VOCATIONAL TRAINING IN GERMANY
(Ausbildung)
EARN WHILE YOU LEARN
If you want to settle in Germany, a good alternative to studying at university is taking part in a vocational training programme.
These training programmes usually last between 2.5 to 3.5 years.
They are either school-based and take place in a classroom (“schulische Ausbildung”) or combine classes with practical training in an establishment or company (“Duale Ausbildung”).
