Testimonials.

My name is Andreas, and I’m in my first year of training as an IT Specialist for System Integration in Leingarten.

Some of my tasks include client installation, assigning permissions and shares, and even installing and commissioning servers.

The Leingarten location has a great working atmosphere, and I feel very comfortable here. The training provides new challenges every day, so it’s never boring.

At Knipping, we work with modern technologies such as Microsoft 365 and the latest Lenovo laptop generation.

There are also regular and exciting trainee events, like go-kart racing or visits to a high ropes course.

I can highly recommend the training at Knipping because you’re integrated into the working world from the very beginning, gain many IT skills, and are well-prepared for the workplace of tomorrow.

I started my training as an ‘IT Specialist for System Integration’ at Knipping Kunststofftechnik Gessmann GmbH in September 2021.

My primary training location is the Leingarten site, but you also get the opportunity to visit our other locations, such as Talheim.

I’m now in my second year of training and recently completed my intermediate school exam. So far, I’ve had consistently positive experiences.

During a short internship, I found the working atmosphere very pleasant, which is why I decided to start my training here.

I was warmly welcomed by the team, the range of tasks is diverse, and you get to work with many different people.

In addition, trainee events are organized regularly. One of my personal highlights was the go-karting activity.
