Your job choice is an important decision. Even more important is the way you receive training in your field of expertise. The IfT helps you to get information about vocational training and various degrees. The central focal point of our work are the fairs vocatium in Germany. Those are designed for you to meet people who already work in or are in training for jobs you are interested in.

At vocatium fairs, students get into contact with professionals who already had training / did studies in the fields of expertise that are of interest for the students. In lectures and individual interviews students get informed and might find their future profession. There are around 80 vocatium fairs annually. 

Our guides (printed and online) and our Search area help you to prepare for your talks.
