Vocational and Further Training

Qualified Employees Wanted
There is a great demand for qualified and skilled employees. Globalization is advancing and thus increasing international competition. German companies have to prepare themselves. Qualified and skilled employees of all branches of industry, trade and the service sector are needed. All who begin vocational training in one of the more than 250 vocational occupations in these branches stand good chances on the job market and will continue to do so in the future.

On-the-job Training
In-company training is hands-on, varied, of high quality and internationally recognized. It conveys new techniques and offers many independent tasks, and in many occupations direct contact with clients. The training allowance contributes to trainees not being financially solely dependant on their parents or the government. Most young people with vocational training find a job quickly after finishing their training, either where they were trained or at a different company. These qualified and skilled employees are highly valued and well-paid.

Further Training
After finishing vocational training, career opportunities are good. A number of further training possibilities are offered - the companies, the chambers, public and private authorities make it possible. Life-Long Learning - that's our motto! That way, the employees' knowledge is always up to date and the possibilities to do something for his/her career opportunities increase. Vocational training is a stepping stone to success. Vocational training offers a secure income and great opportunities to move on up!
