Thanks to the initiative of Hans Werner Kocherscheidt, the industrial training workshop was founded in 1975 as an inter-company training facility. He accompanied and supported the development of the training shop, today's Bildungszentrum Wittgenstein (BZW), as chairman of the supervisory board. As a long-standing chairman of the industrial and forestry association Wittgenstein, the deceased advocated the interests of the regional economy. After the merger with the association of the Siegerländer Metallindustriellen e.V., which he co-initiated, he was deputy chairman of the association and member of the advisory board. For decades Hans Werner Kocherscheidt supported numerous social and cultural projects in the region. These include the Waldskulpturenweg (forest sculpture trail) the Christmas market in Bad Berleburg, the International music festival week at castle Berleburg or the reconstruction of the adventure village camp of the church district Wittgenstein in Wemlighausen. More than 50 years ago, Hans Werner Kocherscheidt belonged to the founding members of the Rotary Club Berleburg-Laasphe.
