Tailor-made training and ongoing mentoring support
"Every CYP trainee receives tailor-made training by combining his/her interests and aspirations with the company's needs. There is also a well-established mentoring system in place to coach trainees in non-task related areas, such as soft skills and enhanced networking opportunities. Trainee teambuilding and networking events take place on a regular basis so that trainees can share their training experiences and build
up a strong network. Even after I graduated from the program, I received follow up support for my career development."

Exciting job opportunities
"While I was a CYP trainee, I was part of the project team tasked with building a new multi-million Euro resin plant in Shanghai. What an exciting opportunity! My three main tasks were studying the finished goods filling operation concept and providing input on the filling station's design; quality control for the lab design and setup; and the design of the cleaning room. I had never been involved in an investment project of this size and was not familiar with the process. However, with strong support and help from my supervisor in Muenster and my future manager in Shanghai, I was able to quickly integrate myself into the project and had a clear picture of what my tasks are and how to deliver them."
