My name is Till Grella. I come from Wil and am 26 years old. I originally trained as a chef. I later completed further training as a technical salesman. Today I work in sales at the Swiss Life insurance group.
I attended the BZWU continuing education course in technical business management and graduated with a federal certificate. I looked into the school from a geographical perspective. I then attended an information evening, after which I was convinced that BZWU was the right school for me.
I opted for the technical business management assistant course because it is industry-independent. This means that I don't have to commit myself to a specific industry, but instead have a wide range of industries and career opportunities open to me afterwards.
I chose the BZWU school because it is close to my place of work and my home. This means I don't lose too much time traveling. I was also impressed by the lecturers at the technical business management assistant information evening, the information they provided in their presentations and the personal motivation they brought to the job.
On the one hand, it is certainly the theoretical part of the technical business management assistant apprenticeship that provides you with a lot of new knowledge. But you also develop personally during the apprenticeship. A lot happens during these two and a half years, both at work and in your private life. In my opinion, it's the overall package that helps you progress.
The Technical Business Management course certainly helped me in my transition from the kitchen to the office. Both professionally and personally. The training is broadly based and I think there will rarely be a job that is perfectly tailored to it. Everyone can pick out the areas that will help them progress in their job. I was undoubtedly able to benefit from this. The motivation for further training and the perseverance in learning have certainly also contributed to my further development.
What I particularly liked about the Technical Business Management Assistant course was the variety of topics covered. Logically, this meant that not all topics could be covered in depth. However, the topics that were relevant to me were covered in depth. The lecturers responded to questions and aspects. For me, the overall package at BZWU was just right.
The challenges I faced during my further training as a technical business administrator had to do with me as a person. My biggest challenge was a new job that required more time and attending school at the same time. Fortunately, there are also situations in life where the school aspect is a little easier. And then sometimes a little harder. It's challenging to keep going with the technical business management training - even when there are adversities or when you might no longer urgently need school for your new job.
The technical business management assistant apprenticeship with a federal certificate is of course well known. Also on the employer side. And it is very popular with many people. Because the qualification also stands for real commitment, learning ability and perseverance.
My satisfaction has certainly increased with the further training as a technical business administrator, as I was no longer completely satisfied in my job as a chef. I can now use the new skills I have acquired on a daily basis. As I now have a sound knowledge of many topics, I am also more satisfied. I can also contribute better to many discussions with friends and acquaintances.
The economic aspect of the technical business management training, such as economics or business studies, was particularly useful to me. Employee management and social skills are things you can use in life. I was also very interested in law, even if I don't need it so much in my job - but in life instead.
What I liked best about the lessons was when the lecturers involved us as participants and we were able to work on a topic together.
I can recommend the Technical Business Management Assistant course to anyone who has completed a technical or trade apprenticeship and wants to develop further. It gives you a broad basis and opens up completely new opportunities for the future.
Further training as a technical business administrator takes place over a longer period of time. Of course, the atmosphere does not always remain the same. However, as it is voluntary adult education, there is a good general atmosphere. For us, the atmosphere was mostly good.
What I liked best about the BZWU training course were the good lecturers. They responded well to the needs and wishes of the participants. They were also willing to look at certain topics from a professional point of view and work out solutions together.
My further training as a technical business administrator has helped me to develop personally. I've met lots of new people and made new friends. Logically, I now also have one more qualification that I can put on my CV. This will certainly be very helpful for my professional future. It's difficult for me to mention individual aspects here, it's the overall package of further training in technical business management that helps you progress. I would definitely do the course again and can only recommend it.
