Training and development of the employees has especially high importance at Münstermann.

Even school-leavers, who perhaps in other companies have no possibility of a sound basic training, as for example pupils from secondary schools or special school for pupils with learning difficulties, receive a chance at Münstermann.

For according to Magdalena Münstermann, 'It does not always just depend on good grades'. In addition Magdalena Münstermann has also made it her business outside the workplace to give pupils an insight into different career paths during their time at school.

Out of this the highly regarded Telgter Model has arisen for cooperation between schools and business.

Magdalena Münstermann's special commitment to in-house company training at Münstermann was rewarded with three prizes within one week.
