Digiscouts 2025 in Waldeck-Frankenberg
Why not use young people's interest in digitalization to make dual training in the company more attractive and at the same time gain benefits for the company? This is the idea behind the project "Trainees as digitalization scouts in companies": As part of a trainee project, at least two trainees find out where there is potential for digitalization in the company.

After all, skilled workers are in high demand.

OloV Regional Coordination
Passing of the baton at the regional OloV coordination
In the regional coordination for the implementation of the Hesse-wide OloV strategy, Ms. Lara Kurzrock has handed over the management to the managing director of the economic development agency, Ms. Barbara Eckes, this year and thus says goodbye to all regional actors of the OloV network in the Waldeck-Frankenberg district.
In order to bundle all activities that support young people on their way to training, the state of Hesse has developed a comprehensive concept: the OloV strategy. The aim of the Hessian OloV strategy is to ensure the quality of the processes in the transition from school to work and to avoid parallel structures so that young people can successfully enter their professional future.
For the Waldeck-Frankenberg district, the planning for the OloV strategy has been set for the coming year, so that the economic development agency has a basis for successfully taking over regional coordination. Based on the implementation to date in the region, the next meeting of the steering group will be organized by the OloV regional coordinator of the economic development agency, Mr. Kephas Kühn. "We will continue to pursue the goals we have set and look forward to a good collaboration with the regional players so that we can guarantee the continuation of the OloV strategy next year as well," confirms the managing director, Ms. Barbara Eckes.
Die hessenweite Strategie OloV wird gefördert von der Europäischen Union sowie aus Mitteln des Hessischen Ministeriums für Wirtschaft, Energie, Verkehr, Wohnen und ländlichen Raum und des Hessischen Ministeriums für Kultus, Bildung und Chancen.
