ELECTRIC TECHNICIAN TRAINING.

Do you have manufacturing experience and have worked as a maintenance technician, but don’t have an electrical qualification? Then our electronics technician training is perfect for you!

Following this, your targeted training continues to prepare you for the challenges that arise in your daily work.
  • After completing the training, you will be employed with us as an electrical maintenance technician. Your primary tasks will include the preventative maintenance and troubleshooting of our high-tech production system. Using our advanced maintenance control system, you will monitor the optimal operation of machines, robots, and conveyors, and perform the necessary maintenance processes.

We are open to your ideas, so you will also play a significant role in optimization processes.
  • During the training, you are already part of the BMW team, so our benefits package applies during this period as well.

Maintenance team member in BMW Group Plant Debrecen.

"Despite my automotive engineering background, I lacked the specific knowledge required for the process technician role. The skill up programme, however, provided an excellent opportunity to practice on the tools and equipment that will greatly facilitate my onboarding at BMW. I consider this to be a truly unique and invaluable programme, and it also helped forge a great team, which will be a significant asset going forward."


Adrienn

"The skill-up programme brought a lot of new knowledge to me in the area of manufacturing. Although I had technical expertise as an electrician, the use of pneumatics, robotics, and PLCs was completely new to me. Within the program, I acquired comprehensive knowledge about these important industrial systems, which I will be able to utilize later as a process technician.

I would recommend this programme to others as well, as it is an excellent opportunity to expand existing knowledge and get acquainted with new and interesting areas. It can be particularly useful for those who are still searching for their own career path.

After passing the exam successfully, I am very much looking forward to starting work on the new production line and further developing my knowledge, especially in the area of PLC programming. This is what piqued my interest the most during the programme."


Máté

Maintenance team member in BMW Group Plant Debrecen.

"The skill-up programme first introduced us to the basics of occupational and electrical safety, which is essential in an industrial environment. In addition, we gained insights into the key systems used in manufacturing, such as pneumatics, PLCs, and robotics.

As a fresh graduate, I did not have any prior experience in production, but BMW offered me the opportunity to gain industrial experience at the company after completing the skill-up programme, and to further develop my career through additional training. The educational topics also aligned with my areas of interest, so I gladly took on this programme.

I recommend it to others because it provides a good foundation for working in an industrial environment. The participants from diverse backgrounds acquired a common knowledge base, and the programme also had a team-building aspect."


István

Maintenance team member in BMW Group Plant Debrecen.

"The skill-up programme is a great initiative by BMW. Although I have a mechanical engineering background, the training provided me with valuable knowledge in the areas of PLC and robotics. This serves as an excellent foundation for my further professional development in the world of e-mobility. I recommend the programme to anyone who wants to be a part of building the future."
