After 18 months of construction, the FACC Academy in Reichersberg has started operations. The training facility of the international aviation company FACC is intended to offer targeted training for existing employees and enable comprehensive onboarding for new employees. The aim is to combat the shortage of skilled workers and to further develop the workforce through qualification measures.
Five modern training rooms and the technical "Sky Lab" are available on an area of around 500 square meters. Over 250 courses are planned each year, including specialist training for the aviation industry and management training. The Academy is also intended to be an open forum for exchange and cooperation within the workforce.
Particular attention is paid to integration: free language courses are offered to promote cooperation between employees from over 50 nations. Around 160 people are currently taking advantage of this offer. FACC is thus underlining the importance of diversity and sustainable integration in order to strengthen the company's innovative strength.
The initiative is part of numerous measures with which FACC is stimulating the labor market, including cooperation with educational institutions and training programs in future-oriented professional fields such as process engineering and IT.
