Vocational and educational orientation in Germany

Overview

Vocational and educational fairs are being held across Germany to provide students and young people with direct access to career paths, apprenticeships, and academic institutions.

In Neuhausen, the eighth ‘Ausbildungsmesse im Biet’ featured 54 training companies and approximately 180 professional fields, attracting more visitors than the previous year. In Berlin, HTW Berlin received the ‘Stuzubi Star’ award at a study and apprenticeship fair for its information quality and presentation.

Further career orientation efforts include a vocational information fair hosted by EBK Neuss, featuring participants such as Henkel, CBS International Business School, and the City of Neuss. To support these efforts, the Federal Employment Agency maintains the BERUFENET database, while the Federal Institute for Vocational Training (BIBB) continues to publish a directory of recognized occupations, which for 2026 includes 324 officially recognized professions.

Recent developments include a career choice parcours organized by OK Ausbildung e. V. in Waldbröl, which involves approximately 510 students from four local schools and 15 companies. This event allows participants to test over 33 different professions, including nursing, mechatronics, and IT. Additionally, in Bad Waldsee, 38 young farmers and domestic workers received vocational training certificates, with officials noting the essential nature of these roles in an era of artificial intelligence.
