In Germany, apprenticeship is a joint course of professional training that combines a practical part and theoretical foundations. The practical part takes place in a company or institute, while basic theoretical training is provided by state-run schools ("Berufsschule").
A completed apprenticeship qualifies a person to work in their chosen profession.
Applicants for an apprenticeship at MPIA should be fluent in German. Further information can be found on our German webpages under Ausbildungsplätze.
