AusbildungPlus - Additional qualification for trainees
The AusbildungPlus (TrainingPlus) project uses a free Internet database to provide information on training programmes which offer additional qualification and about dual courses of study (which combine university studies with vocational training) in Germany. The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The centrepiece of the AusbildungPlus project is a database that contains information on more than 39,000 training programmes offered by enterprises where some 122,900 trainees / students can currently earn qualification. AusbildungPlus is one of the largest vocational training databases in Germany.
Vocational guidance at inter-company vocational training centres and similar training facilities
Early, practice-oriented, systematic vocational guidance is being provided at inter-company vocational training centres and similar vocational training facilities to make the transition from school to 'dual' vocational training (that combines part-time vocational schooling with practical work experience) easier for youths at regular schools that provide a general education, and particularly schools that offer lower secondary school leaving certificates, and thus make an effective contribution toward reducing the number of young people who have no school-leaving qualification and/or no prospects for a training place.
