Communication<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Communication type<\/h3>\n

Communication is always open, fair and transparent for everyone involved.
\nThe focus is on a family style, true to the motto “Once ZDS, always ZDS”<\/p>\n<\/div>

Communication processes<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n

To ensure the efficiency of our internal and external communication processes, we announce relevant dates (e.g. inspection dates, trade fair visits) at an early stage. There is also a clear distribution of tasks and the regular use of social media channels.<\/p>\n

Our customers are advised in detail and involved in the decision-making process.<\/p>\n

We attach great importance to the exchange of experience with our partners and to appropriate and regular feedback measures, e.g. through presentations of work results, project work and product development.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Teaching staff<\/h3>\n

Our teaching staff is characterized by a high standard of technical know-how, which is secured and deepened through the many years of industry experience of many colleagues. We maintain and improve our teaching skills through regular further training in didactic, methodological and media topics. Each teacher sees themselves as a point of contact for all matters and therefore takes on tasks in the areas of advising, supporting and mediating. We also take our role model function very seriously.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Technical equipment<\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n

We attach great importance to modern technical equipment that, among other things, does justice to digital progress.

We ensure short and fast decision-making processes. The clear distribution of tasks speeds up organizational processes and increases transparency.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/h3>\n
