#2 Why a vocational Training?
The German dual training system is seen a worldwide success model through its combination of theory and practice. A dual or vocational training, also called apprenticeship, is a great opportunity for a successful entry into the working life and manifold career chances. You receive a training salary from day one. There is a great demand for trained specialists in German companies.
