Our further education program for 2023

Together with various training providers, we regularly put together a further training program for you. It is aimed at all employees from the areas of design, simulation, manufacturing, assembly and testing who already have experience in dealing with fiber composite components, but also those who are just getting fit for the future in this area.
The current edition for 2023 is available now.
