Vocational Training (Ausbildung) in Germany

Vocational training in Germany combines classroom learning at a vocational school with practical training in a company. You earn a salary during the training and, at the end, hold a qualification recognised in Germany. We support you from finding a suitable occupation and company to the visa process.

Who is it for?

  • Young high school graduates who want to learn a new occupation in Germany
  • Those planning a career in fields such as health care, nursing, hospitality, logistics or skilled trades
  • Those who are ready to invest time in learning German

What we offer

  • Identifying occupations that match your profile and interests
  • Searching for a training company and preparing your applications
  • A CV and cover letter in the format German companies expect
  • Interview preparation and coordination
  • Vocational training visa and formalities with the authorities

How does the process work?

You fill in the application form and upload your high school diploma.
Together we assess suitable occupations and regions.
Applications are sent to companies and interviews are scheduled.
Once the training contract is signed, your visa process begins.

Important requirements

  • Vocational training usually requires German at level B1 or higher. Some occupations require B2.
  • Your high school diploma may need to be recognised in Germany.
  • Training usually starts in August or September. We therefore recommend starting your applications one year in advance.
