Review of the First Cohort

Recognized Certification Training

The first cohort completed an intensive one-year program, alternating theoretical courses (techniques, safety, industrial drawing) with hands-on workshop practice. The apprentices acquired key skills such as blueprint reading, mastery of various welding processes, and dimensional inspection of parts.

Under the supervision of experienced trainers, they also learned to meet the industry's demanding standards and work on real projects at the Lauterbourg plant. Dominique Loebs, Training Manager, shares his experience:

"I am proud to have witnessed and contributed to this incredible journey, and to have had the opportunity to support future welders in mastering a profession that is a true passion for me."

Passing on Values

Beyond technical expertise, this training program instilled essential values: rigor, commitment, solidarity, and team spirit. As expressed by graduate Haithem Ouederni:

"This training gave me confidence in myself and allowed me to discover an exciting profession. Today, I am proud to contribute to large-scale projects."

Another graduate, Ivan Goxes, shares his experience:

"Thanks to the Academy, I was able to acquire strong skills in industrial welding."
