On Thursday, June 29, 2023 the grand opening of the new education campus in Parndorf, Burgenland took place.
The new continuing education center is operated in cooperation with the Burgenland Chamber of Commerce and WIFI Burgenland as well as the WIFI Management Forum.
We are pleased that from now on we can also offer the practice-oriented continuing education programs of our Vienna Management Academy in the Burgenland as well.
“Lifelong learning is the surest path to professional success. As the leading university of applied sciences for management and communication, FHWien der WKW offers practical continuing education at university level. Employees thus become fit for the next career leap and companies obtain highly qualified staff. I am pleased that we are now also present in Burgenland with our study programs,” explains Michael Heritsch, CEO of FHWien der WKW.
At the ceremonial opening at the new education campus, our CEO Michael Heritsch was joined by Harald Schermann, Institute Director of WIFI Burgenland, Robert Frank, Regional Chairman of the Economic Chamber, Christian Faymann, Institute Director of WIFI Wien, as well as Wolfgang Kovacs, Mayor of Parndorf, and Wolfgang Daniel, Deputy Mayor of Parndorf.
With the launch of the new continuing education center, the foundation has been laid for countering the shortage of labor and skilled workers. The wide range of courses on offer will promote the training and further education of the company’s own employees and thus strengthen employee loyalty as well as the innovative strength and competitiveness of the business location.
