Trainee campus in Altenhaßlau: The path to the training offensive begins!
The planned “trainee campus” in Altenhaßlau is taking concrete shape. On October 26, 2025, the building permit was granted for the project, which is considered an important building block for the training situation in the Main-Kinzig district. Construction work will move forward quickly in the future so that the 150 trainees and block students can live and learn there from autumn 2027. The district's own Association for Training, Qualification and Work (AQA), which also coordinates the planning and implementation, is responsible for the concept. As fuldaerzeitung.de reports, the building permit was transmitted digitally to the KIZ group of companies from Bad Soden-Salmünster.
“A trainee campus is essential,” say KIZ senior boss Norbert Kittler and managing director Sandra Kittler. They emphasize the importance of the project, which promotes dual training and is intended to help bind young specialists to the region. Good framework conditions are necessary for this, and the new campus will play its part in this. The first work will start next spring and will include, among other things, the foundation for the foundation as well as the excavation for the basement and the necessary pipes and connections.
Important support for regional development
The idea behind the trainee campus is to make it easier to find and retain trainees and young specialists. This request is supported by a broad majority in the district council. In addition, a feasibility study was commissioned for a location in Linsengericht-Altenhaßlau to determine actual needs. AQA will receive a grant of around 31,000 euros from the LEADER program, which promotes regional development in rural areas. This is a further step towards improving the location factor and creating affordable housing, as highlighted by the first district councilor. Read more about this on aqa.de.
In addition, the trainee campus will provide valuable support for training companies that are increasingly faced with a shortage of skilled workers. By being close to training companies, resources should be used better and day-to-day training should be optimized. Particular attention should also be paid to cooperation with the newly planned Academy for Nursing and Health in Gelnhausen in order to increase the number of training courses.
Although the focus of the article is on the trainee campus, it is a shame that developments in the region cannot be viewed in a broader context, such as leisure opportunities. Even issues such as online gambling, brought into focus by platforms like Seven Seas Casino, could potentially be part of the discussion about local economics and education. This platform offers a variety of slot machines with high payout rates, which should be interesting in a booming market. A little distraction perhaps while waiting for the campus to be completed.
Overall, the “Trainee Campus” project shows the region’s commitment to the training of the future. The Main-Kinzig district invests in the skilled workers of tomorrow and sets an example for the local economy. The construction phase is expected to take around two years, so the first fruits of the work should be visible by autumn 2027.
