The aim of the job center, employment agency and the ISE language and vocational training center in Amberg was to remedy the staff shortage. This special retraining offer was aimed at job seekers, especially people with a migration background and refugees.
The fact that this job in warehouse logistics is no longer the domain of men was also reflected in the composition of the group of participants, three of the four participants being female. They had to go to school under difficult conditions, figuratively speaking, because when the starting bell rang for their retraining on March 16, 2020, the first pandemic-related lockdown also began.
The unemployment rate of the individual participants in such courses usually lasts for very different periods, with most of them not having found work for a long time. In the new course, men and women from very different nations came to school: in addition to Germans, there were also participants from Syria, Iraq, Slovakia, Kazakhstan and Romania.
On the mountain. (usc) Joy and pride were reflected in the faces of the twelve men and women from ten different nations when they received their “nursing assistant” certificate at the ISE Language and Vocational Training Center after almost ten months of qualification measures funded by the European Social Fund (ESF). were allowed. This course also had to overcome Corona hurdles.
On the mountain. (usc) The course participants come from Kazakhstan, Brazil, Russia, Eritrea, Iraq, the Philippines and Germany and have the career goal of becoming a specialist in the hospitality industry with an IHK degree. They created the basis for this with the one-year practical pre-qualification at the ISE language and vocational training center in Amberg. At the same time, some interested parties began pre-qualification in the HoGa area (hotel and catering industry).
On the mountain. (usc) Even though bus travel is currently suffering from Corona restrictions, bus and transport companies are still looking for young drivers. There is great interest in this among refugees, migrants and locals. The basic training for obtaining a driving license takes place at the ISE language and vocational training center, supported by the job center and the employment agency.

On the mountain. (usc) Three years ago, nine women and two men decided to go back to nursing school at ISE. Now you have your long-awaited exam in your pocket. With enthusiasm and perseverance, they managed to graduate as geriatric nurses, even under difficult Corona conditions. At the same time, eight women and six men completed their one-year training to become geriatric care assistants. For the one-year training that is now beginning, the school is urgently looking for training positions at care facilities and social centers.
On the mountain. (usc) The trainers at the ISE language and vocational training center paid the utmost respect to the eleven successful participants in the retraining program in the training occupation of warehouse logistics specialist and to the seven men and women who passed the IHK final examination in the profession of “warehouse specialist”. The proportion of people with a migrant background here was almost 80 percent.
