What Does “Apprenticeship” Mean?
In Germany, Switzerland, and parts of other European countries, an apprenticeship is a well-established pathway into professional life. It combines two key elements:
- Practical training in a company, where apprentices actively contribute from day one.
- Theoretical education at a vocational school, where they gain the technical and theoretical foundations of their profession.
An apprenticeship typically lasts three to four years, leads to an officially recognized qualification, and serves as a direct entry into the professional world.
