Thomas Mück took over the management of TÜV NORD Akademie on 1 February and is also the designated CEO of the TÜV NORD GROUP's People & Empowerment Business Unit. He succeeds Axel Dreckschmidt, who will be leaving the Group as planned on 30 June 2026. With Thomas Mück at the helm, TÜV NORD Akademie is sending a clear signal of new beginnings, innovative strength and future viability in vocational training.

Dirk Stenkamp, Chairman of the Board of Management of TÜV NORD AG: "With Thomas Mück, an experienced and technologically adept leader is moving to the top of the business unit, who comes from quality management and confidently combines contemporary, digital forms of learning with professional expertise. I wish him personally and the entire team lasting success in his new role."

In his new role, Thomas Mück will consistently drive forward the digitalisation of TÜV NORD Akademie. This includes VR and AI-supported training formats, innovative hybrid learning models and flexible, modular forms of learning that are geared towards the real needs of companies and learners. At the same time, the internationalisation of the service portfolio is to be further expanded in order to provide even more targeted support to customers worldwide.

"Today, continuing education must be faster, more individualised and more practical, while at the same time providing orientation and security in an increasingly complex technological world," says Mück. "I want to consistently continue and expand this path with our team."

As the designated CEO of the People & Empowerment business unit, Mück deliberately puts people at the centre of everything he does. He stands for a world of learning that sees technology as an enabler and people as a decisive success factor.

Six companies pool their expertise in the business unit to make people and organisations fit to deal confidently with the technological future through precise diagnostics, sound advice and targeted further development. Among other things, the aim is to combine technological innovation with human expertise in a sustainable and responsible manner.

TÜV NORD Akademie is one of the leading training providers in German-speaking countries and part of the TÜV NORD GROUP. It supports specialists and managers in developing competences, assuming responsibility and safely shaping change.
