Jakob Wittholm 25, apprenticeship according to HBLVA

After graduating from the HBLVA in Vienna, Jakob fell in love with the landscape and mountains around Admont. “I came across the Admont wood industry through the professional encyclopedia and was immediately enthusiastic about the training opportunities there,” said Jakob when asked how he became aware of the Admont wood industry. He particularly likes that apprentices at Admonter benefit from their own apprentice trainer and mentor. You have the opportunity to contact them at any time if you have professional questions or personal challenges. The above-average pay is just the icing on the cake. Jakob’s technical interest knows no bounds and, thanks to his open, friendly nature, he will definitely miss one or two milestones in his professional career.
