What is Ausbildung?
Ausbildung is a vocational training pathway in Germany that brings together theoretical learning and practical experience. It can be an option for students who want to build occupational skills while learning in a work-focused setting.
Training areas vary. Nursing and other healthcare roles, engineering, business and information technology are examples students may explore.
Check your preparation
Begin by confirming that your school qualifications match the programme you are considering. German language skills are an important part of preparing for study and daily life, and each programme can set its own expectations.
Requirements can differ between employers and training providers. Verify the current criteria, documents and application dates for each opportunity.
Plan your application
Research training options that fit your interests, prepare your academic records and résumé, and make a realistic timeline for language study and applications. Be ready to follow the specific selection process used by each provider.
