The new program "Stay on the ball" of the coordination office Women and Economy in the Oldenburg Münsterland is there and ensures a breath of fresh air in further training. The Vechta district informs that the brochure offers a wide range of courses and workshops that are specially tailored to the needs of women.

The coordination office has set itself the goal of supporting women in the region, be it in the field of further training, starting a business or starting up. Renate Hitz and Nancy Menke, the two responsible actors, emphasize how important it is to offer women a clear structure. "Our customers should be able to find the suitable offer for individual professional development in an uncomplicated way," explains Hitz.

content of the new program

The new booklet is packed with offers that not only cover classic areas such as IT and rhetoric, but also focus on aspects such as the balance between family and work. "We not only want to provide women with technical knowledge, but also help them to find the right balance in everyday hectic everyday life," says Menke. The focus is on personal benefits and the mediation of professional knowledge.

In the second half of the year, in addition to the already established workshops, individual consultations are also offered. This concept aims to give women the opportunity to respond directly to their questions and needs. In a constantly changing labor market, it is crucial that women have access to information and resources that support their professional development.

Financial support and advice

Another highlight for the participants is the option of applying for a grant for the course fees. Women eligible to support can be reimbursed up to 50 percent of the costs, but a maximum of 400 euros, for professional training and further education. This lowers the inhibition threshold of taking new courses and opens up opportunities for professional changes.

Renate Hitz and Nancy Menke are active at the locations in Cloppenburg, Friesoythe and Vechta, where they offer interested women to their expertise and are available for questions about their job. This support is essential to provide women in the region smoothly access to the labor market and to help them expand their skills.

The new program is a valuable resource for women who want to develop or reorient themselves professionally. Interested parties can find more information and details on the offers on the homepage at www.koordinungsstelleom.de.

new perspectives for women in the profession

The commitment of the coordination office for women and business is an important step to give women in the region the opportunity to develop their potential. With a targeted approach and a wide range of offers, the coordination office shows that they take the challenges that many women are facing nowadays. This program could serve as a model for other regions that want to master similar challenges.

relevance of further training for women

The promotion of women in vocational training is not only of individual importance, but also has far -reaching social implications. In Germany, women are still underrepresented in leadership positions and special fields, such as the MINT subjects (mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology). According to the Gender GAP Report 2022 of the World Economic Forum, gender parity in Germany is far from being achieved in the areas of education, business and politics.

An essential aspect of further training is the possibility for women to expand their professional perspectives and thus contribute to the creation of more equality in the workplace. Programs such as "stay on the ball" not only offer the possibility of further training, but also promote self -confidence and the ability to independent career design.

Current statistics on vocational training

According to a study by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) from 2021, around 30 % of women took part in professional training in Germany, while the proportion of men was around 40 %. This difference illustrates the still existing need for targeted programs for women.

The higher qualification of women not only contributes to personal development, but also has a positive effect on the economy as a whole. Companies that invest in the further training of their employees often have greater employee satisfaction and loyalty. According to a survey by the German Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DIHK), 68 % of the entrepreneurs stated that their markets have become more robust by better trained employees.

Support from regional networks

The coordination office for women and business in the Oldenburg Münsterland is part of a larger network that aims to support women in the region in their professional development. A large number of organizations and initiatives are available to provide information and resources that are crucial for the professional reorientation and further education of women.

In addition to the advisory services and workshops, the coordination office also promotes the exchange between women who experience similar challenges. Such networks can serve as valuable platforms to exchange experiences, share success stories and offer mutual support, which is of crucial importance for professional advancement and personal development.
