The training partner Festo Didactic: specialists for companies in China
There is a constantly growing need for qualified professionals in China. Even now, over ninety percent of Chinese businesses are already experiencing massive shortfalls in the recruitment of qualified staff. As a world leader in industrial education and training, Festo, a partner that is much in demand in China, exports the dual system of training and higher education - made in Germany - as a successful model. Festo Didactic supports over 500 training partners, universities and industrial training centres - from basic courses to the turnkey equipment of technical learning centres.
