Andreas Bischof, head of apprenticeship at Bühler Group, was elected by the Swiss Federal Council to the extra-parliamentary Federal Vocational Training Commission (EBBK) at the end of November 2019.
He is thus the representative for vocational training matters of the Swiss association of mechanical and electrical engineering industries (MEM industries) at the federal level – a premiere for the industry.
Bischof in his function as head of apprenticeship leads 600 apprentices at 25 locations in four continents.
The Federal Council elected him to the 15-member extra-parliamentary Federal Vocational Training Commission for the term of office 2020-2023.
As the delegate of the Swiss Association of mechanical and electrical engineering industries (MEM industries), he is now the representative of a high-technology industry that trains almost 20,000 apprentices in Switzerland. At the same time, he is the first representative to become a member of the Commission for the MEM industries.
“I look forward to addressing the industry’s requirements at the federal level,” Bischof said. “In addition to expert knowledge and hands-on abilities, increasing importance is being placed on digital skills, project management, professional mobility, lifelong learning, and pronounced social competencies – and this not only for the companies but especially for the apprentices’ later careers.”
