Kindergarten Training Initiated by Sparkasse Bottrop: Social Day Involvement
In the heart of the city garden, the AWO kindergarten played host to a unique event as Sparkasse Bottrop welcomed its new apprentices. This social day, part of the introductory week, offered the young people an opportunity to get to know their fellow apprentices and experience a kindergarten environment.
The day was significant for Sparkasse, which values training as a crucial tool for addressing the growing need for skilled workers. The bank emphasizes security, a long-term career perspective, and numerous development opportunities for its young talent. Many long-serving employees at Sparkasse Bottrop started their careers as apprentices, a testament to the bank's commitment to nurturing homegrown talent.
The training supervisor of the apprentices is Denise Teigelkamp, who oversaw the social day. The event was highlighted by the presidents of Sparkasse, Bärbel Doberg and Jan Schäfer, at the Sparkasse's training center. Jan Schäfer, a member of the Sparkasse's board, added that each apprentice has opportunities for development within the company. Some of the long-serving employees who started as apprentices now hold management positions.
The social day provided extraordinary impressions for the new Sparkasse apprentices. The day was not just about fun and games, but also offered insights into the bank's values and commitment to its employees. The group of young people in the photo includes Bärbel Doberg, Denise Teigelkamp, Jan Schäfer, Marc Reuschenbach, Kevin Plahuta, Palkpreet Kaur Ghotra, Eren Ergunbas, Dilan Mutlu.

General knowledge about Sparkasse apprenticeship programs suggests they typically include a combination of practical work experience within various departments of the bank and theoretical learning at a vocational school (Berufsschule). Training usually lasts about 2.5 to 3 years, covering banking operations, customer advisory services, and financial products. Apprentices gain skills in customer consultation, financial analysis, and administrative tasks. After completing the apprenticeship, apprentices often have opportunities to continue working with the Sparkasse in roles such as banking advisors, customer service specialists, or in internal departments. Career development may include further training, specialization, or studying while working (e.g., part-time degree programs or certifications).
- Denise Teigelkamp, the training supervisor of the apprentices, guided the group through a social day focused on education-and-self-development and personal-growth, allowing the new apprentices to learn about Sparkasse's values and commitment to their employees.
- Each Sparkasse apprentice has the opportunity to participate in personal-growth and learning experiences, which Sparkasse prioritizes as essential for long-term career perspectives and development opportunities within the company.
