Ausbildung is Germany and Austria's dual vocational training system — you train with an employer 3–4 days a week and attend a vocational school the rest, earning a stipend throughout. We match B2-certified students to verified Ausbildung seats.
Ausbildung (German vocational training) typically runs 2–3.5 years. You're a registered trainee (Auszubildende/r) with an employer, paid a monthly stipend that increases each training year, while attending a Berufsschule for theory. At the end, you sit a chamber exam (IHK or HWK) for a nationally recognised qualification.
Austria runs a near-identical Lehre system, recognised across the DACH region.
Duration: 2–3.5 years · Stipend: paid monthly, rises yearly · Entry requirement: B2 German (most programs) · Outcome: nationally recognised trade qualification · Visa: Ausbildung visa, convertible to work residence permit
