BMW Group nurtures talents and strengths; World Youth Skills Day.

Munich, July 2024 – At the BMW Group’s Munich site, a powerful symbol is emerging: the new Talent Campus. Soon to become the company’s education centre, the Campus will provide training and professional development for some 40,000 employees in Munich – including 900 apprentices and 300 participants on young talent programmes. The state-of-the-art building will include training spaces with the latest technologies for innovative learning, as well as workshops and a public café. It will show clearly the importance of training and lifelong learning at the BMW Group. Professional training and lifelong learning are essential for the company’s successful transition to electric, digital, circular mobility. Education is key not just to staying innovative and competitive but also for employees’ future prospects in the fast-changing world of work.

World Youth Skills Day, the BMW Group will be raising awareness of the many opportunities and prospects for upskilling provided by the range of entry-level training courses and continuing professional development (CPD).

The BMW Group offers young people a wide range of employment prospects in a variety of exciting skill areas. Entry-level training includes internships, apprenticeships, student apprenticeships and young talent programmes for outstanding school, university and PhD students as well as graduates.

The training programmes focus primarily on electronics and automation, IT and e-mobility, with some 30 apprenticeship programmes and about 20 student apprenticeships in STEM subjects available worldwide. Across the globe, the BMW Group fosters about 5,200 young talents, with approx. 1,200 apprenticeship places and 140 places on young talent programmes at BMW AG in Germany alone.

There’s one thing all the programmes have in common: a focus on developing talents and nurturing personal strengths while adopting a holistic approach to education that takes into account the learners’ individual personalities.
