mechatronics technician, but were also able to get active. The workshop included exciting practical exercises, such as a competition in changing the tires of a small electric car. The students learned the basics of vehicle maintenance and learned about the dual training, which lasts 3.5 years. During this time you can expect to earn around 1400 euros gross, as hwk-ufr.de quotes.
Career prospects and further training
Automotive mechatronics technicians are - there's no mistaking it - essential specialists when it comes to maintaining and upgrading vehicles. They know how to analyze and correct malfunctions and errors. From the second year of training, trainees can specialize in various areas: from body technology to high-voltage technology. The automotive trade therefore offers a wealth of professional opportunities and the chance to continue training, which is impressively described by handwerk.de.
After training, many doors are open to graduates: you can start out as a journeyman in various companies, complete further professional training or even acquire the coveted master craftsman's certificate. With the master's certificate you can not only run your own business, but also train apprentices, which makes the automotive trade a particularly attractive career path.
Overall, the visit to the learning workshop was a complete success and showed the students that crafts not only make a significant contribution to society, but also open up many exciting perspectives. Anyone interested in technology has every opportunity here, and that's what makes the students shine!
