WECHSELSPANNUNG – Der BranchenpodcastBFE – DIGITALES KOMPETENZZENTRUM DES HANDWERKSJUNG im Gespräch mit Thorsten Janßen
Thorsten Janßen ist Direktor des BFE, dem Bundetechnologiezentrum für Elektro- und Informationstechnik in Oldenburg. Das BFE gehört zu den bekanntesten und renommiertesten Bildungseinrichtungen in Deutschland. Die Corona-Krise stellte das Unternehmen vor eine der größten Herausforderungen seiner Geschichte. Als digitales Kompetenzzentrum des Handwerks wollte man den Stillstand des Lehrbetriebs natürlich nicht so einfach hinnehmen. Innerhalb von nur einer Woche wurde er auf "Online" umgestellt. Doch das BFE kann noch mehr: neben der Digitalisierung im Handwerk gehört auch die Vermittlung neuester Entwicklungen der Elektrotechnik zu seiner Kernkompetenz.
