For its internally developed training concept EDUCATION for EXCELLENCE (E4E), LAMILUX won the German Human Resources Management Award 2022. The award ceremony took place in Cologne on September 12, where personnel officer Neetje Brandt accepted the prize for E4E. E4E supports the personal development of the trainees and trains their social and key skills.
About E4E
LAMILUX's E4E program has already received several awards. In addition to the classic vocational training, the trainees are also supported in their social and personal skills. Through voluntary work, they learn to take responsibility for themselves and others and to actively shape society. For example, they train their organizational skills through special projects in the first year of their apprenticeship; in the second year, the focus is on helping activities. They are given one hour of paid time off per week for their projects. These include organizing cinema shows for children and senior citizens, PC sponsorships or homework supervision.
LAMILUX Managing Director Dr. Dorothee Strunz initiated the E4E training concept in 2010.
"With our training concept, we succeed in providing young people with key skills that will help them in both their private and professional lives," says Strunz.
