Papenburg, 01.09.2026 –

On September 1, they began their training in 14 different professions at MEYER WERFT and the MEYER Group companies EMS PreCab and EMS Maritime Services. On Monday evening, they were officially welcomed by their trainers, the Works Council and André Walter, CEO of MEYER WERFT.
