Vocational Training and Education System (VET)
Dual apprenticeship system
unites contents of general education with relevant occupational skills.
education takes place in school and on the job in firms.
companies are responsible for education and payment of apprentices.
VET in Germany is strongly regulated:
Firms and companies need formal permission to educate apprentices.
Assessment of formal requirements (personal and professional eligibility of the instructors) is required.
Influence of companies and business and chamber organizations on the content of occupational education is fairly high:
Establishment of new occupations.
Abolishment of obsolete and antiquated occupations.
Adjustments within existing occupations.
Realignments of existing occupations.

High occupational uniformity of workers.
comfortable screening of workers regarding their “quality”.
VET is crucial to economic development.
Occupational skills and on the job training.
Tacit knowledge: Organization of work and sociology of labor.
VET offers an equally accepted path for further individual professional development.
Possibility to enter the university system.
Sophisticated System of non academic training.
