If you are looking for vocational training in Germany, you can submit your applicant profile to vet@iberika.de and apply for vacant vocational training positions this way.

If you have already found a concrete vocational training offer in Germany you can contact us directly. Once the training company and you have reached an agreement for the first interview, you can start enjoying the programme.

In Germany, you do not just sit down and study at school. You can put what you have learnt into practice in a company right away, have a peek at the work of experts and continually improve your own skills. And the best part: you receive vocational training pay.

The programme offers you: Language courses, comprehensive advice and supervision, an internship in a company and financial support. In addition, you will always have a contact person who will assist you with occupational or personal questions and bring you into contact with others from your home country.

You can enter the programme with any school qualification. Find your dream job and enjoy the best kind of vocational training you can imagine. Of course, we hope that you will stay on and apply your expertise in Germany. But with your practical and specialised training you will also find a job in your home country, in Europe or world-wide.

• Basic knowledge of German is an advantage but not necessary.
