One of the main components of the Horizon Group and a major key to its 26 years of success is the number of skilled and dedicated employees on Horizon team. Horizon features experienced technicians and carpenters, some of them can even be called masters, as well as a professional design department and customer service team.

In order to cultivate experience in these fields, Horizon offers yearly internship opportunities for carpentry students, or students in related skill sets, so that they may study under practiced craftsmen and eventually become masters themselves.

Horizon has also cooperated with the Taiwan government and their training center in helping to develop future craftsman – recently, Horizon hosted the center’s woodworking students at its shipyard, where they were able to talk first-hand with Horizon wood masters and learn about woodworking at Horizon.

Horizon hopes these efforts will inspire more students and young professionals to follow the path towards this incredible craft.
