Vocational Education
Bavaria’s highly qualified workforce is in part, derived from the internationally-acclaimed dual vocational training, combining theory with on-the-job training, as well as the quality of higher education. Few locations in the world match the vocational education quality produced in Bavaria.
Education choices include:
- Berufsschule
A dual educational system that is comprised of part-time Vocational School and part-time Company training that provides two corresponding learning locations: the school for job-related theory, and the Company for on-the-job-training. Trainees come from every type of school, including the Gymnasium and they graduate as skilled workers. Sometimes the graduates work for the company where they train, but neither the trainee nor the employer are obligated to continue the working relationship.
Berufsfachschule offers full-time courses as an alternative to the Dual System.
- Wirtschaftsschule prepares students in particular for office/administrative careers.
- Technical schools
Further professional training
- Fachschule and Fachakademie lead to middle management (e.g. as state-licensed technician or master craftsperson), to free-lance occupations or advanced careers in the social Services.
