New training chapter in Reinickendorf: A look at the future of the district office

On September 2, 2023, 20 new trainees started in the Reinickendorf district office, an event that is of great importance not only for young people, but also for the entire community. With the official greeting by district mayor Emine Demirbüken-Wegner (CDU) in the historic hall of the district council, the question arises as to what effects this start of training could have on the administration and the region.

In a year in which 880 applications were received, the best could be selected from this large number. The training course for 2024 comprises various professions: 13 administrative assistants, gardeners, maintenance and specialist for media and information services. In addition, four dual students, including two in the “Public Administration” course, will also take up their training in the administration from October 1.

This development is particularly important because in the next few years many of the experienced employees will leave the service due to age; Therefore, a personnel requirement of around 30 percent is expected. The new trainees are not only trained in a stable industry, but can also expect good advancement opportunities. "Training in the Reinickendorf district office is carried out by a high level of commitment and offers an exciting diversity," said the mayor.

The importance of such training programs is also evident in the context of larger social trends. In times when digital transformation and demographic change represent major challenges, it is crucial to promote young talents and prepare them accordingly for the developments of the administration. The new trainees are therefore part of a comprehensive strategy that also drives the digitization of the authorities and is intended to improve the service for citizens.

The mayor's welcome speech was not only recognized by the achievements of the new trainees, but also a call to their association with the existing team. "You are very welcome in our footstep team," she called to the young people. In this way, the district office shows that it works in a cooperative and supportive environment in which both the new and the experienced colleagues are given the opportunity to learn from each other.

In summary, it can be said that the start of training is not only an important milestone for the new trainees, but also for the entire administration of Reinickendorf. It is a sign of change and adaptation to future challenges. The integration of the new specialists will be crucial to provide effective and modern service for citizens and at the same time support the sustainable development of the region.
