"We are offering digital speed dating to reach young people during the pandemic," said Dr. Malte Heyne, Chief Executive Officer of the Chamber of Commerce. The coronavirus-induced crisis has exacerbated the skilled labor situation. "Vocationally trained specialists will be in short supply in the future. We must do everything possible now to make vocational training even more attractive." Around 55 firms offering 44 different occupations based on vocational training are expected to take part in the digital session.
