Apprenticeship training at SWAROVSKI OPTIK


In 1999, the United Nations initiated the "International Youth Day" to highlight the importance of young people and raise awareness for cultural and legal issues surrounding youth.

1.2 billion people worldwide are between 15 and 24 years old, which is 16 percent of the world's population. Accordingly, the future of the Earth will depend to a large extent on the prospects and opportunities these young people have.

Responsibility towards the next generation

We at SWAROVSKI OPTIK were and are aware of the great responsibility we have towards the next generation. This is why we have been training apprentices in our own training workshops here in Absam since the company was founded in 1949 in the fields of cutting technology, and precision optics. In 2020, 24 young people will be completing their apprenticeship with us. During the last 70+ years, 347 apprentices have been able to start their careers after a solid training.

The apprenticeship starts at the age of 15 and lasts 3.5 years. We are very happy to be able to offer all those who successfully complete their training at SWAROVSKI OPTIK a permanent job with us, allowing us to build on the knowledge, experience, talent, and skills they have acquired.

Our new apprentices will start their training in September and we would like to extend a warm welcome to them.
