If you stop learning, you’ll fall behind
Competence is not a static state. It must be continuously built up and developed through ongoing training, targeted professional development and lifelong learning. Those who invest in knowledge today not only secure tomorrow’s economic success, but also strengthen Austria’s position as a business location in the long term.
Quality Austria: Knowledge that makes a difference
As an Austrian organisation for certification, training and skills development, Quality Austria supports companies and professionals in achieving the highest quality standards and achieving sustainable success. Through the Quality Austria Academy, it offers a comprehensive training and further education programme that imparts practical specialist knowledge and empowers people to master new challenges competently.
Topics range from quality management and health and safety at work, through environmental management and sustainability, to sector-specific qualifications. In this way, Quality Austria makes an important contribution to the further development of the Austrian economy.
10% bonus for 100% future
Through a special initiative, Quality Austria is now sending a clear signal in support of strengthening Austria as a business location: under the motto ‘Take action rather than wait and see’, the Quality Austria Academy is offering an ‘Austria Bonus’ of 10 per cent on training courses taking place this year, valid until the end of 2026. The offer is designed to motivate companies and employees to invest specifically in further training and to build on existing skills.
When further training benefits society as a whole
The benefits of this initiative extend far beyond individual companies. This is because further training has a positive impact on society as a whole. Well-trained people develop innovative solutions, improve work processes and help to use resources more efficiently.
Qualifications in occupational safety help to prevent accidents and protect employees’ health. Knowledge of sustainability and environmental management supports the responsible use of natural resources. Improved quality standards, in turn, enhance the safety and reliability of products and services, from which everyone ultimately benefits.
Greater skills. More opportunities. A better quality of life.
At the same time, continuous professional development enhances employability, opens up new career prospects and makes it easier to cope with change. Businesses remain competitive, jobs are secured in the long term and regional value creation is promoted.
This creates a virtuous circle: greater skills lead to better performance, more innovation and greater economic stability, and thus to greater prosperity, security and quality of life for society.
#It’s brilliant when a relatively small investment in the further training of individuals generates significant and lasting added value for businesses, the economy and society as a whole.
