Ausbildungsplatz

An "Ausbildungsplatz" is a training position or apprenticeship in Germany, where individuals, typically young adults, learn a specific trade or profession under the guidance of experienced professionals. This system combines hands-on work experience with classroom instruction, allowing trainees to gain practical skills while also earning a salary. These positions are crucial for vocational education, helping students transition from school to the workplace by providing real-world experience in fields such as healthcare, engineering, crafts, and business. The concept supports both the individual’s career development and the needs of the labor market.
