After working in road construction for ten years, I was looking for a change. That's why I decided to attend a course at the Migros Club School in Berne on "Getting started with computers". I enjoyed the course so much that I went straight on to commercial college. Right now I'm on the Technical Business Management Assistant (BP) course, which I will soon complete with a federal certificate.
I have been working in HR for two years now, where I take on various HR tasks.
The decisive reason for choosing the Technical Business Management Assistant course is that it is a generalist course and very sustainable training. In addition, as I did, after working in the construction industry, for example, you can switch directly to the technical-commercial sector and take on practically any job there. The course is very well placed in the industry.
In addition, training as a technical business administrator offers me the advantage that I can still use my ten years of professional experience in the trade sector in my day-to-day work. So this existing knowledge is by no means lost, but is still very useful to me depending on the commercial activity. For example, when it comes to technical assignments or purchases, I still have a very strong connection to the materials I used to work with on the construction site. My background in the trades also helps me time and again when planning operations or other office tasks. As a technical salesman, I now basically have a second mainstay that I can build on.
As I am currently working in human resources, the knowledge I learned at school is very useful. Thanks to my training as a technical business administrator, I know the important legal aspects and am familiar with company management. I can also call up economics content very well in my daily work. All of this helps me enormously with resource planning. I also understand my employees and the people I support better now and can help them better. For example, I have learned how to:
The technical business management course has also helped me a lot in my private life; I have become much more self-confident. Certainly also because I can already boast a number of professional successes that are related to the further training.
I would recommend that prospective graduates of the TC course complete a preliminary course on financial accounting and management accounting if they do not already have basic knowledge. This would make it much easier to start the course. I would also advise everyone to find out what the Technical Business Management Assistant course involves and what the aim of the course is before starting the course.
Yes, definitely. This generalist training gives you access to numerous exciting jobs.
Yes, I earn around CHF 1,000 - 1,500 more per month. I'm very happy with my higher salary as a technical salesperson.
I recommend the Technical Business Management Assistant course to people who do a good job in their trade, but also want to develop their technical and commercial skills. This results in the following double benefit: The knowledge gained in the technical field is not lost, but can be put to good use in the technical-commercial field.
