Career exploration

"Kein Abschluss ohne Anschluss" (KAoA) - with this goal, North Rhine-Westphalia is shaping the transition from school to training and university. The statewide transition system ensures that young people receive support early on in their career orientation, in choosing a career and in entering vocational training or university. The aim is to offer all young people a follow-up perspective for vocational training or study as quickly as possible after leaving school and to avoid unnecessary waiting loops through effective coordination. Career exploration days take place in the 8th grade and are one-day internships in which students spend a day exploring a vocational field. The aim is to give them a first insight into the world of work and to gain important experience for their future career.

We at Vaillant also offer the opportunity to explore occupational fields. Via the registration portals of the cities, you can register directly for one of our offers (for Remscheid here).
