Vocational education

For trainers and apprentices

A Cambridge certificate alongside the federal VET diploma opens doors — for the first job after the apprenticeship and for the vocational baccalaureate.

Trainers and training companies

Register apprentices together

You register a whole intake at once. We schedule the date so that it fits the rhythm of the vocational school.

  • Block registration and a single invoice to the company
  • A date outside the vocational school's own exam periods
  • An overview of the results for the training management

  • Recognised alongside the federal VET diploma
  • Helps when moving on to a university of applied sciences
  • No expiry date

Common questions

What schools ask us most often

01How many candidates do you need to come to our school?

From ten candidates we run the exam at your site. Smaller groups are registered together for a date at one of our twelve exam venues.

02What does the school have to provide?

Suitable rooms for the written and the speaking parts. We bring the invigilation, the exam materials and the examiners.

03Who pays — the school or the parents?

Either works. We issue a single invoice to the school or individual invoices to the parents, depending on how you organise it.

04How do we prepare the class?

With the free mock exams and the “For Schools” free test in your lessons. On request we run a complete exam simulation with the class beforehand.

05Are the exams suitable for apprentices in vocational education?

Yes. B1 Preliminary and B2 First are recognised as an additional qualification alongside the federal VET diploma. Training companies register their apprentices together, and the date follows the vocational school calendar.
